He has enough money for a thousand lifetimes, taking more money is just saying, "hey, look at me I am the highest paid which means I am the best". If Albert actually meant all the BS he talked about just wanting to win and loving St. Louis and all that, he would have fired his agent and taken a fair deal to stay in St. Louis.
Pretty much sums it up. He needed another $40MM? Yea ok.

I know it's been referenced, but I didn't see this quote in here from a couple years ago:

Quote:
"People from other teams want to play in St. Louis and they're jealous that we're in St. Louis because the fans are unbelievable. So why would you want to leave a place like St. Louis to go somewhere else and make $3 or $4 more million a year? It's not about the money. I already got my money. It's about winning and that's it. It's about accomplishing my goal and my goal is to try to win. If this organization shifts the other way then I have to go the other way."
Damn

This is how we KU fans felt when Roy Williams left after saying he wasn't going to numerous times and even cussed at a reporter for bringing it up. Then he was gone. Stings. Luckily we beat his ass in the final four in '08 en route to a title. Now we're pretty much over it heh.

Roy didn't leave for this kind of money though obviously and I'm not sure which way stings more for the fans. Like KU basketball though, the Cardinals will go on just fine without Pujols.

I know you Cards fans feel slighted and I get that... maybe remember the first half of the season when he sucked... and that he was only really good in one of the World Series games... and you guys still won. What I'm saying is Pujols isn't the be-all, end-all. He's one guy who's now overpaid like many before him and heading into the downside of his career. You guys might even end up with a more overall complete team without one guy making so much.

**** Pujols. He's another money grubbing, no loyalty athelete. Not the first and won't be the last. I have a feeling when his career is over he'll look back on his time in StL and those two rings as the high point of his life.

He was pretty much putting up his career average numbers from May on. He had a terrible April.

It just seemed longer I guess. I remember watching games thinking "this is going to hurt his free agency." Yeah... well... I've been wrong before.

Nice article by Nightengale detailing the negotiations.

http://www.usatoday.com/sports/baseb...D=ane1966aswcs

I'm not pissed at Albert, but I am upset about this(if true):

Quote:
Los Angeles Dodgers manager Don Mattingly participated in Pujols' charity tournament Saturday. They had become friends over the years and Mattingly sensed something was awry in Pujols' relationship with the Cardinals' front office.
"There was a frustration there," said Mattingly, who grew up a Cardinals' fan in Evansville, Ind. "You could just sense something was wrong. He was getting frustrated by it.
"I hoped he would stay in St. Louis because he's such a legend there. He's like [Derek] Jeter and Cal [Ripken], but I also knew he would go where his heart would take him. People talk about the money, but I knew he would be following his heart."
Pujols' frustration stemmed from two years of not being able to come to an agreement with the Cardinals on a long-term contract extension and sensing the team didn't view him as a priority. He helped the team to the World Series championship this season in the final year of an eight-year, $116 million deal.

Oh I think it's obvious there was something he was very unhappy with about St. Louis. Whether that was real or imagined in his own head, who knows. But if he really wanted to stay he never would've let it get to this point in the first place. He would've signed last offseason.

I get why Cardinals fans would be a little bitter, but it takes a lot of butthurt to put this on the scoreboard...

Huh, it's just youtube.

As you probably know, the Blues played the Anaheim Ducks tonight... on the scoreboard, they had "Random Local Athlete" with a Ducks logo in the background, then went to a pic of Pujols with an Angels' cap and Angels background. Then the same thing for St. Louis, with a pic of David Freese during the WS. The crowd reaction was... well, less than enthusiastic.

Blues scoreboard showing a picture of Pujols in an Angels jersey.

Segment was "Random local Athlete in Anaheim-Albert Pujols. Random local Athlete in St. Louis- David Freese."
