I know Steve-O is a Tigers fan, so this initially is quite exciting, but Jesus.
That's a TON of money for anyone. Let alone a guy that's very heavy that may have trouble aging. And 9 years, obviously, is a VERY long commitment.
Prince will be signed WELL into his 30's. For the record, his dad was out of baseball after a horrible season when he was 34, and was never really the same after he was 27.
Still, Prince is his own man, so it'll be interesting to see how he does. Can't beat nature, though.
Another interesting fact is that Prince is apparently signing where his estranged father made the majority of his fame. Have to wonder if this is a step towards reconciliation, or if this is again him trying to one-up his dad. Or maybe he's just signing for a boatload of cash that nobody else would possibly offer (Occam's Razor).
In any case, I can honestly say that I am very, very surprised that Prince got THIS much money. This really isn't that far off at all from what Pujols got and I remmeber thinking that there was no way he would get anywhere close to that money.
