No Hodge on Chicago Vegas roster?

Millhouse
"yeah you are tripping balls. Put Hodge on that 92 team with 4 other players averaging over 16 ppg and Hodge would get 9 ast with his eyes closed."

yeah, Hodge would have done that at a ripe old age of 9 years old.

p.s. - didn't start this thread at the top, but just noticed the first couple of posts. VERY poor taste by a couple of you guys. Its a shame that things ended badly here with Hodge, but there's no reason to have that kind of reaction. Why get so cut up about a player who was barely here one full season, that you feel you need to call him a scumbag or suggest he's been shot again?

XY, loved watching Butch when he first arrived here. He had a great season in '91 and seemed like a genuinely nice guy. Not sure why, but he seemed to fall away after only a couple of seasons and was moved on? Anything to do with Don Monson's arrival in Adelaide?

Incidentally, my dad and his wife bought Butch's house off him after he got cut by the Sixers - got a good deal apparently!

Always hard to compare players fairly from different eras, but if we want to talk about best Sixers imports, lets not forget Rob Rose, Darnell Mee and Kevin Brooks! Those guys were none too shabby. How about Davis for the first five or six years he was in the league? The guy was a dominant player in his day. Al Green too for his first couple of years.

Hodge was just too much of a rental to ever feel like he was truly a Sixer in my book. Perhaps it could have been different, but he and Mal got their wires crossed and thats all history now. Hopefully Gilchrist will make us forget all about Hodge by mid season! ;-)

How good a player was he? "One of very few I'd pay to go and see. But he didn't play within team rules.
I told him if you want to make stand over missing pay and not train or play, you can do that. But let us know,rather than just not turning up or turning up late and leaving us not knowing if your coming or not"
Brett said.

( $25 - $30 thousand that'd be USD a month I'd guess)

I never formed an opinion for either side in this saga due to all the he said she said crap that was going on, UNTIL Brett Maher said his piece on it. As said above, Brett has never slagged off at a team mate in that way.

Yeah, I went through the player lists yesterday and couldn't find him. Maybe give his agent a call - he may have just not showed up for a perfectly good reason...

Hmm.
