No, not worth the money, and never will be, and the Jays are saddled with his contract. But all we can ask and hope for is that he carries his weight, and he did that this season. It's been a great year, all around.

The .gif pronouncer debate has been raging in the illustrator/graphic artist world for a long time and in your own words "I get that language evolves, that the Oxford Dictionary deems both pronunciations correct, and that perhaps more people pronounce it "gif," like "gift.” What this means is that NOBODY is wrong, that both pronunciations are correct and everybody wins yo!
