Getting rid of a disgruntled, useless anchor, and taking on a gruntled anchor that adds the physicality that this oft called "butter soft" team so desperately needs? I'm a-ok with this.
As someone said earlier, I think the biggest pill to swallow is that we all made fun of this contract for so long, now we look like fools. But that's just pride getting in the way of what is a move that makes total sense for both sides.
We just traded our blue (pouty) anchor for a red (firey) anchor. Matches better.
