His base salaries next three seasons are $11.6 million.

there is only 5.2 mil left of his signing bonus on the cap. they spread it over the first 6 of the 8 years
the addional guaranteed money spread across is the 1.2 spread over 5 years from the 2011 restructure. and the 2.6 spread over 4 years from the 2012 restructure.

im not sure that the original signing bonus and the restructure guarantees are treated the same... and im not sure that it all has to be taken in 1 year. i'll look into that.

interesting that you weren't singing the "cap hit" tune over the last month as you insisted that Ben was a goner

Didn't think it was that high.

If it's closer to what you think, I'd say he's no doubt gone.

Art doesn't value, or appreciate Ben. The facts speak for themselves.

I can't believe this talk has carried over into another thread.

we have to get crash back to his normal self... he was wavering from his position (Ben is gone). had to get him back on track, who else would we ridicule?
