We all know it’s likely our best short term strategy to win. I don’t think that’s ever been in question.  I just hope it’s not at some ridiculous long term price. We found out recently how paying exorbitant monies on 1 player can cost dearly. If that player goes down or out for any reason we’re sunk. It has clearly not worked well thus far and only created a massive Cap sinkhole. It’s gotten so bad that the only formidable answer we can come up with is stealing from cost of living increases out 4-5 years. That’s actually pretty sad.  In addition the players we attempt to retain we won’t be able to pay.. so we just assume to add all those millions onto an already sticky fiscal situation by playing the contract conversion games, because that’s what they are.The only deal that is a good deal is one that is financially good for both parties.  We have to be fully prepared to walk away from ridiculousness.</blockquote>
