He's like a Redskin in Nats clothing, doesn't run out plays at first, doesn't hit the cut off man, makes outs on the base paths, runs into fences, and now big times the fan base who had nothing to do with the contract fiasco. Can't be gone fast enough.

Such crap...where's the "epic" Washington media on this?

Where's the "cutting edge" journalist asking the "tough questions"?

1) Hey bro...you mentioned in your statement that you're unable to attend due to "matters beyond your control". Your hearing is Tuesday. NatsFest was today. What matters beyond your control prevented you from being there today, bro?

2) If "matters beyond your control" are your contract grievance, can you please explain why in your opinion, the one is connected to the other?

3) Ultimately, player contracts are the player's responsibility. Since most contracts contain a lot of legal language, players typically hire an agent who in some cases has been professionally trained as a lawyer or sub-contracts a lawyer to review players' contracts and advise them on their best course of action. Reports are that you had a verbal agreement with the club, your agent expected it in the contract and informed you thusly but because you nor your agent, or anyone really, actually read the contract to see if the verbal agreement is in there and it wasn't...you signed it anyway. That's on you, bro...that's not on the team. Why would this prevent you from being at NatsFest?

Obviously he's embarrassed to be associated with the biggest playoff chokers in the MLB. Can't blame him!

Oh fuck...oh no...oh Christ...did I fucking misspell something there, bro? Oh shit, dawg...what the fuck am I gonna' do now? How the fuck will you EVER understand that contrace might...possibly...maybe...could mean "contract"?

Man...and you're so fucking butt-hurt about it too, aren't you bro? I'll tell you what...I know what will make you feel better.

Why don't you go back to room errr....I mean your parents' basement. Don't worry, Mommy will be down soon to smother your genitals with marshmallow fluff while Daddy plays hide the nine iron in your ass and watches you lick your own shit off the end of it. Then you can all watch "Debbie Does Dallas" together.

Geico, Gatorade, Under Armour, and PNC Bank pay this kid a ton of money on the assumption that his popularity will increase their business, so pissing on his fan base was really dumb. Dude already gets booed in every away ballpark, once we send his ass out of town he'll get booed here too. Good riddance to the Cowboys, Yankees, Duke, Lakers fan. Can't wait to heckle him when he screws up another play in the outfield.

Another whose best days in baseball were as a Little League pine-rider. Stupid piece of loud-mouthed trash.

So Nats and Harper signed a two-year extension. Problem solved. Stupid fucks just look more stupid. Same as it fucking ever was.

It's not really an extension as it is more of a guaranteed contract to avoid arbitration.

Time to move on. Harper has resolved his contract issues and is now going to schedule a second FanFest that will be all about Bryce.

Yes...YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Let the butt hurt flow! The sphincter is wide with this one.

Uh, no...Actually my 9 year old son was the one who was wronged by not getting his SINGLE baseball signed. A privilege for which, I would have been delighted to pay for. In addition to buying our tickets to FanFest, I've also spent thousands of dollars on season tickets since 2005 only to see Harper choke on a dick twice in the post-season. A signed baseball isn't asking too much. If Harper had ever won anything, then it would be asking too much.

I know what you can do about that wrecked rectum of yours, though...

Why don't you go back down to your room...errrr, I mean your parents' basement. Don't worry Mommy will be down soon to smother your genitals with marshmallow fluff while Daddy plays hide the nine iron in your ass and watches you lick your own shit off the end of it. The you can all watch "The Baseball Bunch" together...

Hmmm. Rookie of the Year, two All Star teams, two division championships. Not bad for his first three seasons. Way ahead of Ryan Zimmerman.

LMMFGDAO! I see you've lived in Washington for a long, long time...

In team sports, the only thing that matters is championships. Ken Griffey, Jr., Dan Marino, Marcel Dionne and Elgin Baylor have ALL said repeatedly that they would give back all of their individual awards for one championship ring.

Now, Bryce Harper would never say that. And not because he's going to win the World Series...Bryce Harper is just a epic white trash douchebag who is only concerned about himself. As long as he's gettin' paid and avoidin' fan appreciation events...it's all good with B-Harp, right?

Fail...Jayson Werth doesn't speak publicly. All he does is play well in the regular season, sign fatty contracts and then? Shit the fucking bed in the playoffs and operate his Porsche at 3 digits...fuck that asshole, his fucking beard and his priapic playoff performance.

Quoted from above:

>A privilege for which, I would have been
> delighted to pay for.

You could have omitted the second "for".

Also, if you really are a season ticket holder since 2005, you would have (a) been able to get his autograph at last season's Nats Fest'; (b) have had other access to Harper for an autograph; and/or (c) had the team accommodate you in getting a Harper autograph on a baseball in some other way.

That being said,it was a dick move by Harper to pull a no-show, in that he was going to be in a Nats uniform the next two years no matter what, unless Rizzo worked his genius to move him somewhere in exchange for some other player(s) who have the ability to take the Nats to the next level. Harper did, however, have a good postseason last year, albeit too short of a span of games.

Werth played well in the 2012 playoffs, it was only this year that he blew the season.

Not necessarily, NatsFest autographs are based on luck of the draw. I'm not an autograph guy but I've heard a lot of complaints that Harper is not an easy autograph to get, even in spring when most of the other guys are signing.
