It wasn't a roster bonus..it was signing bonus. A signing that included at least trying to play football for Winnipeg this year. They released other players to make room for him...maybe those guys should go after Durant? This bonus also counts against their salary cap as little as it is in the grand scheme.
What am I blindly hating?
People taking money they have not earned? OK...guilty as charged.
This sets a very very bad precedent in a league that simply cant afford this kind of stuff.
But sure, Im out to lunch.
