Blog Covers All Bases of Dodgers Owners' Divorce: The messy breakup of Los Angeles Dodgers owners Frank and Jamie McCourt has inspired the creation of DodgerDivorce.Com, a blog "one-stop shop for news and insight into the McCourt divorce" written by Joshua Fisher of Hardball Times. "The damage Frank's suffered due to the divorce is the unfortunate (for him) airing of the club's financial laundry," he writes. "You don't get to be the marquee team in Los Angeles and spend about the same as the Minnesota Twins."
Jamie McCourt is requesting $989,000 a month in living expenses.
Uh huh.

You gotta be kidding me?!! $989,000 for what?!! No one deserves that much money per month...no one!

Not even Frank McCourt, apparently. You definitely don't want to read about Ron Perelman and Patricia Duff's divorce then. There's not much at the Wikipedia link, but I still hold that as the gold standard of rich person divorce demands.

It's all relative. $12 million a year is one percent of the couple's net worth of $1.2 billion.

I wish I could get $12 million a year just for being in a marriage that didn't work out.

And I bet she gets the extra toppings on her pizzas, too.
