Hello again Mr. Rising,

We are listening. After conversations with your agent, we recognize and will accept the conditions wherein you would be in a starting role with the Howlers. Please recognize that, in order for this particular request to be possible, conditions will have to be set within our organization, and this process takes time.

There's always the potential for more than this, of course. But we would need you to visit our offices to further discuss any requests.

It's also true that the Thrust could counter-offer this with an extended contract or added bonuses. In fact, they most certainly will. That's the nature of business. And *yes*, they picked you in the Draft.

But it's not about who does it first, but *who does it best.*

They have proven that their attention is tied back to Mr. Tevela, and last night they poured salt on an open wound by drafting Mr. Na. If they want you in San Jose, why would their ultimate draft priority be to bring someone in to compete for your role at Shooting Guard?

We can only make this offer once, and that time is now. You can commit to settling in San Jose, or join the team that actually has been to the Finals in the last five years.

This is your time.

Best regards, James Gallopavos Montana Howlers Gen'l Mgmt.
