Over-analyzing why a star player, the best player of the team by far, should be gone, makes you a person of bad faith regardless how logical your argument may be presented as.
Let Rutherford and Alvin and the team make that decision for us. No one, not you, not the media, nor the flying monkeyism from media by fans has any value.
However, repeating “player be gone” ad infinitum does have the potential of major circumstances; the player may not want to re-sign here. This is a very small town and the players hear that sh!t every day.
But hey; there are no correlation between fans desiring a player to stay and therefore a player re-signing, and fans arrogantly saying the player should leave and a player not re-signing.
