A rod

[bassNspear]

350 mill. Give me a break. How can a baseball player be worth that much money.

What does everyone else think.

I think the 12 years is the most ridiculous thing about the whole deal. That puts him at 44 years old making near 40 mill a year the way the deal is structured. Add in a no trade clause and who ever signs him is going to be in a bad situation 10 years down the road from now.

The whole thing is an embarrassment.

Not to mention Scott Boras...I can't think of enough bad things to say about this slimey SOB. The world could do with a lot fewer greedy bastards like him.

The sad thing is someone is going to pay that much and get him. Twins?

It could be what's needed to get professional salaries back in prospective.

A-rod is good if not the best. I dont want MN to buy into his ego, and the whole over paid ball player thing! I hope nobody signs him, or he takes less money then he was making with the Yanks .
