Chris Sale is the Kyrie Irving of the Red Sox

Tomase - Sale should opt out and sign for a discount deal

HEADLINES with The OBVIOUS ONE
The Red Sox are playing .300 baseball since the All-Star break. They are dead last in the division and 10th in the AL.
Reinforcements will not be coming from the $145 million skeleton, Chris Sale. Sale fell off his Huffy and broke his wrist. Reports are he fell into a pile of pillows, but they were tempurpedic and a little stiff.
Speaking of stiff. Jarren Duran sucks and I haven't been hard since... never mind
The Bruins inked deals to bring back their Captain Patrice Bergeon and David Krejci. Krecji 36 and Bergeron 37 both signed 1 year deal with fake incentives.
The Bruins have said they look forward to the $4.5 million in dead cap money next season.
Kevin Durant flew to London to demand action from Nets owner Joe Tsai. Durant demanded either GM Sean Marks and Coach Steve Nash be fired or he was out of Brooklyn.
Motivation for the demand was unknown until we found out his little gremlin buddy Kyrie had turned his fucked up 3rd eye onto Nets management.
Kyrie became displeased with the Nets for giving him everything he asked for just not in the manner in which his Youtube gods would have liked.
In Patriots news, Surprisingly SkinnyRay aka Matt Patricia does not have a full grasp of the Patriots new offense. The biggest problems seem to be with the offensive line and final execution of plays.
Patricia holds the titles of Offensive Line coach and Offensive Play caller. Go figure.
This has been HEADLINES with the OBVIOUS ONE
The Bruins prove Time Travel is real
Bergeron signs for 1 year $2.5 million base and $2.5 mill incentive. (play 10 games)
Krejci signs for 1 year $1 mill base. $2 mill incentive (play 10 games)
Pavel Zacha - 1 year $3.5 million
Salary Cap - Cap friendly: -2.24 million
- McAvoy and Marchand start out LTIR. Room to maneuver. $2.24 will work itself out.
- Players to move or buy out:
Folignio- $3.8, Craig Smith $3.1, Forbort $3, Reilly $3, Nosek $1.7
Potential lines with a 2nd round exit ceiling

QUICK BREAK
Patriots offensive struggles
Skinny Ray can't get these guys right.
A run down of reports from boots on the ground:
Jakobi Myers said they are dealing with Egos
David Andrew fights Baremore
Will they stick with this new blocking scheme?
- Wait until 1st pre season game?
- Deal with bad offense until you get it back
- How is it affecting Mac Jones?
- Is this the best course for him?
Preseason game #1 - Thursday night vs Giants
- No Mac Jones. Limited Starters
AFTER NOON DELIGHT
KD Demands
Durant demands GM marks and coach Kerr fired.
- Kyrie hates Sean Marks and Hates Steve Kerr
- Kyrie would run his own practices
- Durant is a baby back bitch. Can't and won't lead
