While I'm unlikely to credit Steve Simmons of all people with a great deal of insight, this is still a pretty good contract for all sides....at the moment.
And I dont believe a word of what Treliving says. He was handing out term like candy less than a couple years ago.
I do still think Matthews is going to slam the hammer down after this one.
Again, I love this contract from both sides, but I'm pretty unequivocal that its because Matthews and his agent know what they want, have a plan, thought it out and then just slid it under Treliving's nose and told him to shut up and sign it.
