Johnny Football addressed the media this afternoon for the first time since December 29th of last year. Here are some snippets:
I think I’m with most people when I say I’ll believe in this “changed” Johnny when I see it, but if we’re being honest I was really only off the JFF train for like a week at the end of last season.

This move, however….very much still in play.

Here’s the link to the video of Bourn getting the old heave-ho.
God I love this man. Can’t you just picture him in the pisser after the inning, hearing the commotion mid-stream, stumbling over himself to zip up and get out there? “Ahhhh….gotta swing the bat………..what…what’s that……….ah sh…..fuck….what the fuck Bournie!”
This only a couple days after letting our top prospect know he’s been called up to the big squad with an adorable text:
If you’ve called for his firing at any point since he started here, you are absolutely 100% clinically insane.
