I think I recognize that vehicle, it was the same one driving Haire around Stark Vegas a month ago, be careful Bert Stare, with all that money we are paying Parker, I hope you get a nice tip* LOL

I don't think the salary (400k vs 600k etc) is what anyone is worried about, were worried about that "multi year fully guaranteed contract" we were rumored to be offering.
Overpaying for a good PC is fine. Getting stuck with 1.2m in buyout for said PC gets problematic: say lemonis sucks again and we want to fire him. We now have to pay a huge buyout for a PC, OR force a new HC to keep Parker (a huge turnoff as most HCs want their guys) OR keep Lemo another year. It just complicates things next year when the inevitable needs to happen.
BUT, I LOVE the hire. He's the best PC we could get in the situation.
Now it's time to HIT THE PORTAL! A lot of ground to make up on our opponents and its realistically not all going to happen with player development alone.
I must say this was some of the best back and forth discussion I've seen on the board in a while. No arguing or name-calling; just good old fashioned debate and conversation that ended in positive results. Welcome to State, Justin Parker!
