<p>
	Regardless of a lot of other things regardless of whether or not we hate or love baker this is probably a terrible idea from the get-go. Unless somebody and some front office is just stupid it should have been clear that Watson didn't want to come up here. By pursuing him knowing that they were 99% sure of being rejected as opened up a big can of stink for the team on many levels.

<p>
	Kind of like dumping here wife so you can pursue a relationship with Jennifer Aniston, knowing there's not a chance in hell she would go for it.

<p>
	While Hunt was never charged with a crime, we all saw the video tape and that is the major difference for me. I still don't know why he wasn't charged based on what I saw, because it sure didn't look like self defense to me.
</p>

<p>
	At the end of the day the law says he's innocent, but my lying eyes tell me something different.

	It's a freak circus show we don't need with the Browns. Whoever is responsible for the watson idea..

	should have their asses kicked just before being fired.
