Tony Twain's words again put George Wood on the cover page. Already, the media gave Wood the exaggerated epithet of "The World's Most Valuable Player." Even more of them gave him the moniker of "Mr. Two Trillion."
From the outsiders' perspective after the press conference, regardless of whether or not Twain's words were true, there was one thing that was certain; George Wood was Nottingham's, and he was not for sale.
Could anyone in the world afford to pay two trillion dollars? A single player was almost equivalent to a nation… Since no one could afford that price, what was he but a non-saleable commodity?
