What would you do with $700 billion

Sept. 25, 2008  

So Blast has a question for today and we thought we’d post it here. We all know the government proposed a $700 billion buyout for Wall St., but what would you do with $700 billion in the sports world? Here’s what I think some of our readers would do with it:

Pavlovic: Spend it all on Yankees t-shirts and life vests, not knowing that he could have just bought the team and a night out with Derek Jeter. He could have overspent even more for marginal players.

Neetzi: Wedding ring with Shane Victorino’s face on it. His real face. We said billion not million.

Perry: He would buy out Early Times whiskey and be set for Eagles tailgates for life.

Chad: Use the money to campaign Congress heavily to legalize marijuana.

IceYde: Would use it to buy a house where Bastian Schweinsteiger and his entire family could all live together. Schweinsteiger’s family, not IceYde’s. It’s expensive to fly them all in. He would buy Bayern-Munich with the leftover money.

Bohn: Would donate it all to NC State athletics and they would still be mediocre.

So tell us: What would Andy Reid spend it on? Steinbrenner? (give it all to A Rod?) Belichick (better video cameras?)?

    Travis Barker and DJ AM would use the money to purchase a new jet.

  2. Actually, NC State wouldn’t need the money.

    *Little known fact alert*
    NC State’s booster club, the Wolfpack Club, brings in more money than most of the top 10 football programs in the country, including Ohio State. Return on that investment? A really, really nice stadium to sit in while the Pack get it handed to them.

  3. I would buy lottery tickets with all of it. That way, I know I would hit the $85mil Powerball and be set for life!!

    Wait, that sounds like a similar return on investment to the Wolfpack Clubs?

    Actually…I would just build a huge underground grow room?

  6. Perry says:

    IceyDe, why don’t you just buy your own casino and bring the cards and hoes up to your owner’s suite?

    It is $700 billion after all. You get get the best hookers available. Because you could turn ordinary girls into hookers. Everyone has their price.

    “Snort that line off my johnson.”

    “Well I don’t really do that…”

    “How about for a billion dollars?”

    “SSnnnnnnnnuuuuck!!”
