    From Ch. 5 tonight, notice what he got as partial compensation:

    WESTFORD, Mass. -- A Massachusetts-based company has signed a new four-year endorsement deal with Johnny Damon, even though the centerfielder recently bolted the Red Sox for the arch rival Yankees.

    Westford-based PUMA North America says Damon will continue to wear PUMA baseball cleats on the field and make other pitches on behalf of the brand.

    To celebrate the extension of the partnership, the company planned Wednesday to present Damon with the gift of a new Ferrari.

    Damon signed a four-year, $52 million contract with the Yankees in December.

    More like FoLI probably. He is a Yankee now after all. Good riddance too IMHO.

    From the pics, it looked like it might be the FNA shop on Park Ave where he picked it up - not a dealership, but I'm sure fine for the odd bit of promotion.

    Life is unfair sometimes. Here's a guy that makes over $10 million a year playing a children's game and they GIVE him a Ferrari for it too. The rest of us have to BUY ours.

    I know he had a 911 Turbo Cab, so I hope he would know what a 430 was...
