It would be a fun exercise to go back and dredge up old posts from that time.Look my brother, I’m sorry I got you ramped up.
Now, re-read the post and see if it still triggers your sensitive feelings. And I don’t know why I should be too concerned with what words you think I should use. HOWEVER, if you are open to it, maybe I can DM you before my next post to run my words by you?
OR, maybe you know better than I what my intent was.
I read what you said as you lumping the FO in with the couple posters that were ok with how things played out. They don’t deserve that IMO because of what I said (you did say that too as a part of a “however”).
A few other posters (myself included) didn’t think JB was worth the probable max he was gonna need to turn his head from his mind already being made up on going to NY. On this team, JB would not do what he is doing for NY. I have yet to see anyone dispute that point.
Turns out he was much more vital to the team psyche than even a lot of the lamenters originally thought. If he is that guy, what the heck is the reason for all the “lockerroom” guys, the “culture” guys that we’ve paid and overpaid and who have been defended as such through the years? It’s the exclusive job of the FO to know that because we could not possibly know until something like this happens. They fed us a lie about those players and due to having no clue about it, many bought into the facade.
Again, sorry for getting you upset about what I wrote, peace.
