Kerry Wood Three Year Deal

[ironman]

No word on how much

[kaiser]

What do you mean "No word on how much?" Isn't it 32 million over 3 years?

[ironman]

I could explain myself as saying I meant per year, but I won't.

Do you actually read the articles?

[Dr.Gonzo]

His new agreement calls for a $3 million signing bonus, payable at $1 million annually over three years, and salaries of $7 million this season, $8.5 million in 2005 and $11 million in 2006.

To counter this news, I’ll bet the cards sign Albert Pujols again.

Ok, let me explain ...

It popped up in my aggregator.

I looked at the report. It didn't have much information.

So I open up the New Topic and post it.

Right before I hit POST, I notice the AP has a link with more information.

I post that link.

I didn't change the text as when I cut and paste, I didn't hit the right keys.

Mystery solved.

Ha!

St. Louis, MO--- The St. Louis Cardinals today, in a move believed to counter the signing of Kerry Wood by the Cubs, signed Albert Pujols to another 7 year, $100 million deal.
"Take that!" Walt Jocketty exclaimed, directing his comments toward the Cubs. A reporter corrected Jocketty, reminding him that this still means they only have one Pujols, not two. Jocketty then said that his dog ate his paper, and left quickly in a rush.

In a related story, Mike Smith was hit by a Fed-Ex truck believed to have been carrying computers intended for certain U-Bid customers. (just kidding WS).

They're supposedly close to a new deal with Derrek Lee too.
