Sacked For A Loss

MLB The NY Mets signed Johan Santana to what
works out to be a seven year $150 million dollar
contract. Am I of the few that thinks that that is
insane? That works out to $21,428,571.43 per
season, and since I was quick to critize the
Yankees on the Clemens deal I hafta do the same
here. That works out to $649,350.69 per start.
That is $6,493.51 per pitch based on a 100 pitch
count. ARE YOU FRIGGIN KIDDING ME???
NFL The Pro Football Hall Of Fame took 22
years to elect Fred Dean, 14 for Andre Tippett,
12 for Art Monk, 10 for Gary Zimmerman, and
19 for Emmitt Thomas, so my questions is what
the heck were they waiting for if these guys are
Hall Of Famers? Did they become more HOF'ers
after they were rejected they first few times?
I mean they didn't play another down, and they
had already waited the mandatory five year
period after they retired, so why now?
I will tell you why, because they are a bunch of
fairies thats why. It's political and it's a huge
popularity contest, which is why the HOF is such
a sham, and the way you get elected should be
drastically changed. The people who vote should
be ashamed that they sometimes wait until
someone dies before they elect them in.
Take into account that the punter on the NFL
75th anniversary team was Ray Guy, and he nor
any other punter is in the HOF, and this year
was his final year of eligibility. Now it's up to
the veterans committee. So apparently after
Not punting for about 20 years he will be more
of a HOF'er than he was yesterday. WHAT A JOKE
