At age nine, I got a paper route. Sixty-six papers had to be delivered to sixty-six families every day. I also had to collect thirty cents a week from each customer.

If you want to get a deal, negotiate with the teams yourself. Say, I want this much, and no less, but I'll show up to camp on time. It doesn't seem that hard to me.
