They make what they make on their ELC then top it up with performance bonuses that we should be thrilled with paying as it means they are meeting or exceeding expectations.

Why would the baldo brothers risk antagonizing their prized assets?
They may feel they were screwed over when they were used to get Tryamkin a bigger contract in Russia and didn’t resign in Vancouver, now they’re holding a grudge against the agent, Todd Diamond, and Willander is caught in the middle.

If our Management team operates on a platform of holding grudges and allowing it to effect their current negotiations due to historic issues we may as well just quit now.

Once a "business deal" is complete you file it away, clean the slate and move on to the next one.

Let's hope Pickers suggestion is not the case.

Wasn’t Tryamkin’s failed negotiation with the previous regime?

Edit: With the suspected level of Aquameddling that goes on, I suppose it is worth remembering that the ownership component of the regime remains a fixture.

Just do your job... begrudgingly.

Don't be a grinch and turn a Diamond into a lump of Coal. Harbour no resentment.

Maybe I didn’t remember it was different management in charge, and maybe I felt screwed over by Todd Diamond because I really wanted Tryamkin back, and maybe I’m the one hoping management is bitter and petty and willing to screw over their first round draft pick to extract a bit of revenge on one specific agent just to make the one fan that wanted Tryamkin back, ME, to feel better! Well, if that’s the case, it’s all good.

Cool.

Maybe I'm amazed at the way Tryamkin jaded me

It's a chore, mang. But I'm a team player and always usually sometimes show up to put in the full effort for this GDHTMB.

As a core post driver (I mean, who isn't core? There's only like 10 people here. Even the mods have all fucked off.), I take accountability and responsibility to bring my witty best even if I feel like scootering by on my talents alone.

I'm PPG. I hit the century mark 100% of the time. Never falter, never stumble. Always reliable... even during long absences.

Fuck yeah.

Glad you feel better, Picker. Tryamkin to Shine on, you crazy Diamond.

I would have written scootering by but that may be nitpicking.

I guide a guy who lives in Hollywood…. He makes restaurant reservations under a false name because he loves the reaction when they call his name out…

Troy Malibu is what he uses… he has white/blond hair and he said people stare at him trying to figure out who he is….
