Sure, Joe has a LOT to do with that, but the "I love this team" talk rings more empty these days than ever. Hardly anyone signs with a team because they want to win. It's always been about money, but I'd say that balance was like 80/20 in the past, and is closer to 99/1 now.
Either way, as long as we keep getting solid vets, cool.
Evidently, Irv Sr convinced him to sign here. His quotes are in post 208.
