"I don't think we'd do anything less than that. They're going to ask for more than that."</p> </p> "I'm just a little hesitant that he's only had one good year," Taylor said. "We got taken by Mike James. Mike had a really good year, so we paid him the max we could under the rules, and he sure didn't come back and perform anywhere at that level." -- <font color="#000000">St. Paul Pioneer Press</font></p></div></div>
