They were probably okay with it when they assumed he was going to just be one of the guys trying to make the cut. When you're a seventh rounder and suddenly do something like this, it might be a bit different. Personally, I wouldn't have done what he did. I think there is probably enough money on the back end with…

If you really don't want to keep it, maybe you can donate that glove to kids in the Dominican Republic. Although, that might make a young middle infielder that would have been otherwise gloveless become soft and you could potentially shatter some major league dreams.

As much as I agree with your suggested answer, if you substitute A's with Dodgers, you can get a much different outcome. It does happen way too much on the east coast though.

Hey good comment! Go fuck yourself and die of cancer.

I wouldn't say he should cut ties to his friends (you wouldn't be much of a friend), but you also have to be self aware enough to not tweet pictures / provide the public with media content that could be considered questionable.

Don't lie. You miss him just a little bit.

I hope he's yelling at a player on the bench about something a guy on the court did. Then, the transformation will be complete.

Don't worry, the Harrisons made plenty when they signed with Kentucky.

This kid was lost well before he got to UNC. I'm torn because he probably shouldn't be in college, but it isn't right to stop educating him either because he obviously needs it.

Well, yes, if Carmelo Anthony or Rudy Gay somehow got on HBO.

Did you really just set up a 16 seed upset of a #1 in the Lifestyle regional?

It has to be, right? First thing I thought.

I think the blonde guy in green was trying to get into it with his teammate. The video on ESPN is blurry, but it looked like he swung on #25's teammate prior to when the gif starts.

The image of Flutie in an incubator made me laugh.

Definitely with you on those. I hate how some gamers treat their female counterparts. Too much harassment. Female gamers bring a different personality dynamic to the game, so why run them off?

Yeah, but considering all of that, he's throwing 85 mph. If he could improve his mechanics that would be worth at least 5 mph.

That's a fair comparison. It was a big deal to break the color barrier, although I'm sure the constant talk of it made life harder on Jackie because you're faced with all of these additional pressures that wouldn't exist if it was generally accepted.

The NCAA is minor league compared to the shadiness of the IOC and FIFA.

This whole issue has me torn. I'm happy that Sam came out. It's great that the NFLPA has said they would welcome him with open arms. But, that should be the end of it. The media fawning over the story and going on about player reactions, etc does make it a distraction.

I did the same thing because I assumed the goalie was at fault.
