    I think we could use him off the bench to give tmac some rest plus his only 29 years old. I think more than anything rocket need one more decent player that can create his own shot or a shot for someone else.

    he hasnt stuck with any team, a guy with good potential gone to waste

    I think we should sign Mercer, then trade him to Kroger's for a Freschetta® brand frozen pizza. The kind with the tomato sauce in the crust would be good, but something like a regular spinach/mushroom/garlic pizza would be acceptable if we couldn't get the stuffed crust kind.

    TRADE ACCEPTED.

    I'm not sure the salaries work out, we might have to take back a couple of stockboys.

    Unfortunately, Mercer would be the same player the next day. This pizza is horrible the day after. :( :D

    I would rather have Aaron McKie who was just waved by the Sixers. He is a very good defender and a JVG type as well.

    My thoughts exactly...where has this guy been the past 3 years? And he's only 29?? How could this be? He's gotta be at least 50 yrs old now...come on.

    We already have Moochie, Table Spoon, Vin and some guy named Ryan Bowen. I don't think we have a spot for :D Ron "Gatorade Man" Mercer.
