This is BS. $4 million? The Cubs have paid Kerry Wood will over $40 million over the past 8 years and his broke-ass arm still doesn't work.

BS? Not really. Much of the work in this field is being funded by DoD & the VA, for obvious reasons  .

No, it's BS that her arm was rebuilt for 1/10th of what Kerry Wood's non-functioning arm has been paid.

In that case I agree. Since I don't follow sports, I didn't know who KW was. It is beyond imagination that any sports player is worth that kind of money.

BTW Chairman,
You play NHL on PC or game console? I have the PC and would be happy to throw biscuits in the back of your net (insert bad double entendres here!)

Console, I gave up trying to keep my PC in game-playing trim years ago. Consoles are so much easier on the hardware budget, plus I know how to slice them...
