Does any one else think that there may be some significance that Grunwald is in Houston on the same day or 2 that Olajuwons new offer was released. That article by Lopez mentioned a sign and trade. Could Dream become a Dinosaur? ------------------ I do not believe in god. And it is nice to know that I am going to hell with Hitler, and McVeigh. Although I do not know why.
I knew someone would say that. Though he is a valuable dinosaur. ------------------ I have seen much of the rest of the web. It is brutal and cruel and dark. CC.net is the light.
Well he is valuable dinosaur who is on his way out the door unfortunately. ------------------ What if I say to you that the universe is a three-legged horse, eh? What then? - Russell Hoban
I took this excerpt from an article found in tomorrow's Toronto Globe and Mail; the jist of the article states Vince Carter is about to sign a contract extension (probably) and also THIS about Hakeem (note the spelling of "center"): Negotiations with Houston Rocket veteran centre Hakeem Olajuwon are going well, with one source close to Raptors management saying Monday that a deal is near. "I'm hoping it is," the source said. "You never now until they sign, but things are looking good." The Raptors can offer Olajuwon, a 12-time all-star, a four-year contract worth $22-million a year, more than double what the Rockets had reportedly offered. "We are prepared to move as quickly as Hakeem wants to move," Grunwald said. "But we're also prepared to be patient." ------------------
That's what I would like to know. But if Dream is going to sign with Toronto, I say just completely renounce him, and sign a couple of decent big men to hold over for the year, and maybe trade for a quality big man if possible. ------------------ What if I say to you that the universe is a three-legged horse, eh? What then? - Russell Hoban
I pasted the relevant section verbatim. Maybe there was a typo. $22 mil for four years. ------------------
I didn't even notice your error ROXTXIA, for some odd reason I read it as 4 years 22 million dollars. Weird! ------------------ What if I say to you that the universe is a three-legged horse, eh? What then? - Russell Hoban
Here in Canada we spell "center" CENTRE. And we spell "color" COLOUR. And we spell "Champions" RAPTORS. Pretty cheesy, yes, but true. We sure are a cookie bunch. ps: Just take the first and the excemption and run with it. We'll both be better off ------------------
no need to be xenophobic, even if it's to dis a raptor's fan. A "un-xenophobic" rocket fan ------------------ D'oh! (_8(|) - a thought on Hakeem leaving
Art -- ...and here in The Woodlands, Texas, we call a real hockey team THE OTTAWA SENATORS!! By the way, we'll take Vince Carter AND the CN Tower as a straight-up deal. Whaddya think? ------------------ HOUSTON Rockets forever!!
"and here in The Woodlands, Texas, we call a real hockey team THE OTTAWA SENATORS!!" That's pretty good. Offcourse it would have been a little more of a stinger if the Leafs hadn't swept Ottawa in 4 in the playoffs... AS for Vince, unfortunatelly for all of you guys...Hes resigning in TO on Wednesday. And you're welcome to CN tower, Hakeem could serve the role of our new tower...However, I'd be very intrigued to know how you could deliver the CN Tower to Houston But what do you need our landmarks for...you got plently of your own, don't you...Such as....ummm...such as...dang, help me out here ------------------
Did us Americans say you Canadians could watch Seinfeld? I doubt it. And if Hakeem was a dinosaur then he would be an Allasourus or something big and timid. ------------------ "banging Shaq is a whole different expirience"-Pete Babcock Behold the power of quotation
