There is truth to this. Ozzie Alonso never made more than $1.4M. Diego Chara makes $600K.
I think Bradley will get more than $1.4M, just because of the track record of accomplishment here.

[QUOTE=Ultra & Proud;1913034]MLS Cup ratings have nothing to do with our market. Not our problem that people in LA, Atlanta, and other places without a dog in the final won't watch. Frankly, I could care less. Get us the best guy.[/QUOTE
I was referring to TSN Ratings, not the US market.
Yes. Unlikely because it needs perfect circumstances. I do think they have something up their sleeves though.
PS I am enamoured of it because it’s my idea! I particularly like Bradley saying: “I’ll take a modest contract at the end of my career”. Fantastic leadership.
Yeah he has to be back and for the rest of his career. Earlier this season I figured it was time to move in a different direction but Bradley is the heart of the team and I think he is intelligent enough to change his game to go with age. Just give him 4 years at a modest salary, make it a straight decade and then toss a statue outside gate 1.
A DP midfielder is definitely worth it. I would kill to have someone like Kevin Strootman.
All players signed are subject to league approval. So there can't be any rogue operators. It all depends on what the other owner/operators want to allow.
Apparently, Osorio was battling with an Iron deficiency all season, which led to some weakness.

Is there any website that accuraretly lists the contract status of our players (years left on contract)?
Dont we find out today about options being picked up?
FYI, Bradley announcement is in two weeks
Under the radar here but you would hope next year some of Dunn, Okello, or Perruzza start competing more vigorously for a first team minutes.
If nothing else Perruzza should be loaned out. He’s still only 18 and USL-2 looks too easy for him.
I didn't see it posted here but there was a story in the Star that mentioned we're looking at a loan for Fraser if Bradley returns.
I still think I'd rather start reducing Bradley's load and getting Fraser more involved, but if Vanney doesn't want to do that then I guess it is better that Fraser is loaned out and gets to play. But if we go that route it needs to be somewhere where he really will play a lot.
I still think Morrow is in play. I don’t think you expose a guy of that stature and expect everything to be hunky dory in the locker room next year.
Shaff should be loaned out to the cpl like telfer was. Perruzza is probably better than ayo so give him a shot next year.
The problem is that Bradley refuses to rest and Vanney can’t seem to make any headway in that battle or just chooses to ignore it.
While we’re better with him in the lineup, there have been a few games where he was clearly gassed but remained on the field to our detriment. I think it’s something we have to manage better for Bradley, Fraser, and TFC in general.
Vets like Morrow know how it works. He knows he is nearing the end of his pro football days and is currently making decent money (for an MLS domestic). Every expansion draft there are a bunch of these kind of players exposed because teams know they're very unlikely to be selected. Happens every time. I don't think too much of being exposed but I wouldn't be surprised if management see Laryea & Auro as better starting options at FB so you never know. But again I think the new CBA will have a lot of say as to who stays and who goes.
I thought the deadline for contract decisions was 1 pm today. Has anyone heard anything yet?
Hittin refresh like nobody's business. Nothing yet...
