Hell if I were playing I would probably take no more than $2 mil a year and be happy with that. Play till I couldn't anymore and put a lot of it away for vacations and good schooling for the kids.

Wow... spoken like two people <i>not</i> making multi-million dollar salaries.

Just for shits and giggles, let's say you were both making the salaries you listed above. Now, if another team wanted to pay $3 million (or more) for your services, you would turn them down out of the goodness of your hearts, and out of sense for team loyalty, right?

And if you won $100 million in a Powerball lottery, you'd only keep about $5 million to "live comfortably", and give the rest away to charity, huh?

Boy, you two should join the clergy... they need a couple of saints right about now. :tongue:
