    And you know this how?
    Or is it your guess?

    And I ask that because that's the first time I've heard his name for this job, and I've done a lot of reading on it.

    Just say its speculation. Despite what went down in Philly, many people in baseball like Ed Wade. I doesn't want to go to Houston but sometimes you have to go where the job is. P-burgh is Pennsylvania. It's not Philly, but the adjustment wouldn't be as great.

    Oh, ok, so it's not like any reporters have said the Pirates have any interest in him.
    Just checking, because all I've read so far is Duquette and Jocketty.

    I remember that episode.... when it was Lou Pineilla in Tampa Bay.

    Jocketty and LaRussa to the Pirates?

    Gotta be kidding me, Mark.

    I trust you, but I'm wondering who floated that garbage to you.

    No way Bobby Nutting opens the wallet that much.

    It was all over Busch this week.
    I don't see it happening, either, but that was the rumor.

    Almost clever.

    Wasn't meant to be clever. Just remember where you heard the Ed Wade rumor.

    No, tell me you didn't say I vote no because that's exactly what I said about you on the other thread.

    And as it turns out, I was right.

    I vote no because that's exactly what I said about you on the other thread.
    As you can see, as with the post on the other thread, it made little sense.
    Now in an effort to remain on topic, Wade might win the salary sweepstakes because he would be cheaper.

    No, it did make sense on the other thread, and I was right.
