[RipCity32]

Mother fucking paid.  

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

25 mill a year.

 

[elcheato]

Obviously the largest deal in history, but has there ever been a contract this long? 

 

[Teagz]

Well Magic Johnson signed like a 25 year deal but I think this is the longest for baseball.

 

[elcheato]

If only he didn't rawdog it. 

 

[Thomas-Panda-Saxby]

Largest is 10 years I believe.

Pujols almost got 11 from the Marlins.

 

[Sportsguy9695]

[RipCity32]

Magic signed a 25 year deal, at 1 million a year. Never knew that until teag said it lol. That's kind of crazy.

So would this means that the Marlins would have to raise ticket prices? lol.

 

[Pugz]

man that's huge

 

[Giantmetfan07]

Did they give him the ntc? I was reading they might actually give him the clause to get a deal done but I doubt it.

Giancarlo Stanton is rich. You and I are not.

Perhaps this explains why we werent slamming $20,000 champagne and presumably playing high-stakes ostrich polo with Stanton inside a Miami nightclub this week.

TMZ reports that the Miami Marlins outfielder celebrated his new, $325 million contract at Miamis Delano Hotel Monday night. He schmoozed, took pictures with fans and uncorked a bottle of champagne worth roughly the tag price of a Dodge Dart.

Stanton cracked the top on a $20,000 bottle of Moet Nectar Imperial Rose Methuselah Leopard Luxury Editiona rare, six-liter bottle wrapped in 22-carat gold leaf. It cures shingles...or just tastes really good.

TMZs report alleges that Stanton was out until 3 a.m. Tuesday morning in the company of a well-known Miami party queen named Julz. This woman supposedly purchased him the bottle of high-quality leopard wine.

So no, the new owner of the most lucrative sports contract in American history did not pick up the check. Hell have the rest of his natural life to bear that cross. Well give him his final freebie.
