The more I watch, read, or write about sports, the more I believe that I am an idiot for doing so. These are the guys I idolize and spend a great majority of my time discussing, yet in most cases I am disgusted by them. Gary Sheffield has nearly put me over the edge from general disgust to outright hatred towards athletes. I know all athletes are not bad guys, in fact, there are a lot of good guys in sports. Gary Sheffield, however, is not a good guy. Please read the title of this article about Sheffield. Go ahead and read it right now. You may want to read the entire thing. That article absolutely disgusts me, and if it doesn’t disgust you, you are probably a pedophile. Thirteen million dollars! Thirteen million dollars! They are trying to give the man 13 million dollars and he is pissed off. He played 39 games last year and was out 4 months of the season and was paid in full. Now the team wants to pay him again, and he is angry. Doesn’t that want to make you spike your computer monitor? Are athletes that distanced from reality? I can’t wait until I have enough money that I don’t care if I alienate myself from the entire United States. This is like someone handing you a bag of money on the street and then you bitching them out because they didn’t carry it home for you too. I didn’t know my stance on capital punishment until I read that story.
Good Christ this man is a clown. He claims that he wanted to test his value on the open market, and that he is angry with the Yankees for picking up this 13 million dollar option. Just shut your pampered silver spoon piece of garbage mouth. "This will not work, this will not work at all… I don’t want to play first base this year for them. I will not do that," Sheffield said earlier this week. Can you envision him stamping his feet when he said this. You think by the age of 37 that he wouldn’t have to do something like this in public. He could go to Brian Cashman and discuss his options and explain to him what Gary wants for Gary. But no, he has to make himself look like the spoiled, arrogant, out of touch loser that he is, in front of the entire world. Give this a try douchebag: honor the contract that YOU signed, swallow your pride and take your 13 million dollars and play a child’s game. I know its not easy Gary, I can really sympathize with you. I don’t want you to play for the Yankees either. In fact, I would rather you weren’t blessed with baseball abilities and had to use your intellect to make a living. At that point 13 million might actually seem like a good asking price. In fact, with your intelligence Gary, $6.50 an hour might actually be your earning potential. I don’t think these idiots know that they won the genetic lottery. I understand that a ton of hard work goes into being a professional athlete and I’m not taking anything away from Sheffield (yes I am) or anyone else, BUT you are paid an exorbitant amount of money and to complain like you are being imprisoned or oppressed is disgusting. But of course Sheffield will probably end up getting whatever he wants, because he is a professional athlete and they do not have to play by real human rules. And of course I will stew for a bit and be pissed off but then forget all about it when Chris Henry commits his first murder and I have something else to write about.
