Why is everyone saying the Burnes signing is a shocker? He lives in Phoenix. He just had twins. The D-backs are one of the best teams in the N.L. The taxes in Arizona are low. Its also a much better place to live than the Bay Area or Toronto. Its all good.
Because the Diamondbacks were never mentioned as one of the teams that had interest. And we now know that, in fact, they weren’t pursuing him, but rather were approached by Boras, because Burnes wanted to go there. The size and “out of the blue”-ness of the deal do remind me of Zack Greinke’s deal (Greinke got $206.5mm/6).
Also, why is Arizona is a better place to live than the Bay Area or especially Toronto? I’ve never lived in AZ, but I have lived in SF and Toronto, and Arizona sounds like hell. For one thing, it’s like 1000 degrees in the summer. And a neighbor of mine told me the other day that he and his wife lived in Arizona for a few years, intending to retire there, but hated it and got out. In addition to the weather, he said it was way too conservative and homogenous, full of identical-looking strip malls, McMansions, and extreme right-wingers (and he and his wife are originally from Nebraska!). No thanks.
@@IdliAmin_TheLastKingofSambaridk ask Burnes why he has his home here and lives here lol. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder man. Weather yes, I would say the bay is beautiful, but it’s a clusterfu** of a place. Scottsdale is just kinda its own beauty. You have to see it yourself.
Love the Canadian tones of BNS
I don’t understand why the opening is still broken. It’s been weeks.

@@ForgedDr3ams Weather in Arizona is perfect 10 months out of the year. Frisco is very expensive and very dangerous.
@@IdliAmin_TheLastKingofSambar Appreciate your opinions, but your political views were unnecessary.
