Goddamn it’s been a strange year to be a Celtics fan.

In both of those cases, though, VAR could have been seen to hinder the team that eventually won, so there wasn’t as much hubbub raised over the decision, beyond the immediate reactions.

This is amazing.

Yeah, $240 million vs. $300 million is a big difference though. And while Boras isn’t to be believed, I’d bet that it’s really at least slightly less than $240 million.

For sure exaggerated from Boras for obvious reasons, but didn’t the Nats also acknowledge that the present-day value was not even close to $300mil?

Get the guy off the Angels (who gives a shit about the Angels? Not even people in LA!) and preferably to an East Coast team. I agree that he’s not particularly marketable but if he signs with a team like the Yankees, they will figure it out.

they’ll be getting a bargain up front. Harper’s AAV of $25.4 million doesn’t crack the current top 10, and it’s just about what Philadelphia agreed to pay Ryan Howard nine years ago.

The second part of this comment is exactly why you should absolutely believe why they’ve been so cordial...

1.008 OPS in 2017 as well as that 2015 season but...that Matt Carpenter comp is still surprisingly pretty good.

Eh, did they really though? If he had gone back to them and said “lol alright fine I’ll take it”...you think they wouldn’t have said “ok”?

I love this take, especially the PED part.

Harper this week and made a big push to sign him, but it seems that Philly’s offer.

This is particularly funny because James Jones had a better NBA career than Josh Jackson will likely have, and is pretty clearly the preferred meet n’ greet (in this lowly boi’s opinion).

I tend to agree, but I wanted to get an honest response out of him. As a straight white male, I am honestly sick of playing as generic white dudes in games. Most of them are boilerplate meathead anyways.

Lmao, the “idea”...

When both of those games came out with black protaganists for their second entries, I’ll admit, i was a little disappointed! I prefer playing as white men.

Lmao dude, they do not care. They don’t give a shit about decorum or integrity; it is all a ruse. This idea that these are normal human beings who all have a sound conscience and moral system needs to stop. 

Lmao this is such a dumb take. That must make Bill Walton or Gary Payton top 10 Celtics players.
