I know Donald is younger than Geno, but at the end of his contract he will be 33. Geno will be 34 at the end of his. I say the Bengals got a deal.
Or the Rams aren't particularly bright.. 22.5 million per is insane, but then I remember when Catfish Hunter was the first athlete to ever be paid a million bucks . Everyone thought that was insane at the time . Seems almost quaint now. It makes me wonder who will be the first athlete to be paid a b-b-b-BILLION ... Professional athletes should be regularly kissing the ass of the statue of Marvin Miller every single day. And yet even though pro sports have all become fabulously weathy as a result of Miller's actions he's not in any HOF. He's the guy who made free agency possible.
