Am I wrong in feeling 1% hope?

Let's start with #FJF

Now. Leaving aside, whether Timo is his previous best or not, it's very possible that he had other options, other offers.

Still he is joining a team which is known to have a depleted roster. Maybe it's just money, but maybe, maybe, maybe ... Maybe he has been promised and has hopes that a team will be built to support him. And maybe those other contracts will materialize now that he is onboard?

I am a fan. A STH. I have a right to be a tiny bit hopeful. And right to say FJF.
