"Factoring for inflation, Jordan's $33 million contract would be worth roughly $49 million in today's dollars."

:shock:

As it is in the high 40's right now, I assume some bids will come in at the end and go over 50K.

if I had FU money, i would buy it in a second!

I'm surprised the Harry Carey Chicago sports museum @ the water tower or whatever it's called won't buy this.

Matters who I am FUing.

Dont have $50K to drop on a piece of paper....."plus then I have to get it matted and framed, which then costs money...and I take all the risks...and then it will probably sit around here until some guy walks in and offers me $100"......I will offer you $50

I don't know why, but I hope Krause buys it.

Agree. Plus all of today's players make way more than they did back then even after factoring inflation.

He'd have made at least $70M now, comparably.

Yeah I can remember it being huge news when Jon Koncak signed his 6 year, 13 million dollar contract. Also, Sportscenter flipped out when Hot Rod Williams signed for around 5 or 6 a year. Then Jim Mcllvaine came along and we all realized front offices just can't help themselves.
