Sources told CNBC that Yankees players recently
received a letter from the Major League Baseball Players Association
that informed them that there was mistake in the calculation of the
World Series championship share . . . the letter told those who had full shares that three people (two
trainers and a player) were not allocated their proper share. The
result? Those who received full shares are now being asked to pay back
approximately $10,000 each.
I blame A-Rod. As I often say, he’s cheated the
game, cheated the fans, cheated himself and cheated whoever it is who calculates World Series shares. He’s history’s greatest monster, really.

I bet A-Rod is the one player mentioned who’s getting all the extra money allocated to him. Muahahahaha!

Uh, don’t you think if a player mentioned didn’t get a full share, and players are being asked to give money back, that the player mentioned DIDN’T GET ENOUGH money?

Total amount / # shares
How hard is that? This sport revolves around statistics and they can’t do simple division!

So 46 guys have to send back ten grand each. That’s $460,000.00 that gets split three ways. So the number crunchers messd up and shorted three guys $153,000.00 each? Really?! Am I missing something here on the math and what I read in his article? …just sayin’. Kinda goofy!

It’s called being pithy…sarcastic…having a sense of humor. Apparently, all of those things are lost on you.

I’m not sure what I enjoyed more. Craig’s original post, or Tim’s awesome comment.

Hey Craig, see if you can link A-Rod to global warming and the recent earthquakes in Haiti and Chile while your at it.
Just kidding, I know those things are his fault!
