Amazon Prime Day Is Helping Me Get Ready For The Inevitable Manny Machado Trade
Sure, there may not be sports on TV right now as we hit our dead time of the sports calendar, but guess what? Amazon has us covered with Amazon Prime Day. Now, I like to think of Amazon Prime Day as my own personal day of free agency. I get to sit here, pick what I want from a massive list of options and have to beat the clock in order to get it. And you know what? It’s like we organized a sign-and-trade with Amazon because somehow they are teaming up with us and we get a cut of everything sold through our site.
So what is on the top of my list this year? Some things to help me with the impending trade of Manny Machado. You see, I’m an Orioles fan. It sucks but it’s awesome. I mean it mostly sucks, but winning the AL East a few years ago was awesome. The run in 2012 was awesome. But, for the majority of my life being an Orioles fan has absolutely sucked.
Now, Manny Machado – my second favorite Oriole ever (only behind Brady Anderson) is about to get traded. I hate this goddamn team right now. Sure, let’s throw all the money at Chris Davis but forget about our generational talent in Manny. So I need something to get over this and help continue to decorate my basement. What am I looking at to buy? The combo of this plaque and this Manny bobblehead.
