its pretty much official....

41.7 million guaranteed! $80+ million total. in detroit of all places?! how about using that money to stimulate the local economy??? did anyone watch the pistons game tonight? they reported tickets were going for $11. that won't even buy you a hot dog at the new yankee stadium....

everyone wants to point fingers, how about we start with professional sports.

yea, that contract is absurd, especially for a guy who A) hasn't earned any of it yet and B) isn't a lock to be the next Matt Ryan or Peyton Manning.

aren't they restricting these big contracts for next year, which is why so many underclassmen came out for the draft this year?

...did you know the Civil War is over as well?

Why are incentive based contracts so uncommon? just pay people if they exceed expectations. end of story.
