Fuk has $36 Mil left on his contract.
Pierre has $28M.
They're the same age, both born in 1977.
No jokes about Great White sharks comping on their collective penii:
Would you trade Fuk, straight up, for Pierre?<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
I assume you're just doing it for some talk, but it has no chance of happening in real life.

Yeah, I just wanted to get your feelings on it. The trading of one bad contract for another is actually done quite often.
I actually wouldn't do it, simply because of unbridled optimism...that is, Fuk could completely stun us, and turn it around. It's at least <i>possible</i>.
Whereas, with Pierre, you know exactly what you're getting, which isn't much.
To me, that blind hope is <i>worth</i> the extra $8 mil.

There's nothing better than to realize that the good things about youth don't end with youth itself. It's a matter of realizing that life can be renewed every day you get out of bed without baggage. It's tough to get there, but it's better than the dark thoughts. -Lance
