He has had a reputation for negotiating enormous contracts in the past, but it's gotten to the point now where he's probably not doing his clients any favors by chasing prospective bidders away.
The A-Rod fiascos in both Texas and New York (and the aborted contract offer from Boston) offer some interesting insight into how he's has sometimes adversely affected the players he represents.
Boras my be the poster child for enormous contracts but I just cant help speculating as to whether this is not just about Boras but about enormous contracts in general.
You see many people complaining about the salaries and contracts of Wall Street and other industries as well. Now we finally are seeing a news worthy pushback against clients of Boras as well. Coincidence?
I think this may be strategic on the part of owners and that they are trying to use pubic opinion as a backdrop for this.
