Graves understands our frustration

[Redheart]

"I understand the frustrations of some of our fans," said Rod Graves, the team's vice president for football operations. "We can't twist arms to have people accept our deals, even when they are the best offers made to them. I would certainly have liked to have had several players in place and enjoy conversations about the new players under contract, but that hasn't happened."

This quote from the Republic article after learning of Colvin's signing with NE.

Reminds me of the time I was in Singapore after doing a little haggiling with a vendor on some fresh-water pearls; we had reached a price and I said "let me think about it" and started to walk away.

She said, "Wait! What kind of price make you not think?!"

Really, fresh-water pearls were involved. Beyond that I will admit to nothing.
