Re: DIEHARD CUBS GROUP Re: Soriano whining

Lol that's what the 49er's had to do to get Terrell Owens out of town. I think
the 9ers pay him the entire time he played at Philly. sometimes it is best to
cut losses... However who in their right mind signs someone to a 15 year
contract. Pro sports career's can end in a heartbeat.

That's about the only way we're going to get rid of him is eat a large part of
his contract because as it is right now, he's un-tradeable.

We'll see what happens when new mgmt steps in, the deal should be done about
the time my son is graduating from college (he's going in the 6th grade this
fall).

Yeah, the only way we're likely to get rid of him is if we keep paying a huge
chunk of his contract for him to play somewhere else.

I don't know about you guys, but as the song goes, "I got $5 on it"!

(BTW, old dudes Geo and Mike, it's a rap song from the mid-to-late '90's) :)
