      Harper got booed because he threw the entire organization, including the fans, under the bus, after he was the number one fan favorite throughout his whole stint. If Jon Lester badmouthed the Cubs, and implied that Cubs fans didn't appreciate him, in his first press conference as a Nat, don't you think that would kind of *irk* you? Harper deserved to get booed.
