You're right tho, it's moreso disappointing than sad.. That's probably the word I was looking for.</p>
Reminds me of Eddie Griffin, but I hope this story has a happier ending. Geez, I still remember Clark ripping Vince when they were teammates in Toronto, saying how his career was over, while everyone thought he was the shit when he signed as a free agent with Sacto. Guess the tables have turned a bit.</p>
