Revere's Ride: Dump Moreno

In the nine days since Revolution President Brian Bilello sent out a cryptic tweet claiming the Revs "have signed a #9," there's been confirmation the player was Colombian journeyman Jose "Pepe" Moreno, reports that Moreno has changed his mind and would instead prefer to remain in Colombia, and reminders that Moreno has signed all the necessary paperwork to become property of the Revolution.

All of which is to say New England Soccer Today's Brian O'Connell is spot-on with his call for the Revs to say thanks, but no thanks to Moreno:
At this juncture, the best course of action is to simply pull the plug on Pepe. It’s fairly obvious he’d rather stay in Colombia. So let him. Forget the potential public fallout for letting him walk. Better to leave him be than to force him into a situation he may never be ready for.
