Alaska

How much did Alaska cost in today's money? The treaty — setting the price at $7.2 million, or about $125 million today — was negotiated and signed by Eduard de Stoeckl, Russia's minister to the United States, and William H. Seward, the American secretary of state.





Kemba Walker has agreed to sign a four-year, $141 million deal with the Celtics





Aingey-Boy's folly.

Maybe Boston should donate Kemba to Alaska. He'd be the richest man there.

Return to Boston Celtics
