Warrior fans woke up this morning with a Christmas present . . . their beloved team got promoted. The fans are excited, the beer vendors are excited, the coaches and players were excited . . . right up until they saw the league they moved into.
Team management put it like this "Well, its going to be a lot like when Susie McCutcheon was a little girl. She was very loud about only wanting 2 things for Christmas. She wanted a bike, and she wanted her two front teeth. By the grace of God (and a small investment from her parents) she got both of her presents that year; a shiny new pink bike and both of her front teeth started to come in. Well, come a month later, she crashed that bike while sticking her tongue out at Billy Masterson. When she fell, those new front teeth bit off half her tongue . . . and she hasn't been able to speak in the 50 years since! You just really have to be careful what you wish for."
The team made 2 immediate moves in acquiring Adler and Saletas to stand in the middle of the lane on defense. Neither is anywhere close to Kelly Hawks, but hopefully they don't suck too bad.
