A-Rod and the Florida Marlins
Yesterday it was reported on ESPN that Alex Rodriguez will make more money this year with the Yankees than the entire Marlins team including their disabled list. A-Rod is due to make around $28 million and the Marlin's 33 man roster is scheduled to make $21.8 million combined. Is there a need for all that moeny to go to one person? There are so many areas that could use that money, such as colleges and students to pay for college. Don't get me wrong, if I was a professional athlete and made that much I wouldn't be complaining. However, sitting here and trying to pay for college I think it's wrong that one person makes that much in one year and more than an entire team. What really gets me is that A-Rod will make more this year than I will ever make in my lifetime.
