It's no wonder this country is so far down the list of... well... anything that relates to education, comprehension, understanding...

Forgiven. I've had those days too often to mention.

You almost got me with that one.

I remember Mecca championing Adam Dunn for the Royals.

If Pujols doesn't start doing something he will be on that list soon.

The list:

10. Lamar Odom, Dallas Mavericks -- Mavericks on the hook for $8.9 million
9. Matt Cassel, Kansas City Chiefs -- Has a six-year, $62.7 million contract
8. John Lackey, Boston Red Sox -- Has a 26-23 record, and a 5.26 ERA with Boston
7. Scott Gomez, Montreal Canadiens -- Scored 11 points in 38 games this season
6. Vernon Wells, Los Angeles Angels -- Batted .218 last season
5. Greg Oden, Portland Trail Blazers -- Played 82 games in five seasons
4. Barry Zito, San Francisco Giants -- Left off Giants' 2010 playoff roster
3. Rashard Lewis, Washington Wizards -- Earned roughly $22 million for low production this season
2. Wade Redden, New York Rangers -- see the details
1. Adam Dunn, Chicago White Sox -- see the details

Wow, Pioli has given THE WORST CONTRACT IN THE NFL, according to this.

Personally, I think the Kevin Kolb contract seems as bad or worse.

That's a solid observation.

Sadly, for both, there are late round QBs who are better (Stanzi and Skelton) who will not see the field because of the investment made in Cassel and Kolb.

I'm not sure how Carl Crawford, Joe Johnson, and Ryan Howard didn't make the list ahead of Castle. I think Castle's deal is ****ing terrible but it pales in comparison with how bad any of these guy's deals are. I mean the reason Castle's deal sucks is because he was just mediocre enough that we never did anything to get out from under it. We had ample opportunity to not pay him, those guys are all going to make $100M+ to be a Mark Castle.

Castle is handicapping an entire franchise. Can you say the same about the other two?

From a contract standpoint, Cassel's is much less of an issue than the others.
