When it comes to sports agents I tend to get a little pissed off. These mutants are the sole reason why sports is so screwed up today on so many levels. Scott Borasshole has Johnny Damon convinced that he can get a 7 year deal for 80+ mill. This for a guy with a rag arm and above average bat. I really don't think that Boras is thinking about Damon's future but more is thinking about the percentage he gets per contract. Now is Damon worth 5-6 mill per year for the next 5 years, yes. But realistically Baseball has calmed down on it's bidding wars(excluding the Yanks) and realize that they can follow teams like the A's and build a good farm system and win. But as soon as these young kids have a few years of service in them the Borasshole's of the world take over and screw things up. I guess the days of players staying put with one team is gone. That's sad. Thanks for letting me rant.
