Message: <blockquote data-quote="net" data-source="post: 130608" data-attributes="member: 200">Florio at ProFootballTalk said his inside guy at the Cardinals said Sherman was OFFICIALLY offered the job at Arizona. Then bass-ackwards, the Bidwell idiots began to talk money. Rather than ask the agent/candidate BEFORE what the asking price is(as all other teams do) the ever-competent Bidwells bring Sherman in TWICE, then ask him to negotiate.That pattern happens in small business where employees are making less money. In big money pro sports, the agents are asked BEFORE, so the team knows if they want to bite or not.So after two interviews, the Bidwells find out Sherman wanted $4 mill a year. GULP! Whisenhunt would work for $2.5....so TA-DA! the cheap guy gets the job. Sherman blew it here. He should have asked for what he was making at Green Bay....$3.2 mill. He could justify that.The Bidwells are to the NFL what Jed Clampett was to the oil industry.</blockquote>
