In an era of hot takes and drama based eyeball bait, I find it refreshing to appreciate the simple, pleasant things in sports. Often times we “cheer for laundry” (copyright Bill Simmons) and we don’t get to pick the individuals who put on the jersey. Sometimes that requires you to talk yourself into seeing the good in anyone (which is admirable to a point). But boy does it make it easier when you actually, genuinely like and admire the players that lace ‘em up for your favorite team.
Personally, I find this entire roster extremely likable from top to bottom.
