    I got it from USA Today. The numbers I posted include deferred money and things like that. It's the reason A Rod can opt out of his contract, he's no longer the highest paid, or within $1 million of the highest paid position player or something to that effect.

    That's crazy. He's still making 25 grand more than you for the year.

    So I guess you're one of those guys that thinks the Beckham deal is okay, since the team isn't paying the majority of the contract, but rather advertisers are?

    I think you misunderstood me or i just said it wrong. Regardless of what he's making(he's earned it) he doesn't like the lack of character players on the team. Instead we have a bunch of "superstars". Has nothing to do with the money.
