....8M Kirby? That's a lot of money for an overpaid guy with one year left on his deal.
Yeah, after talking with Kirby I'm going to veto. This is just a reflection on a new GM not knowing all the ways cash could help them. 13M for this guy is just absurd.

Poland is a solid RP, but you can get as good for considerably less.

guys, this is a little petty. Is the player worth 8M, probably not, more like 4-5M but kirby is not a "new" person to all of this. Kirby may see something in Poland and he wants him. I think the cloud over some past transgressions are making people look a littler harder than they should in this one, which I really hold no fault for those feelings.
But all in all, lets try and keep this civil and find a way to work this out without any name calling.
