Dribble by Chuck Ferris

After he broke the record for most home runs, but not until after, the San Francisco Giants decided they didn't want to pay his $15,000,000 salary next year.

They decided not to give him a new contract.  Can you say he was "fired" if he served out his current contract and was not renewed for another year?

Anyway, I'm going to pass the hat at the old folks home and take up a collection for the unemployed Bonds.

      There's a nasty rumor floating around here. Someone said that the White Sox might pick him up. You know how much I love this character? My Sox pick him up and I'm converting to a Cubs fan. Now that's fighting words here in Chicaqo.

  At the kind of money he has already made playing ball he shouldn't need any kind of help. That is if he saved any of it. Helen
