Briere asked for the 5/25M the previous summer and they only offered a 1/5M deal. Briere signed the 1 year deal then had 95 points that year and Buffalo, on the eve of free agency offers the 5/25M deal. Talk about a slap in the face. If I were Briere, I wouldn't have signed either.
I don't even if he ever outright said he would or wouldn't. ( He may have and I just missed it). However, he recently got divorced and his ex and 3 kids still live in Philly, so there's family reasons why he wouldn't want to leave the area. I'd be surprised, knowing this, if Homer would even ask him to waive.
Danny got divorced? That's too bad. Didn't know that.

Well put. That whole ordeal falls on management not on Briere.
