I wasn't too excited about this to begin with, but I wanted someone who would bring in a bit of discontent - simply to undermine BoB.

This being said, the hot rumor in the area is that Janice McNair vetoed the move. Which... Is actually a significant storyline. This means Bill O'Brien DOES have someone in ownership who is going to question everything. The HC/GM found someone who will oppose him... and it's someone he can't trade.

Where the **** was Janice when Hopkins was traded!!!???

Probably like a lot of folks - unhappy, but willing to buy into it. Three games in, it's an unmitigated disaster - there really isn't a realistic ending that paints BoB as a winner on this one.

I think the Clowney trade last off-season gave Janice confidence - at the end of the season, BoB wasn't completely wrong in turning Clowney into Gaeron Conley and Jacob Martin. It was pure dumb luck, but there was an illusion of BoB as a moderately intelligent guy.

He's not, but that's how a con works.

Might be your last mistake. Earl Thomas shoots first... and doesn't miss.

I don’t know. I hear his brother shoots first.
