OK, now I officially hate Tom Glavine. We couldnt have payroll flexibility BECAUSE OF GOLF?????????

And this article also states that:

We have offered a 3 years 18 mil contract to ponson and that baltimore might make late run at him. I know that this is at least the second contract that we have offered ponson.

Isn't it great that the Mets let their player's golf outings dictate player personell decisions? No wonder the Mets don't win anything! Thanks Glavine, I hope it rains every time you and your buddy Weathers are on the golf course. Damn primadonna baseball players.

I know K Brown has a private jet for his family in his contract and PayRod has a suite for his family and an administrative office for himself written into his contracts, but when did GM decisions get written into Glavine's contract?
