Will be fun once reality sets in and you get the Lubbock Chamber of Commerse trying to beg/bully mean ol Texas into coming to town for football once every few years again...
Ohtani allegedly going to be reading a statement to the press at 2:45 pacific time, will not be taking questions. Twitter seems to have found a pre-recorded version:
Gonna take forever but still can't wait for enough details to come out of this to figure out who is lying so far: Ippei doing seppuku falling on his sword to protect the cash cow, Ohtani being a financial/public relations novice and not realizing paying his buddies illegal gambling debt isn't the best look (or even better Ohtani being a straight gambling addict), Dodgers front office personnel who all must have collectively shit their pants when this story broke and were desperately trying to claw their way back in front of it. Manfraud and MLB waiting till 5:30pm on the first Friday of the NCAA tournament to dump the statement that they were actually gonna "investigate" this...
None of it really adds up yet with the "oh no Ohtani got 4.5 million stolen from him" story that came out after the first story.
Really easy way to do this is fire off a bunch of surly logo decals and get them slapped on stuff around town: restroom doors, urinals, street signs, police cruisers, the little breathalyzer games at the bar, etc
