Listen to this man. Seven years of college, you know. Trying to reason with 2020 and, now, 2022.

Not That These MLB Players Are Getting Paid TOO MUCH, But Wow!!!

From the Dec. 9, 2011, Chicago Tribune.

By the numbers with new California Angels player Albert Pujols and his ten-year $254 million contract.


1-- Powerball jackpot claimed by three GRBs in Connecticut in November.

7-- Seasons of Kansas City Royals team salaries based on 2011 team payroll of $36, 126,400 (lowest in MLB).

78-- Lakeview Chicago homes for new president of Chicago Cubs baseball operations, Theo Epstein. He "only" paid $3.25 million for it.

306,393-- Top-of-the-line iPads 2s at $829 apiece.

509,018-- For basic iPad 2s at $499 apiece.

10,180,360-- Copies of former Gov Rod Blagojevich's "The Governor" still available for $24.95 on Amazon (with free shipping).

12,700,000-- Groupon shares at its initial offering at $20 apiece.

I knew there was a reason I hardly ever go out to see a major league baseball game anymore.

And then, there's the remarkable Adam Dunn.
