Please Tell Me Someone Misplaced a Comma and Added a 0

So David Beckham is ditching Real Madrid for the L.A. Galaxy. That’s be surprising and kooky in the past, but given that he’s reduced to riding the bench these days and is leaving for a third-tier league to be a “star”, okay, I can see that.

But he’s getting paid $250 million for a five year deal? Are you sure that’s not $25,000,000 for five years? Because that’d make a whole hell of a lot more sense. Is the entire freaking MLS worth $250 million?

All I know is that it’s going to take a whole lot of bending for that to be worth it, Beckham. Get to bending. Then bend some more. Bend bend bend�bend bend.
