Money is a motivating factor, much more so than winning.  The fact that Ted is reaching out means he has interest in making a move, but he's smart enough not to sell out the future of the franchise for a one year shot at winning. This isn't a team that's so desperate to win that we need to throw out obscene amounts of money and over-pay for players. As Ivo correctly pointed out in a previous post, Ted looks 3-5 years down the road, while fans seem to develop tunnel vision and only look at the upcoming year ahead. We have several key pieces to our team we need to be able to extend in the coming years, and they aren't going to be cheap. I'm fine with sitting on our hands and letting a deal come to us, so to speak, rather than reaching and overpaying.</blockquote>
