TorontoFin said:No he didn't. He wanted to get paid.
TorontoFin said:No he didn't. He wanted to get paid. Yes Matt Roth was what we got. We would have had two second rounders if F'n Wanny & Speilman didn't trade it for AJ feeley. :fire:
Can you imagaine how that conversation went:
Rick: "Hey, andy, I hear AJ might be available."
Andy Reid: "Umm, yeah. Sure. You like him."
Rick (playing cool): "He's alright. Well, what do you want for him. Nothing too steep, he's a back-up you know."
AR: "Yeah we know. I think maybe we can get a deal done, for, say,.....
Rick: "I'll give you a third!!!"
AR (puts phone down and whispers to assistant): "Holy s--. They want to give us a third for AJ Feely."
Assistant: "Do it!! before he changes his mind!!!!"
Rick: "Andy, you there?"
AR (trying to compose himself): "Just a second, Rick."
Rick: OK andy. You wanna play hardball? Okay, a second rounder and that's it. Final offer! Andy? who's that laughing?"
AR: "It's just AJ, Rick. He's just so excited about this deal. Done. He'll be there tomorrow.
Rick: "Sweeettt. wanny is so going to love me now."

I miss the days when water covered 75% of the earth and Pat and Sam covered the rest....jdang307 said:Well that's what I meant, he wanted to get paid, knew we weren't going to pay it, then requested a trade, which we obliged, IIRC. I could be wrong though, but that's what I remember. I wanted to keep him, but understood the business, he was one of my favorite players if not my favorite other then Chambers.
