That can't feel good at all. 

No wonder Die Hard is taking up golf.  Better than wasting another summer watching the Mets.

Beginning on July 1, the Mets start paying Bobby Bonilla his deferred money.  He'll get $1.2 million per year until... 2035.

[Sgt PSN]

Lolololol.  Bobby B is caking off nice. 

[Don Ho]

For walking-around money, he holds a cushy $200,000-a-
year job as a "special assistant" at the MLB Players Association in Manhattan but doesn't have to go into the office

Good lord.  And he's still getting paid by the Orioles. 

[QB Eagles]

That Bonilla story comes up like every six months, but it definitely bears repeating. One of the funniest facts in all of sports.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Who was his agent and can I hire him to negotiate my next raise?

[Munson]

As far as I know it'sn ot that rare...I"m pretty sure Manny is gonna get like 2 mil a year from the Sox for the next 16 years

[Geowhizzer]

At least the Sawx got something out of Manny.

[Sgt PSN]

You talking about how the green monster still smells like pee? 

[DH]

[DH]

of all the shtein the mets have been through since beltrans strikeout in 06, this, hands-down, is the most embarrassing for me as a fan. this farging guy. i dont understand how he can say the things he did...i have yet to read the article, but the quotes they published are utterly ridiculous.
