And Rory Cumberland's going to the Falcons--amazing! I've never heard of a deal like that. Not for a recruit. Go, Oliver!
I mean, that's totally too snitch for snidgets!

Seems as if they don't pay quite as massive a salary nowadays, either, but maybe it's just relative. My brother Charlie had a few teams talking to him when he left school, and I remember him saying how things changed 'cause of inflation or devaluation or whatchacallit that happened when we went to a closed system.
Or maybe it's because they don't have to worry someone will go to a foreign team anymore. And none of them are paying to recruit foreign players, either.

I think it's sort of good that people don't move so far away from their families now. I mean, I guess Charlie's about as far from home as you can get now, and it seems pretty far, but I wouldn't want him to live in China or Romania or Norway or someplace like that. Like dragon handlers used to do. We'd never see him then.
