The Word of Pap.



According to Ian Browne Jonathan Papelbon held court for nineteen minutes after he finished his workout this morning. Even though it's generally accepted that he's looking forward to raking in the cash in two years, he insists that that's not the truth:

"I think that's the perception, that I'm going to go somewhere else, but it's all a perception. Right now this is the way it's working out. It's that simple. It's one year at a time, it's working out and both sides are happy. Why would you try to do anything else is my way of thinking. Of course I'd love to be with Boston for a long term."

Huh. You'd think someone who has a reputation as a shoot-from-the-hip kind of guy who says that he fully intends to rake in as much cash as he can, wouldn't be offended that people would take him and accept him at his word. Of course, it's night like he plays for Tampa who wouldn't be able to afford him once he reached free agency.
