The phrase "Gift from the gods" often flits through my mind in these instances. The gift of playing the game of baseball, itself a thing of immense beauty and pleasure, so well as to be rewarded with $182 million over 11 years, and the dumbass cannot keep it in his pants or his hands away from guns.

As for the mother, I am of two minds. What kind of mother would consent to this? But, on the other hand, I am not dirt poor, starving, and faced with this dirtbag with a bundle of cash in his hand.
