With that limited skull of yours, you have somehow concluded that because the kid gave a baseball back that potentially could have been worth 500K---that is somehow the worst ethical decision in the history of mankind?
I will go slowly for you. The ONLY one potentially harmed in this kid's decision is him and his immediate family. A genocidal madman---say, Adolf Hitler-----murdered millions of people----because of their faith. His decision cost the lives of millions of people, and yet---you somehow think a kid who gave up millions of dollars for his family is somehow more ethically challenged.
I have a question for you Sherlock.
Do tell, Pat Tillman walked away from a million dollar NFL career to be killed in Afghanistan.....where does his decision rank?
How about Len Bias? He o'd without ever making a single dime of NBA money---we are talking millions upon millions----and his family never saw a dime of it----
Or, Brian Taylor. The Yankees #1 draft pick in the 1990's who blew out his arm in a bar fight and never got to see a dime.
Or how about Ricky Williams? He lost 4 million in NFL salary alone because of his enjoyment of weed.
The list goes on and on------and yet you single out this kid.
I can't wait for your well thought-out response.
By the way. I do want to offer congrats to you. You have posted the dumbest thread in the history of SBR, and, that took an awful lot of skill considering the morons who have graced us.
