The tough decisions of Andy Pettitte

Dear Shelly Anderson: Andy Pettitte made $46M during his years with the Yankees. For a little context, at $40K per year, your average Methuselah would need 1150 years to make $46M. It's hard to argue that it requires much heroism to put home before money when you already have more money than most people could spend in a lifetime. Andy Pettitte is a great guy and we wish him well, but let's not lose ourselves in some fantasy about the sacrifice he made to play for the team of his choice.
