the worst bust in the history of all sports. Anyone agree? The Colorado Rockies gave Hampton, a starting pitcher, an 8 year - 121 million dollar contract good from 2001-2008. He wound up only pitching 2 years in Colorado and 3 years in Atlanta, and has been under contract, but hurt, the past 2 years with Atlanta, and the Braves have him for next season also. He made slightly over 15 million per season, and in the 7 years since he signed that contract, Hampton's record is, 53 wins and 48 losses, WOW, that is an average of 7.5 wins per season, at 15 million per, so slightly over 2 million per win. WHAT A FREAKING BUST, you agree?
