clemens donated the car to charity after 911 when he was with the Yankees
some rich punk bought it at the charity auction with about 34000 miles on it
he drove it around for a few and then it was auctioned with Barrett-Jackson and the new jersey couple bought it

the NJ guy is a collector and he spent some serious money on it maintenance wise(about 6 grand)
the NJ guy is 65 and has a bunch of toys and was getting another one
his wife said something has to go

Yanks are that desperate. They must have given him a ton of money.

4.5 million per month... what a steal

4.5 million per month... what a steal

I think it's 1.5 million per month
28 million on a 4 year contract
with this year prorated

28 million on a 4 year contract with this year prorated

It's a $28 Million one year deal....$18.5 Million guaranteed

Clemens will earn about $18.5 million under the deal, which will cost the Yankees approximately $7.4 million in additional luxury tax, meaning they are investing about $26 million in a seven-time Cy Young Award winner who will turn 45 in August

Wow - Now it'll be even funnier when they choke. Steinbrenner just never learns that you can buy players, but you can't buy pennants.

No its a one year deal. And if you do the math, he'll make over $10,000 per pitch if he throws 100 pitches per game. More if he throws less.

How ya like them apples New York.
