Yeah. I truly think you’re right on that. Add in some Rogers Canadian tax and I could see it being more. It’s crazy to complain about not going for a high end player but I am given the teams circumstances. They’ll shoot for the moon here but they’d be better off getting two $25M guys for a shorter duration. Just my thought.
