Even though I think Smoltz probably COULD come back, I don't know why he feels the need to. He's 43. He's got to have a $50 million net worth, maybe even twice that. At what point do you decide it's time to leave the grind and let yourself enjoy it?

Same could be said of Favre. He would certainly be the Poster child behind the second question above..

Probably for most of us, it's 99% about the $$$. For guys like Smoltz and Favre it's 99% about the adrenalin.

Baseball factoid. 75% of retired MLB players get divorced.
