Taken from Rick Reilly's Column 7/9/08...

Or maybe we should just simplify. "I'd take Alex Rodriguez's wallet," says Yankees fan Dave Villegas, an Ithaca College student. "I'd spend $4 million after the game because he'd cancel the card. I'd buy property—a nice Manhattan apartment—and probably a Shelby Cobra. And I'd still have his ID. I'd show that at bars." Sorry, pal, A-Rod's wallet is already spoken for—by C-Rod.



Zing!!!!!

From Bill Simmons' Draft Diary XII...


5:23: Just took a quick look through reader e-mails from the past hour and everyone seems to agree: We're all excited for the Gay-Love Era in Memphis.

I didn't actually read it -- just saw "gay-love era" and assumed. I guess the countdown was premature.

Ok, time for today's quote...from Rick Reilly's column about NBA players spending themselves broke, the top ten ways to do it....


4. Buy a jet. They burn money like the Pentagon. Do you realize it costs $50,000 just to fix the windshield on one? Scottie Pippen borrowed $4.375 million to buy some wings and spent God knows how much more for insurance, pilots and fuel. Finally, his wallet cried uncle. The courts say he still owes $5 million, including interest. See you in coach, Scottie! (For that matter, why not a yacht? Latrell Sprewell kept his 70-foot Italian-made yacht tied up in storage until the bank repossessed it, in August 2007. He probably sat at home and cried about that—until the bank foreclosed on his house, this past May.)
