Traditionally, Baseball pitchers that toss a No-Hitter buy their catcher a gold watch or some other gift to commemorate the deed. Sports team owners pay for all of the championship rings after the team wins the championship. QBs usually treat their O-Lines to special dinners as a thank you and to foster their best efforts to protect him.
I'm not shocked that players that make millions of dollars a season are extravagant with each other. Additionally, it is a long used coaching practice to sit a player in order to get more from him when he is reinserted. While Gary has improved sense he was drafted, after nearly two seasons he is still not the player that GB had hoped that they could develop. After the season concludes, if I wee GB's GM, I'd package and trade Gary for more/better draft choices.

PS: Thank goodness you aren't GM... stupidity to trade good young players on cheap rookie contract, unless you're getting a steal of a deal... and don't freaking realize how good Gary might become if he keeps improving...

GB should not continue to hold on to a player out of pride, but cash him in ASAP before his value decreases any further. Gutekunst may be able to put a deal together where GB picks up a 3rd or possibly a 2nd round pick in return for Gary and some other sweetener.

Extravagant gifts/presents at the pay level of some sports players/coaches is nothing new.

We were given one version of events... now we're given a second version of events... they both can't both be correct.

I was just staying clear of making a judgement of which is the correct version, because I don't know for a fact...

I assume your version is correct... but it's disheartening that the story wasn't real (so I don't wanna completely let go of it just yet)... At least assuming the the story of Preston buying the entire defense scooters story was real...

Now if they're both fake, then F the pranksters and the media for the false good heart warming stories...

Maybe I heard wrong? But zadarius said they're close but not that close and Preston laughed and agreed. Maybe zadarius was saying it was a joke cuz he didn't get it approved by his wife and it was real? I dunno lol.

You forgot to not drive into Oak Trees, don't drink bleach, and wear a coat outside when it's cold.
