BREAKING NEWS: GORDON & VILLANUEVA TO PISTONS





The Detroit Pistons made the biggest early splash in free agency today, agreeing to terms with Ben Gordon and Charlie Villanueva. Former Bulls guard Gordon will receive a five-year, $55 million deal, while former Bucks forward Villanueva gets a five-year deal for $40 million, sources told ESPN.com's Chris Broussard. Gordon rejected deals from Chicago in excess of $50 million each of the past two seasons. Milwaukee elected to let the 24-year-old Villanueva become an unrestricted free agent earlier this week, after the Bucks determined that matching any restricted free-agent offers would move the team closer to the luxury tax threshold and limit changing the roster. Free agents can't officially sign with new teams until July 8.

American International Group, Inc. is a holding company which, through its subsidiaries, is engaged in a range of insurance and insurance-related activities in the United States and abroad. AIG’s primary activities include both General Insurance and Life Insurance & Retirement Services operations. AIG stock isn't the greatest of shape, but it is believed that it might start trending upward. AIG stock is in a good position to start rising, as Edward Liddy is going to be departing. Liddy has thus far proclaimed that AIG, or American International Group, is in good standing as the insurance company is rumored to be able to start paying off debt from the bailout package. The company got $180 billion in cash advances from the American People, and with a loan of that amount, the company would do well to pay it off as quickly as possible. AIG stock had better rise; they'd better perform well, and had better pay back the personal loans we gave them.
