Kraft is already here, has cemented his brand here and a $9million bridge isn't going to cause him to up and move.

I'm sick and tired of the lazy assclowns that live in my apartment complex getting free government money to support their drinking habit and 5 kids. We don't need successful billionaires getting hand-outs as well - especially after the state just raised the sales tax to 6.25% because the state apparently doesn't have enough tax dollars coming in.

Yes, one place where I'm far from the left is on these government handouts - be it to the welfare queens next door, or billionaires. And for the record, the one neighbor with the drinking habit is outside the complex stumbling around all the time while her kids run amok, almost getting run over.

That's the problem with apartment complexes that have "tiered pricing" - something I was unaware of when I moved in. My lease is up next month and I'm out - the retail rate for my apartment is $1250, and I found out some people are paying as little as $700 for the same 2 bed, 2 bath place.

Look at it this way---if the Feds give him a $9 million gift, he might decide to re-sign Wilfolk instead of letting him walk, they way he's let every other major free agent walk

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
