if i'm not mistaken, mclane made an executive decision and signed bagwell to his last contract.

i think an awful lot of responsibility comes on mclane. i'm not saying that purpura wasn't a good gm - anybody that lets ensberg get away for basically free isn't that good. my mind is telling me, however, that purpura deserved the opportunity to rebuild the organization.
