Sometimes in sports, the impossible is possible. An Asian-American basketball player from Harvard once took over Madison Square Garden for weeks. A media-darling quarterback who was known more for praying than he was his throwing arm once beat the Pittsburgh Steelers in the playoffs. An eight seed once won all but one game on it’s way to the Stanley Cup Finals. Crazy things happen in sports sometimes.
We’re used to crazy things happening on the field, but when something insane happens in trade negotiations, it really makes us think about the organizations we worship. Crazy things happen all the time in trades, like losing Taylor Hall for an above average second-line defenseman.
