    <u>Play Until 40</u>
    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Jun 15 - Eric Piatkowski, despite turning 37 in September, has no plans to retire from the Phoenix Suns.

    "Part of it is I really can't figure out what I want to do when I retire," he said. "I have some ideas. But coaches in the league I talk to tell me I can play until I'm 40.

    "Unless I suffer an injury or someone tells me they don't want me around anymore, I probably will play until I'm 40. I'm having a blast." -- Omaha World-Herald</div>

    He only played 11 games this season.

    He might aswell retire. I never realized he was this old anyway.

    Why not get paid to sit on the bench? He plays a little in practice, and because of his game, he won't get injured; he can keep shooting into his 40s. He never had a $90 million contract, so he should take as many millions away as he can get. Granted, for the good of the team I'd rather his contract be taken off, so Sarver has a tiny bit less money to pay, and maybe he'll decide to not blow up the team to save a few bucks.
