The jersey ad still sucks

Cleary is the one who used a PTO with Philly to leverage a last-minute meeting in an airplane hanger after the writing was on the wall and we were maxed out on cap and roster space, when he knew damn well Babcock would go to bat for him.
We can act like Cleary didn't pull some strings and just signed a contract that was given to him, but I don't buy that for a second.
Maybe he did, but no GM should get worked by a player like that, let alone with as little value to the team as Cleary did at that point.
