damn!

megatron deserves some sort of high-eight, low-nine figure deal.too bad he won't see it all. you know how selfish football teams are. they'll cut him year seven or eight of that deal,but how many teams have won a super bowl with a 100 million dollar player???? the lions team value is only 780 mil and this isnt basketball its football.
