    (-By Chris Haynes....you think Dame's kept in contact? :) )

    I think Dame's doing an ok job straddling the line between "whiner" and "getting my story out there"...

    I'm pretty sure he'll be frustrated a bit when he's carrying the load of the team and making 22M/yr vice Nurk starting out at 29M...

    Man you sure are trying. A thing about having a shtick is mixing it up a bit. You've become too predictable... like a mediocre man.

    Anyway, Dame said the magic words. He's leaving when his contract is up. :MARIS61:

    I need a Mod to change his name to Mediocre Robot. @Minstrel - this seems right up your alley.

    Maybe he should complain about not making his teammates better, or not playing defense his first several years in the league, or taking off balance 30 foot jumpers with 20 seconds on the shot clock.
