00:00I found that comment interesting. And look, I haven't talked to Mike today, but I can tell you by his
00:04response, I think Felger felt the same way.
00:07That Christian Gonzalez is, you know, Bedard doesn't seem to think that the negotiations have really been all that earnest.
00:14Everybody's kind of taking the summer off. They'll revisit when training camp starts, according to Bedard, or check in when
00:22training camp starts.
00:23So the point is that it doesn't sound like they are close to a deal for Christian Gonzalez.
00:30Now, I was hoping that they'd get this thing done. He'd be ready for the start of camp.
00:36And I know there is a school of thought out there that sign him, don't sign him, but make a
00:40decision and don't start playing this game where there's a holdout and something hanging over the team during training camp
00:47or what have you and resolve it one way or the other.
00:49I would prefer that they sign the player. You know, you go through the draft process, you hit on a
00:55guy who ends up being a good player for you, had a good season last year.
01:01Vrabel was raving about him at the end of the year. And I also think that the Mike Vrabel era,
01:07if they're going to build it on this whole thing of family and player development and, you know, rewarding the
01:13people on the inside, how do you not give Gonzalez a contract?
01:19Vrabel was raving about him at the end of the year.
01:19And he was raving about him at the end of the year. And he was raving about him at the
01:19end of the year.
