I hear he has a new nickname. GoHomez.
Gomez has no say in the decision at all. It is totally up to the club.Quote:

If you read the article you posted, you would see that Redden or Gomez would have the right to ACCEPT the buy out or be loaned to another team...
Now that is funny.

So Redden is picked up by St. Louis and GoHomez is in San Jose, and Wade will play in his 1000th game tonight.
