That site is usually very solid about transactions. If this one is true they either really like Jeremy or something is going on with Barry.
Yesterday was 02/10/08, Spurs signed Richardson for the first time on 01/10/08.
Maybe they have mixed January with February.
To add conjecture on top of conjecture...if they signed Richardson and traded Barry, they probably moved Barry for a big.
That's what I was thinking, and it could very well be the case though it's kind of a funky error to make.Quote:

That's really interesting. ProExposure is a rock solid site. Either someone read wrong and confused the month or the Spurs actually did sign him. If they signed him that would mean there is a trade in the works ... or Barry's recovery isn't coming along fast enough.
I guess we'll find out for sure when the Spurs game starts. I don't see it anywhere else on the internet, though.
So?
I'd like to think it signals a trade but I'm guessing it's a freak error instead. Or as timvp mentioned that Barry's recovery isn't coming along fast enough.
They didn't mention anything during the broadcast, so I'm assuming it's an error.
Or, just maybe, since they've blown well over the Tax with Damon, they're willing to pay a double minimum salary to keep JR, or keep him away from someone else.
It's Jeremy Richardson's birthday, so maybe his buddies thought this would be a good joke.
proexposure hasn't taken it down. We'll know soon enough as the Toros play the Mad Ants on Thursday. Maybe they are just holding off the announcement so Richardson can participate in the D-League ASG -- nah, that wouldn't make sense if he's an injury fill-in for Barry.
This is very interesting. Maybe Finley is a gonner. LOL
I live within a couple hours of Ft. Wayne and gave some consideration to driving in for the Austin game--I left a message with the Mad Ant PR rep yesterday about another issue, but I'll ask about Richardson as well. I was shocked to see on the Mad Ant website that the numbers of all their execs are listed. Funny, huh?
That is interesting, especially the email addresses for the coaching staff. The people on the business side of the Toros are easy to get a hold of and helpful.
Fort Wayne has really enviable attendance numbers this season. They play in an enormous arena, but it seems like it could be a pretty nice atmosphere when the crowd is good.
The superior quality of SpursTalk.
I post on another board. Its mostly Laker Krishnas ( cultists who worship Kobes poop and believe anything pro-Laker and refuse to believe anything neg Laker). Anywho that board has a super annoying poster who claims to be a die hard Spurs rooter. I posted this a.m. that Richardson was resigned. I did it under an Artest for ____Spurs thread as I myself would take Artest for Splitter and Manhinmi. Risky i know but i want a repeat badly. Anywho i posted that the Kings might take a peek at Richardson as he may indeed get some play small or large or even if none, he is on the Spurs roster as potential filler for a theoretic trade.
*Spurs diehard* poster entitled "lurker" s response:
How are the Spurs going to play someone that isn't even on their roster?
Do we need to revisit the earlier posts about THINKING before you post? (About the 3rd time he's tried using this THINKING before i post schpeel)
I informed him that the Spurs re signed Richardson. lurker continues:
So where is the link to this signing?
Not on the local paper site
Not on Spursreport.com
Not on NBA.com
Not on any of the major media sites (ESPN, SI, Sportsline)
Maybe you could actually post some proof. And what makes you think they would resign someone and immediately play him?
Until then I will have to believe that you are posting without any thought...SNAFU in other words.
Well there is no confirmation, so we can't really assume it's happened. It's just that the site I saw it on is usually quite reliable.

^ Chump,
huh? Kori tim and others said its a slam he is re signed.
you mean Yahoo screws up occasionally?
Or you mean he is definitely re signed as a Spur, just that whether or not he plays Wed night we shall have to see?
Yes, but no one has called me back. So maybe it's simply that they want to appear accessible, but in reality they have alternate numbers, etc...Quote:

I may have caused some confusion by not starting a new thread.
Richardson was signed to a 10-day contract on Jan 10.
Richardson was signed to another 10-day contract on Jan 20.
His contract was not extended to the end of the season, so he returned to the D-League.
Monday, I noticed that proexposure.com stated that the Spurs signed Richardson on Sunday. The only way that could be true is if they signed him for the rest of the season.
It has not been confirmed by any other source and until it is, it really can't be discussed as being true.
