My Pops Forever RIP
It's baseball and it's April so I get the national media sleeping on it but Judge's insane first month should be acknowledged more.

And I also totally get people thinking "do it in October", I'm one of them myself, but it doesn't have to be one or the other.
It's like what I said after the season ended: he could have another MVP year and it's not gonna feel as enjoyable because none of it means anything when he's popping up, striking out and not coming through. I'm not saying it ain't impressive and Lord knows this lineup needs it, but he's gotta do it in October for all of it to mean anything.

Yeah he’s not the first superstar player that has to deal with high expectations and he certainly won’t be the last.

I know it’s not the sole reason they lost but that dropped pop fly still haunts me :snoop:

Aaron Judge is playing as close to juiced Barry Bonds as any player ever has.

And to say none of it means anything unless the Yankees win a title is saying that what Bonds did also didn’t mean anything since he never won a title.

Consider how preposterous that is.
