I like the move, I'm just surprised they were able to part with a player the coaches loved so much. Good job by the front office in making a business decision.

I think we could have (and wanted to) keep Springs around if he would have restructrured like everyone else over 30 on our roster. He refused to take any kind of pay cut. I seriously doubt he finds $6M per year anywhere else.
