I wonder what the story on this event is and what lead up to it. Always makes me lol. Classic.

Isn't that a rotoscope of Michael Bolton from Office Space?

That looks like a clipart version of Michael from office space but beating up a deceased horse instead of the fax machine, just mirrored:

Fletcher cleared a 2nd+3rd+4th to spend 5M on Deangelo.

I'm not sure if that 5M alone would make the difference, but you could always end up doing what CBJ did by selling Bjorkstrand for ten cents on the dollar

For what it's worth it's a health thing with his eyes and lighting set up in the studio.

The 8th year isn’t critical to the comparison until you know what his next contract is.

It ain't gonna start with a 9 though unless he really falls off a cliff.

Exactly, but why waste energy worrying about what number between league minimum and $10.5M that 8th year turns out to be. It’s still a small percentage of career earnings.

Ah, ok, I am just a dick then.

Wonder if JG is truly happy with his decision.

No doubt he was in a kind of shock the way it all went down. You could tell from his first media appearance.
