"Obviously, Jimmy Rollins doesn't get it.

However, the Phillies' free-agent shortstop isn't the only pro athlete in Philadelphia who doesn't understand how good his sporting life is here.

As for Rollins, his Phillies win. He plays in a packed ballpark. Other guys want to play for his team.

Jim Thome is the latest to want to wear the red pinstripes. Free-agent Michael Cuddyer might be next.

Last year, Cliff Lee took less money to play in Philadelphia. And in recent years Roy Halladay and Roy Oswalt chose to be traded to Philly.

Indeed, the Phillies clubhouse is a cooler place to be than on the set of "Keeping Up With the Kardashians."

Still, Rollins chose to dive into the free-agent waters this week. He said it would be fun."
