For any Washington fan who just so happens to stumble onto this article: welcome to Being Good. Once you’re a good team, everyone wants to get paid.

Terry McLaurin is the best thing that’s happened to Washington in my lifetime. He obviously deserves his money. But instead of taking care of their own, Josh Harris and his Howie Roseman wannabe, Adam Peters, decided to hand out big contracts to a bunch of old, washed-up players this offseason.

Again — welcome to the trials and tribulations of having a good football team.

Roseman has been in this position countless times. And every single time, he does what he has to do to keep his franchise cornerstones. Washington fumbled McLaurin just to give a contract to Diaper Deebo so he could load up on cheeseburgers. Lay off the loaded fries, Deebo. You’re gonna have to work overtime this season, it seems.

What a travesty. Just when Washington fans thought they arrived, they were quickly reminded their beloved franchise is still run by money-grubbing billionaires who don’t actually give a fuck if the team wins or not.

Take it from a Sixers fan — Josh Harris will fuck your franchise into the ground and make you watch from your cuck chair. Oh, what’s that? You liked winning? The best I can do is re-sign the ghost of Zach Ertz and bring in Lizzo Samuels to be WR1.

And don’t worry — you’ll probably fumble Jayden Daniels’ contract too when the time comes. Enjoy him while you can.
