He spends every second being a doosh. I'm not concerned about it actually happening, but I would never watch any game where he was wearing a Braves uniform. I wouldn't stop rooting for the team but I couldn't stand to watch. Really seriously hate the guy. And I do think there's something to him being a big part of the reason they've under performed in the playoffs every year. Not just his performance, I get the impression he's just a jerk 100% of the time and that matters. I'd watch him play, and I've never heard or seen him be a jerk to teammates; not that I can remember at least. Well, except for Papelbon, but he's a jerk in his own right. I agree about Papelbon. There's something about that team that doesn't seem right. It's purely conjecture, but he's gotta be considered the leader or one or two of the leaders, and he has never proven he can lead the team in the playoffs. It's not all his fault, but if you're going to pay a guy $400M I'd want to know you can count on him to be a playoff leader. He's had plenty of chances already and has not proven to me he is an actual winner when it counts.

I honestly think everyone would come around to Harper.
At least I would... he has dialed back the dooshnozzleness, I am a forgiving person, and I am honestly going to root for anyone in a Braves uniform.
But its really a moot point.

Well what about this Rickey Henderson guy that Uckery mentioned a few weeks ago? I kinda liked the looks of his stats.

You don't pass on Harper. The dude is a generational talent and hasn't done anything douchebaggery in awhile. He spends every second being a doosh. I'm not concerned about it actually happening, but I would never watch any game where he was wearing a Braves uniform. I wouldn't stop rooting for the team but I couldn't stand to watch. Really seriously hate the guy. And I do think there's something to him being a big part of the reason they've under performed in the playoffs every year. Not just his performance, I get the impression he's just a jerk 100% of the time and that matters. If you don't like watching "jerks" play you should stop watching pro sports. As far as him being a dooche or jerk or whatever you want to call him, that's a really dumb reason to not want a GENERATIONAL TALENT on your team. Who's your favorite bball team? Would you have wanted Jordan? He was a world class jerk. Would you have taken the Brady/Belichick combo for the last 18 years? They are both jerks. I hate cry baby's but if the biggest cry baby on the planet, Lebron, decided he wanted to play for my favorite bball team Id become a big fan of a big cry baby.

I like you Uckery your a cool poster not a jerk at all but you do realize that what you basically said here is, "he's such a jerk that his team can't take it and sucks during the playoffs. For 162 games they can handle his jerkiness but come playoff time it's just too much."
You do realize how ridiculous this is, right? You also realize how ridiculous it is to say you would stop watching if we signed him, right? We got a lot of young talent right now. It's likely a few of them are "jerks" and we just don't know it yet.(gasp!)

Thanks for that advice, I really appreciate it, that's very kind of you. I've been watching sports for over 50 years, but I never stopped and looked at it from that angle. I'll give it some thought.

I'm certainly big enough and well centered enough to admit that I do. And I'm not one bit ashamed of it. I did list several reasons why I don't want him on our team, and those were just my opinions. It's quite possible they were all stupid and me not wanting him on the team is stupid. Pfffffttttt. It is what it is. Every time I see his face I want to take a baseball bat and hit him right in that smug dooshy face of his with it. Stupid? Ok. But I'm not going to continue to defend my position on this, I've said all I've had to say about it. Call me stupid or whatever for having this opinion. No problem.

You just need to meet Mr. Harper in person.
Once you looked into those steely eyes and saw that hair up close and personal, you would become mesmerized.... and think of the protection he would offer Freeman!
