    We have a striker crisis on this team.  Jaqua was never the answer, and he’s out for a month.

    Why are we bringing in new MFs when we need strikers instead?

    I agree with the forward crisis!

    I found an article about what I believe is Jaqua’s injury and gave a summary in my podcast…or attempt at such…

    Look around.  We brought in two people and used our 1st round pick on a forward.  There are not many teams in the league that have a forward as good as montero and none that have two excellent forwards.  There are not many forwards looking for jobs in the winter as all the other leagues are still playing.
