Brady was never outspoken in Boston but whenever he gets to Tampa he won’t shut up and now Bill is endearing himself to the UNC frat boys after barely saying 5 words in all his years with the Patriots.

I watched the early game but missed the late one.
Looking forward to watching today!
 
At some point, Alonso and Bregman have to swallow their pride and come back to where they both had pretty good situations, right?
Bregman wants 6 years and Astros aren't budging from 5. Tigers are willing to do 6 for him.


The Alonso thing is weird. Mets offered him a 3 year contract and his agent is being greedy.
