the message was clear: 1) you're a cocky asshole 2) you're the best player on the team that is currently challenging us, and we (phils) see you (nats) as real competition, but we're still the best (even though we're not playing like it, so hopefully this will wake our team up)
the message was clear, it was fine, and I have no problem with it. It honestly has nothing to do with being a phils fan
nobody here ever punched their younger brother in the arm, just to remind him he's your younger brother?
that said, I love how Harper handled it. great baserunning on the single and the SB
