Fran Vazquez isn't real, he's just a mythological figure that Otis and Twardz conjured up so that the fans wouldn't find out that they hadn't done any pre-draft homework and had no idea what to do with the pick...

i think the last we heard was he's willing to come over here and play if his contract can be bought out. But that's unlikely due to it's cost. but who knows, he's not doing anything for that team so maybe they can come to an agreement, lol.

Basically, nothing happened.

Except the Magic getting shafted...

I also remember he has the same agent as Darkhole. Any opinions if that makes him more or less of a lock for a trade??? THIEF? You always seem to have some psudeo-inside info on things...

The Magic used their 11th pick in the 2005 draft to select Vazquez, who decided to remain in Spain and play overseas. While the Magic were upset with his flip-flop, Smith said the franchise would welcome Vazquez. They

I heard something similar, expect that he sent his application - which they accepted - and came to Circus HQ took pictures with other performers. He expressed great public interest in joining the 3 ring Barnum & Baileys circus - the best circus in the world.

But just before he was to show up for practice, he signed a contract with a rival circus instead ...
