zackster Bobby Bonilla retired from the MLB in 2001. The Mets will be paying him until 2035, when he will be 72. He gets just under $1.2M per year throughout the time frame. It is the world heavyweight champion worst sports contract.
ScottBailey zackster in Top Trumps - ‘Worst Contracts Ever’… you win Edit: Love that there’s a Bobby Bonilla day (1st July) when Mets fans openly celebrate Bobby picking up his annual cheque. Big League BANTS!
vinnyt77 zackster I heard about this for the first time recently. Something about the Mets owner/GM being in deep with investments with Bernie Madoff - and therefore thinking that his vast payouts from his investments would more than cover the compound interest on Bonilla’s contract. Turned out well, that.

Mad_Cyril Old-Dutch not sure having the Don climbing on you is a great price to pay. Zacko would probably love it
vinnyt77 zackster Isn’t he gonna struggle to run if he’s being prosecuted and potentially convicted in a criminal case from the 6th January insurrection?
Amps zackster Here we go! Is this your Archduke Franz Ferdinand moment? Will the CIA just fuck it all off and make it a proper dictatorship or true corpratocracy? Will MTV start playing music again? What happened to the ‘good flavours’ of Snapple?
gcw What’s the general consensus on Dave Rubin? I have a mate who sends me clips of the Rubin report quite regularly. Is he a serious commentator, or a laughing stock over there?
mono-stereo Must say I’m looking forward to the resumption of the special relationship with Trump and Truss at the helm. I’m long on Pork Markets.
