It Would Appear That Smash Mouth Might Actually Bring An End To The Bryce Harper Free Agency
So as we all know, Smash Mouth put this tweet out yesterday:
Low and behold, here’s the newest rumblings today:
Son of a bitch. Phillies fans have essentially been taken hostage by this Bryce Harper free agency. It’s been weeks and weeks and weeks at this point of just waiting around and praying that some real news actually breaks. At this point I don’t even care if Bryce Harper signs with the Phillies anymore. I just want him to make a goddamn decision so we can stop talking about it every single hour of every single day. But yeah, Phillies fans have been dealing with this shit for weeks with absolutely zero answers. And now all it takes is ONE (1) GODDAMN TWEET from Smash Mouth and all of a sudden the Giants are about to land Harper?
One tweet from Smash Mouth and out of no where, the Giants have a 10-year deal to discuss with Harper. John Middleton has been flying out to Vegas at all hours of the night. He’s been talking about stupid money. The Phillies have been investing so much time and energy into trying to get Bryce Harper to sign here. And all that work is about to get cucked by Smash Mouth sending a tweet. It’s fucked, man. It is so incredibly fucked.
Again–I honestly don’t care where Bryce Harper signs at this point. I just want this whole situation to be over with. But I’ll tell you this right now; if Bryce Harper ends up signing in San Francisco, I better never hear another Smash Mouth song get played at Citizens Bank Park for the rest of eternity. No “All Star”. No “Then The Morning Comes”. No “Walkin’ On The Sun”. Not even “Can’t Get Enough Of You Baby”. I know those songs all slap and I know it’s going to be damn near impossible to enjoy a Phils game without being able to jam out to some Smash Mouth. But it’s the principle here. If Bryce Harper signs with the Giants, then Smash Mouth is dead to Philadelphia forever.
