Maybe. Possibly...


I agree with everything you wrote. But I have to admit that it doesn't sit well with me that Bud opting in on his player option this offseason. I understand why he did so (he wouldn't make that on the FA market). But still, it bugs me that he opted in when (per reports) he didn't want to play here. Isn't that a "dick move" on his part? I guess it's all business. Whatever. Now that's off my chest and I'm over it. Long live the Rudez era!


I would love too see you turn down millions of dollars in order to not make a dick move. Personally, I would punch an old lady right in the face for the amount of money that Bud would of have to of given up

I believe you would, and probably have punched an old lady in the face.
