Grab Your Wool Coats, Primoz Brezec Signs in Russia

"You will rue the day you got rid of Primoz Brezec!" is what somebody is saying to nobody in particular today. According to Pro Exposure and this website of which I understand nothing, Uncle Primoz has signed with Krasnie Kirilya Samara. This from the site:

Visoki Primorec se vrača iz ZDA, a ne v obubožano Union Olimpijo, ki ga je snubila s prazno malho, temveč v Rusijo. ''Podpisal sem enoletno pogodbo s klubom Krasnie Kirilya Samara,'' je sporočil ''Breza'', ki je v Evropi nazadnje igral pri rimski Lottomatici.

My thoughts exactly, comrade. This leaves the Sixers with a continent-sized hole somewhere in the front line or at least as the 7'0 bench bouncer. Congrats to Breezy for getting a contract somewhere else at the ripe old age of 31 (he should be at least 42) and shame on us for not coming up with the segment "Breezy and Speezy" when they were teammates. I guess we'll have to settle for a Darius Dongaila weekly talk show as a mix of Reba and Mind of Mencia.
