He was so up and down this passed season. You didn’t know if you were getting Thatcher Hurd or Hatcher Turd. There was no in-between.

Or he's very satisfied with his new payout and is required to do so under the terms of his new agreement.

Can't blame him as he wants to check out all $$$$ options vs pro offer. Wouldn't happen if he didn't enter the portal.

I can blame him for not throwing strikes. That's why he's in this situation in the 1st place.
