That's why someone can opt out of a $25 million a year contract because there is always a preordained fool out there who will go to $30 million in order to install a big sissy into their lineup.
I mean who cares about the money? The sucker fans will pay it.
Let's get rid of the notion about any sports hallowed "the game" status.
It doesn't exist anymore.
