Holliday is about to make 25-30 mil/year for doing absolutely nothing for this city.

14 ppg 6 ast and about 50 games if we are lucky and we complain about Drew's salary, come on man!

In all fairness, you're comparing apples to oranges.

Warren Buffett made 13.5 BILLION in 2014. That's about 37 million PER day.

HE did nothing for New Orleans that year.

But Holliday and Buffett do have a very important thing in common.

NEITHER OF THEM ARE NEW ORLEANS SAINTS!!



tl;dr - Your comparison is pointless given that it compares the salary of two players in different sports, but who are also not nearly equivalent in their respective sport, or even their own team. I merely took the pointlessness to an absurd length to demonstrate the concept.

Asik makes more than 3/4 of the saints team. What's your point? God this place is insufferable sometimes.

Oranges make better juice than apples. Apple juice is still quality juice though. There isn't much of a market for watermelon juice though. I suppose that a watermelon is its own juice and fruit in one. Man, that's wild.

The difference is, I can drink apple juice after brushing my teeth.

If I drink orange juice after brushing my teeth, I puke.
