Anytime any team in Texas loses at anything the sporting world is a better place.  So I am thankful the Rangers lost.  Cool

I can't go as far as any Texas team, I was hoping that Houston would have beaten the Colts last night.  Cool

OK, hold on.  18 million a year?  I can see football and hockey players making insane amounts of cash because there's a big risk of doing MAJOR damage to your body... but baseball?  Your arm get's hurt but you can still flip burgers so it's not THAT big of a deal.  What am I missing here?  How can anyone justify that amount of cash for a baseball player?

They still play 162 games a year over the course of 6 months, that's a lot of work in one year.

And they make the owners even more - MLB has the lowest ratio of revenue to player salary of any of the four major sports.


That said, 7 years for Jason Werth is absolutely, positively insane.

I don't follow baseball anymore (gave up around 2001); this highlight from 1995 still rules, though...
