I bring this up because I see threads like...Player A is available and we should bring him in, he would fill a position for us or be a great back up....Well, maybe we contacted his agent and they said "thanks, but no thanks!!"  Maybe our staff knows a bit more about our needs and some of the guys that we see as an upgrade are not in the professional eyes of our staff?

WHODEY!!

Sadly, you are very correct. The stigma of Mike Brown is still with us. Taylor and his band of pals seem to have created a new level of stench and that hasn't helped either.
