    Tired of us chasing euro trash that don't even want to come here! Give me players that WANT to play in Houston. Thats why I like Clint Cappella. He was like "nah i aint going back there. I came here to play with the best"

    Euro teams like to refer to teams as colors

    Italian national soccer team = azzuri (blues)

    I think manchester united is the red somethings

    real madrid is the whites... he was referring to the team as the whites not being racist

    The players that "don't want to come over" don't have to come over because they're actually good and make a lot of money over there.

    Those players don't need to take a risk and come over to be on the bench, when they can be stars over there.

    Players that are eager to come over usually don't make as much and therefore need the money.

    Ok, I understand what your saying but I don't believe that it comes out of that $3M. The $3M number is a limit for the amount of cash that a team can pay as part of trades each season. The buyout assistance isn't part of a trade so it shouldn't have to come out of that $3M amount.

    Got a question. If I know an insider...does that make me an insider?

    For instance, if I go to my friends and tell them that I have some info regarding the Rockets trading for Dragic...does that make me an insider? I think so. :cool:

    I'll be spreading the word tonight.

    If you're an insider and I know another insider would I be a double insider?

    What stops organizations from searching for talent in their own city? Hell, sign someone from Fonde for $50k/year and let’s get this show on the road.

    If I respond negatively to this, does that make you less likely to share your inside information?

    Nice, but will you honestly have an update for us tonight or is this just some sort of inside joke I missed 10 pages back?

    I'd have to ask my insiders. Plowman? Cyber? Drew? Hopefully they can lead you in the right direction.

    Have you guys seen the people that drew tweets with about the Rox? It is jopat, Adeelsiddqui and some fool (atdondougan) Sad posters here equal terrible twitterers.
