What $4 million can buy...


LaVar Arrington, a probowl linebacker for the Washington Redskins, gave up a $4 million roster bonus to become a free agent. Needless to say, he was unhappy playing in our nation's capital. Fox Sports recently posted a list of what LaVar could've spent his bonus on. Here are a few examples:

Vacations: Flying out of Washington, DC and spending rather generously on accommodations, Arrington could've taken 1,142 different two-week vacations to Paris. That means Arrington could've spent 44 years of his entire life on vacation to Paris.

Music: Arrington could've bought 210,748 copies of Journey's Greatest Hits. That would make the album Platinum immediately in Germany, had he decided to buy them there.

Gum: Arrington could've bought himself 3,100,775 packs of gum.

Cable TV: If Arrington is a wrestling fan, he could've ordered every single WWE pay-per-view until February of the year 11214. By then, I'm certain that WWE owner Vincent K. McMahon CXXI would appreciate the 9,235-year old Arrington's die-hard viewership.

I'm assuming you photoshopped that pic - or was that pasted from another site? either way it's hilarious
