A Shot Short

I  probably would have waited until the season was over before I traded Rudy Gay. But when you look at where he went. I think that explains why the Grizzlies did what they did. He was  worth more now than he would be at the end of the season. Rudy was making a whopping $17 million annually. By trading him the team got four players and saved  $35 million over the next two years. Rudy wasn't this season and never has put up the kind of numbers that justified paying him that much money. He should be forever grateful to Michael Heisley. He hasn't even ever made the All-Star team. But he is making marquee money.

Rudy was a second tier player at best. He has lost at least five games this year alone. Games that he himself should have won. The game he won against Philadelphia last week, was too little too late.  The fans should have experienced that same type euphoria several times this year courtesy of him. I always thought Rudy was a good player, just unfortunately overrated. He was only worth about half of what he was making. So this is why the media tried to give him credit for every game the Grizzlies won. The people in Toronto don't really know. It would be hard to let a clutch performer leave. But Rudy Gay wasn't one. He was always a shot short of being great.

The Grizzlies have about 5,000 fair weather ticket buying fans. They only like the team when they're winning.

Rudy Gay's PPG has risen 6 points in three games. He may be a marquee player in Toronto. But he wasn't in Memphis.

The infection has become too strong for the medications.
If you have gone to your physician you have most likely been misdiagnosed, then prescribed several
different antibiotics or drugs to help you with your perceived 'other' health issues.
More than likely, the garlic inserted into the vagina will provide instant relief for any symptoms that are present.
