Toronto
exercises the team option on
Jamario
Moon for 2008-09. Well, actually, no they don't. On a point
of technicality, Moon doesn't have a team option, but an unguaranteed
contract for that year whose guarantee date just so happens to be the
same date as that on which all team options have to be exercised or
declined. Therefore, in practicality, there is absolutely no difference
between having the unguaranteed year and having a team option. So why
didn't Toronto just follow convention and have a team option? It's because
they hate me, that's why. And I hate them too. Making me write all this
shit. How dare they.
