Jack: Here. Here's what we can do.
Boras: Ah. Oh, man. You know? I heard that there was someone else willing to pay more. Do you know how much this guy is worth? He'd be your franchise! Surely he deserves better than this! *waves hand condescendingly*
Jack: This is the best offer you're going to get from any team this off season for this player. Take it.
Boras: Ah. Oh, man. You know? I'll tell him, I'll tell him. I can't guarantee anything, donchyaknow. I'm sure he'll consider it.
Jack: Quit jerking us around. You're being ridiculous. I'm not kidding, if you don't take it in the next...*checks watch* 5 days we're going to plan B and you'll never sniff anything close to this deal.
Boras: Right, right. Sure, sure. I got it.
::5 days later::
Jack: We rescind our offer. We've traded for Jesus Montero. Congratulations, you've screwed your client over.
...aaaaaaaaand Boras wins. *headdesk*
