What are you talking about?
He has a great career ahead of him in celebrity wrestling. Of course he will probably quickly run out of fat old guys to challenge, but it should be worth a few Benjamins while it lasts.

Add Damon to that list.
Good point.
Guys.......Let's not turn this into a racial thing. I don't feel like editing, deleting, and moving. O.K.?? Let's keep this as the semi-intelligent discussion that it is.
its about respect....pedro is the best has been the best., but since he isn't surround with high price talent, and or not in pinstrips he is considered less of a player....no way zito should have gotten cy young that year over him.,. and when nomar and trot are back, it will make him a specail player this year., stop hating on pedro cause he isn't winning WS when there hasnt' been a pen, or a team even close to the yankees in boston....this year its finally close to even, and he will excel
"you couldn't get the crowd to throw their hands up if you swallowed all their fingers"
To the best of my recollection, nobody said anything about Pedro not winning the World Series. Mostly they just said that he's an arrogant oink and needs to shut up and play baseball. Which is pretty accurate.
He signed the contract, he can play it out and get a new one. There's no reason to talk about it.

Pedro is making $17.5 million this year, which makes him the highest paid pitcher in baseball this year. Is that enough money in his pocket or should the owners go bankrupt paying him as much as he wants?
