[QUOTE="AutoPoster 3000, post: 1173105, member: 17214"] I'm not sure it looks any better for these people if it was a mistake. Does anyone have any clue what anyone else is doing over there? Do they communicate at all? How does the message get so garbled? I mean, we're either writing up contracts without knowing what terms have already been agreed to, or we're handing over contracts to sign without knowing what's in them, or both. This is basic stuff, and it borders on professional malpractice to get it wrong. In a contract dispute, the courts would hold a guy who sublet a basement apartment to his second cousin to a higher standard than this. Moreover, the terms of the second year buyout is [I]the only thing that really matters in the whole contract[/I]. That's what gives the new AD the window to painlessly change course following the 2016 season, which was ostensibly the only reason we embarked on this whole fiasco. If two years of guaranteed money is what we verbally agreed to, we might as well have written the whole thing up on the back of a cocktail napkin. The crux would be Cubit gets all his contract money no matter what. So what would there be to really argue about. How is that not the one thing about which everybody involved isn't 100% all on the same page? [/QUOTE]
