Well, with the new discovery that my dad was, in fact, not killed in a farming accident and perfectly healthy (yet being held against his will and forced to perform manual labor), it's an easy decision for me what to spend my signing bonus on. Most of my rookie contract went to bettering my living situation and local community, and the bonus I get from S15 is going to better the life of my father. A new penthouse in downtown Pittsburgh, one in the Bay area for when I move on to San Jose, I'm taking care of the man that made sure I was born in a free country. He tells me he doesn't want much, that with reuniting with his son he has everything he needs in life. But I'm buying that man boats and hoes. Maybe not the hoes. But he once told me he had a desire to go deep sea fishing, so I think that's one of the first things we are going to do this offseason. After that, I'm taking care of his wardrobe, a couple cars, and the rest we are investing. You never know when the gravy train is going to get derailed by injury, so we have to set up a solid retirement plan for both of us.
