Gary went on about this last night a bit. Wondered if there will be any punishing ramifications or whatever for his comments but I really can't see what that might amount to. Personally, I prefer Carl Everett's theories about dinosaurs. Funny memory: Years ago when we had season tickets our box mates for a year or two were Manhattan attorneys who just happened to represent Carl with his off-field issues. I couldn't get any juice out of them other than, "let's just say Mr. Everett's elevator doesn't stop at all the floors."

But knock yourselves out counting Cohen's beans with your figurative abacuses, one bean at a time. Can't we all ever just talk without this, "I'm smarter than you crap?" Just once?

I don't know if it's kontract kosher, but maybe in the offseason Uncle Steve can pull them aside and offer a lump-sum check to get them to amend the contract to remove the opt-out clause. He may not want to leave anyways, and a $20-30 million bonus might work. Maybe it's a wild-ass-kontract thought but I suppose it's also silly to worry about such things while his arm could fall off at anytime between now and then.
