Responses:

One (hyphenated) word: double-dipping. - David Jul 15, 06:49 7
- I don't get this. You're guaranteeing money in a contract. Short of him being unable to fulfill his contract via his choice (retirement / jail) - Will Hunting Jul 15, 06:55 4
  - Double-dipping occurs when a high first round pick busts out for one team then plays for another. - David Jul 15, 06:57 3
    - Again, if 6mil is guaranteed, pay me 6mil. Otherwise, don't call it guaranteed. - Will Hunting Jul 15, 07:03 2
      - Well, it's guaranteed by someone. Basically, they'll pay you $6m unless someone else is paying you and it gets deducted. - spamlet Jul 15, 07:34
      - That's actually a good point. The word "guaranteed" is problematic in this usage. -- nm - David Jul 15, 07:21
- I can't see how the Titans don't blink first -- nm - Beaker Jul 15, 06:53 1
  - They never have before. -- nm - David Jul 15, 06:55
