Then let's do $48 over 6, done deal!
Just want to get the contract done.

If he wants $8M the term will be 6 years and if he wants max term, then it would be $6M. So:


$8M x 6 or

$6M x 8

You just offered him the same over 6 or 8 years, lol.

For cap reasons, 6x$8MM works a lot better for the Flames obviously. I think this is where the deal is grinding. It’s a case of Flames will give 8 years but it’s not 8x$8MM it’s some other number but that number is also not $6MM.

It’s more like 6 x $8mm may be the ask but hey we need to add more years and bring the cap down. How about $54mm over 8 years? Agent - Well, no we’d like $64mm over 8 years. BT well that is no help and unrealistic… We need to find middle ground over 8 years for our cap to work next year…

I want to get a super flat flat flat flat mega flat flattest of flats black matte wrap done, but yeah... I think my best chance is going to be to learn how to do it myself.

Edit: Also I just realized that "flat black matte wrap" reminds me a bit of the "Bob Loblaw Law Blog."

I'm sorry, but trucks have gotten ridiculous - that grill almost comes up to his shoulder

Hey man a guy has to take home his groceries in a vehicle that could tow a house, it’s just what makes us men! Lol

Seriously though it irks me to no end when a Truck isn’t used for what it was designed for, if you’re not hauling with it daily if not weekly I don’t see the practicality in owning and driving around in a beast like that. Plus gas on that thing would be devastating lol (though I live in Vancouver so I’m basing it on that)

Gas in Alberta isn't that much cheaper.

I drive a small SUV because I'm tall and need the extra headroom, but you'd have to pay me a hell of a lot of money to get me to drive a truck like Weegar's.

On the rare occasions when I need to haul something, that's what U-Haul is for. I may not be a Real Man™, but I do know how to make a phone call.

(Apparently some people have forgotten that phones do that, but that is a separate rant.)

Trucks are obnoxious af these days.

If you drive one like that, just know that's likely how you are perceived on the road.

If it's black and tinted I just expect those drivers to be aggressive psychopaths or the jeepers creepers guy.

Or the driver from "Duel".

50-60 cents per litre cheaper is pretty good if you ask me.

Well, I know exactly what we need to get it back on track: Jankowski talk!
