Readers Would Gladly Take Their Chances With These Contracts

Get a life, Mike Downey. You want us to feel sorry for Ryne Sandberg for getting $7.1 million in 1992 and he might get zero dollars in 1997 or 1998? Let me see. If I get my math right and he makes $7.1 million in 1992 and gets nothing from 1993-98, that makes him averaging more than $1 million a year.

Holy cow, I do feel sorry for him. I never knew he would have it so bad.
