I don't believe that for a goddamn second. No one will pay him THAT much. Players are mostly paid for what they do on offense, not defense. Guys that do the dirty work like Fortson, Wallace and even Bruce Bowen usually dont get handed fat contracts.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>This whole story is bogus...you can't even offer $126 million.... :no1:</div> Yes seriously, I don't even know how this even started. You can't say ESPN radio because they broadcasted Jaleel aka Steve Urkel White died when it was known as a bogus report. But they ran it as fact. ESPN only picks up breaking news from other real reporters.
Yea I dont think he should be getting all that money its just too much. 7-11 mil is what he should be getting.
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (iversonfan268 @ Jul 1 2006, 02:40 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>You just pretty much said why they would do it. They are a very young team. All young teams need veteran leadership and he would bring a lot of that. Plus they have a horrible frontcourt still so Ben would be a huge help. Im not sure exactly how signing big ben would mess everything up for them. Still though 126 mil. is rediculous.</div>I def did not say why they would do that. Very young team who needs a big guy in side your right. But why get a 31 year old veteran, when you can maybe trade for a younger guy like O'Neal from the Pacers who is a younger veteran. Chicago has pieces they can trade so that should not be a problem.
Ben Wallace is overrated and doesnt deserve more than 8 million a year. Im almost 100 percent positive that this is bs. Plus, didnt he bulls just get Eddie Curry back in a trade?
I highley doubt that, the Bulls know they can't afford that. They are going to have to give extensions to Hinrich, Gordon, Deng, Nicionni, and Duhon soon so they know that they can't give up this much for one player. Also, is 125 million even possible, I though the max was around 110.

I heard reports of 5 years, 15 million offer by the Bulls, which is more then what Pistons offered I believe. That is not as bad as this thread has listed but still over his value.
I want a sig that has Ben Wallace in it. He would have his pinky finger up to his lips like Dr. Evil and it would say, "One hundred billion dollars!"
