First off, Seth- no need to apologize for focusing more on the Kernels than the big club. It's been far more interesting to follow the doings on the farm than in the Cities this year. And last year. And the year before that. And probably the next couple of years, too.... But I'm in total agreement. From years of rugby, ice hockey, and boxing, I've been on the end of a few of those. When you have that much of an investment in a part of your team- THE major part of your team, you don't take chances with his health, or even his life. It's not like we're anywhere close to playoff hunt. Besides, I'm sure they're spouting that line to keep selling what few tickets they can at this point. Please, TR, please RG, shut the guy down.
