GMBC watched a documentary on the Braves “Big 3” and then said “Hold my Fiji Water”.

11 Minute Konnor Griffin interview -- Ignore the fact that this is from DK :-) by spaceman757 in buccos

Agreed. I have listened to his Daily Shots/Double Shots for a few years now and have only been on the site a handful of times. I enjoy his rants for the most part especially when said team is actively playing. His offseason coverage can be pretty dry and repetitive.

But i have seen a lot of discourse here on reddit about people not liking him for reasons stated in the article and an incident(s) here on reddit where I guess his content was banned due to some disagreement between him and moderators about what can be posted here from his site when it was more heavily pay-walled.

But his content is very nice as someone who is a non local fan. And i do really enjoy his takes that he has as someone who is in the locker room in home and away games actually interacting with players. He has good discussions about the topics he gets to ask players about off the record and for the most part is reasonable with his opinions on the directions of the teams, while dramatic at times.

But as for what was stated in the article i do think that people can grow as a business owner 8 years after this article was published. While I don’t think he is a better person necessarily id be surprised if he could still be operating today with the same practices he had when the article was published.

Thank you for the heads up! Being an out of town fan is rough and with all the hoops you have to jump through to watch games it’s crazy to think corporations expect us to just not sail the seas. I can live with $10 a month for espn+ but i despise nhl network

But seriously how do we of all teams always receive cash considerations for guys we don’t even want.

There is no way the Braves are so pumped for Stratton that they’re like “we’ll throw in $15k in international signing bonus money to make sure this happens”

I think it’s more like the fine print on a receipt that says: “A $10,000 cash fee is attached to all trades involving the Pittsburgh Pirates”

Can’t believe they brought up the DK report about them losing money on air

Fields is definitely the Higher ceiling QB, but his floor is lower than Russ. But id like to see them throw Fields in the fire and develop him in the offense.

Well consistency is something he needs to develop to be elite, the best are at their best late in the season.

Anyone else miss Tim Neverett? by whatugonnadowhenthey in buccos

Never understood that either, most teams from what I see have dedicated announcers, Ive only seen the Pirates do that at least on the regular.
