Crazy 💰 
Yanks should let him go at that amount.

Hard disagree. The Yankees should be the Yankees and sign everyone they want for whatever it takes because they’re the Yankees and they can

Reportedly Judge took less money to return to the Yanks.  Quite interesting huh? 

who now, cliffy? rodon?

Lol it is, and if both are true quite the bad look for the Padres

The only reason to chose San Diego over New York or Philly (at the moment) is the weather.  I never thought Judge was leaving the Yanks and it's better for baseball that he is with the Yanks.  

Hiw much time have you spent in San Diego?
There are some pretty amazing things about that area.  (It is not just a place with the best weather.)
I like Philly much more than NY, would be a no contest decision there for me.  
SD?  If I'm rich as hell it is tough to imagine a much nicer place to live.

Also, being a 30 year old dude with literally half a billion dollars, as great as the cities are, if you pick San Diego or Philly over New York you are legitimately dumb. All things being equal

Bad take 

Ha.  No accounting for taste, I guess. 
I grew up with Yankees fans but I'm not one.
Is there an unlocked world to filthy rich people in NYC?  I'm sure.  
I can hear some of my family members having the same take as you, touting the Uber rich life in "the world's greatest city "  Wonders we could never know, even if we were very well off.

I know that the elite have different access in other cities as well.  It would be great fun to have.

Also, not everyone goes gaga over New York.  I've not lived there, but there is a reason for that.  Both of my parents grew up there, my older brother lived there,  Mrs FMe wanted to move there when we came back east from SoCal.  I was there weekly for a while in the 2010s doing biz with a guy who was in the minor leagues of the NYC Elite.  

Would be a fun discussion over a few drinks, love to hear about how whacked my opinions are.     

I'm glad Yankees fans got to keep their guy.  Hope he likes hanging out with the families of Icahn, Bloomberg, Murdock, Ross, and the like.  

What do I know about being a fan of a ballclub who spends, anyway.  The Redlegs give away most of their players as soon as their roster starts to get pricey.  The Yanks have gone 13 years without a WS but the Reds have gone 32.

I've lived in both coasts and Cali is my favorite place to be but, NY has much more in such a smaller proximity.

Any music act you can think of plays here. Stones throw from the Caribbean and Europe.

Part of being filthy rich is stuff could be brought to me.  As far as music acts, LA is fine.  Flights don't play into it, too much, for me as I'm good with an extra 3-4 hours if I want to fly to Paris so that I can live where I want to live.
Give me Hawaii (Lanai if I'm a big baller like Judge) and I won't miss the Caribbean -- keeping in mind that my massive place in La Jolla or wherever I live is just as good as being in the Caribbean.

This is silly, though, it is Judge's call and we see he would rather be in NYC, for whatever his reasons.

This is such a dumb argument. There are plenty of valid reasons to want to live in NYC, Phila or SD. It's not like there's a Siberia team in MLB.
