How could anyone not understand that the offer was incredibly insulting? Its not the 5 mill outside of the fact that he got his team into the playoffs and now has to take a paycut. Its more the of the fact that it was an incentivized contract for only 1 season. Do you realize what that can do in a clubhouse? Who can do a job effectively knowing that the hook is always there?
