Matt James Begins Holdout

[Oles]

That would make sense, but bear in mind that 1) he told me he WOULD be listening to me on decisions, and 2) he already had a player NOT on his team involved in decision-making.  So yeah, I can be mad at him.  And, more importantly, I can make fun of him for horrible trades.

Listening to you doesn't mean using everything you say as gospel and the word of the world. He can listen to you, and still decide to keep going with whatever he was going to do.
