He helped the Yankees when a championship take that ? off. This dude took steroids and ruined his reputation for the organization and did whatever it took to help the Yankees win. Blame Baseball for taking his super powers away.Anti_matter wrote: »

The contract the Rangers gave A-Rod.
It was a bad contract in a sense that we turned around and traded him to NY.
I think we finished paying him outta our pockets last year. -
The Mets have to pay Bobby Bonilla 1.1 million annually until the year 2035 !!! He hustled the hell out of them.

How Bobby Bonilla Landed The Luckiest Baseball Contract Ever
http://www.celebritynetworth.com/articles/entertainment-articles/bobby-bonilla-baseball-contract/When it came time to negotiate with The Mets, Bobby Bonilla was smart enough to secure one of the most forward thinking contracts in sports history. He knew The Mets wanted him gone but technically owed him $5.9 million. He also knew he had a young son and daughter who would be looking to go to college, and as a 36 year old, he likely had many years worth of life to live. So at this point, Bobby and his agents offered a unique compromise: The Mets would release Bobby to play for another team and they would delay the $5.9 million payment for 11 years, with interest. In essence, The Mets agreed to pay Bobby a total of $29.8 million (instead of $5.9 million) in 25 annual installments of $1.192 million, starting in the year 2011. When he received his first $1.192 payment, Bobby was 48 years old and had not played in the big leagues for 10 years. He has basically guaranteed himself a big league salary every year for the rest of his life. Today Bobby Bonilla makes more per year from the Mets than most of the team's active players! So why would The Mets agree to this deal? -

They might need to throw him and that contract in the same conversation as Jackie Robinson, George Washington Carver with the peanuts, the brother that invented the traffic light, etc, etc.

1. Allan Houston - King ? . Got rewarded big money for the Knicks last playoff run. Played like what? A game? Son was one of the highest paid players in the league and hadn't been on the court in years.
2. Keith Van Horn - not as good as the above but also getting top 10 money after being out the league for years at one point.
3. Rashard Lewis - Orlando gave duke like 90 million and he turned into certified trash the next season. The fall off was legendary.
4. Hedo Turkoglu - Think the Raptors broke him off, and he went to ? ASAP.
5. Ben Wallace - went from beast mode in Detroit, got them 55 m's from the Bulls, and nosedived into oblivion. -
I know Ben Wallace's uncle. Cool ass old head. I call em Uncle Joe
