Can you spare a few bucks to help out A-ROD?  He needs the money now that he's taking a pay cut to go back to work for Steinbrenner for a lousy $275mil.  If he would have kept his mouth shut and just played baseball, the Yanks would have signed him for $300million.  But OH NO! he had to listen to his genius agent, Boras, who told him to play hard-to-get.  Now the $20 million the Yankees were supposed to get from the Texas Rangers as part of A-ROD's original deal has to come out of A-ROD's end.

Not only that, but as part of the new contract A-ROD has to participate in a special ceremony on the pitcher's mound at Yankee Stadium next year.  According to the agreement A-ROD will say "Forgive me, boss, for I have sinned," and will plant a big smootcheroo on Steinbrenner's patriarchical posterior as thousands of fans cheer.

A-ROD may soon be joined at the Millionaires' Soup Kitchen by Knicks' super foul-up, Stephon Marbury.  Whereas A-ROD plays like a professional athlete and had a legitimate contract issue, Marbury, with his sneakers and his ho's and his personality issues, behaves as though playing basketball is the last thing on his mind.  With all his flying around on airplanes, leaving the team, joining the team etc., the odds are that he's going to eventually run into his spiritual godfather, OJ, who is also a frequent flier, and who will give him some tips on how to become a major league idiot.

Marbury's stupid, all right.  He's squandering all the gifts God gave him.  It's only a matter of time before he ends up in the Foul-Ups Hall of Fame with Rodman and Tyson, wrestling a tag-team of pygmy dwarfs in a Slobovian circus ring, and he will have ample time to reflect at his leisure how he should have kept his mouth shut and just took the money.

Even James Dolan, who has got to be one of the biggest morons who ever existed, who is not even capable of managing a hot dog stand or feeding fish to the seals in the Central Park Zoo, is eventually going to figure out that Marbury is doing the Knicks more harm than good and is then going to shovel him into the rubbish bin along with Isiah Thomas.
