    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    You have just as much right as a consumer to feel angry and betrayed as the Red Sox have to run their team like venture capitalists. It is what it is, but your emotions are still valid.

    Shohei Ohtani’s attorneys accuse interpreter of ‘massive theft’ tied to alleged gambling

    He wouldn't. Which is why it's in his best interest to not say anything. As an interested observer who thrives on chaos, I hope he says a lot.

    The Next Pats QB: Daniels or Maye?

    I think he’s lamenting that McCarthy WILL be there at #3, and now his armchair decision is more difficult because he peeked at the tape and found a new binky. And that’s bad for armchair drafting, because McCarthy isn’t a good “value” at #3.

    Thoughts/Impressions on “The Dynasty” Apple TV Series

    If the goal was to make Kraft look good, then the series was an abject failure. I was indifferent to Kraft before the series, and now I see him as a self-important old man desperately trying to write his own epitaph. If the goal was to make Belichick look bad, it didn't move the needle for me...

    I was not expecting so much Rupert Murdoch and Vladimir Putin in my Patriots docuseries.

    Offseason rumors

    I'd think Boras would still be able to negotiate an opt-out after year 1 if the total guarantee gets that low. If he can't, then maybe he's mortal after all.

    Offseason rumors

    I don't fault the Red Sox front office for this. They can't talk trade without letting teams know that Jansen is available, and they can't stop those other teams from leaking that Jansen is on the trade block. It's just the nature of the beast.

    Offseason rumors

    It could be either, but part of Boras' job is to read the market and manage his clients' expectations. If they're not being offered what they expected, that's still a knock on Boras. Boras is right way more than he's wrong, but it's fair to question whether his approach costs certain players money.

    Offseason rumors

    It doesn't have to be an expanded trade they just flip a pitching prospect who probably won't be ready this year, like Snelling, Mazur, Lesko, or Thorpe.

    Official Patriots 2024 Draft Pick Watch Thread (#3)

    Yeah, I do remember that... Rodgers has always had an attitude. Of course, that was also in an era where running backs commanded a premium, and three of the top five picks were used on that position. Today, a QB with Aaron Rodgers' raw talent isn't sliding that far.

    Offseason rumors

    I was this close to chiding you for suggesting Jonathan Schoop. This guy makes Schoop look like Bregman. When Breslow said he wanted a right-handed bat, I thought he meant a guy who can actually swing one.

    Official Patriots 2024 Draft Pick Watch Thread (#3)

    Did you mean someone else here? Rodgers was the second QB off the board at pick #24 and was considered a potential #1 pick in the draft.
