They say Daniel Brière's wife didn't want him to sign with Montreal.
Is it any wonder?
If you're the one who has to take care of children and go to the supermarket and maintain a home on an even keel while your spouse concentrates on his job for eight months, would you want to move to a city where they trash store windows and burn police cars AFTER A WIN??????
It calls to mind what's carved on W.C. Fields' tombstone:
"On the whole, I'd rather be in Philadelphia."
Or Phoenix or San Jose or Dallas or Anaheim or Carolina ...
It doesn't have to be sunny. Just civilized.Â
Sign with Montreal?
What, the offer is better than Baghdad's?
