How far south is the key?

but if you are willing to give 8 years, why dick around, give him the other two years. So what if he's only hitting 15 dingers a year at that point. The marketing will pay for the salary.

This needs to get done, but it's a fine line between a great deal for both and Albert Belle.

No truth to the rumor he also asked the Arch be laid on its side and remodeled into a giant #5.

It was rejected in favor of Albert of being able to have sex with all brides in st. Louis county before the wedding night. The "Braveheart" rule.

Strauss is reporting that talks still have a "pulse".

supposely, Cards have offered 8 years and south of $30 million. Whats that mean $27-$28 million a year?

If Pujols wants $30 million a year for 10 years. They are not so far apart.

If they are that close, I think the Cards will give into Albert.

If those numbers are true from the pd then I don't see how a deal can't get done.

Pujols has since requested a pound of flesh from every resident of St. Louis. The Cards have deemed this not unrealistic and are currently in talks with Slay.

huh? close?

8 years x 27 million is 216 million dollars.......300 million - 216 million = 84 million....close.........wrong.

Buster onley is tweeting that albertgeddon is here. No deal is done and will not get done.
