I feel weird in saying this about any NFL owner, but they're not buying Lincoln out of USC; the later has as much - or more - money when you start collectively considering the wealth of the various big time boosters. I'm a USC hater (on principle) and even I recognize this. Edited January 9, 2023 by Dr LBC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USC just gave him $110M, I'm assuming the buyout is an insane figure and the Cardinals would also have to give him the biggest contract in the NFL to make it appealing for him financially. I can't imagine that Kyler's immediate future being murky due to injury making the job anymore appealing for him either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, my point was the contract Riley just got from SC and the buyout that would have to happen basically makes that whole scenario a non-starter from the get.

I read there’s like $900m worth of active fired coaches getting paid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read there’s like $900m worth of active fired coaches getting paid. Well, part of that is the fact that, as few fans tend to either know or account for, that when an amount in a contract is guaranteed, the translation of that is that the sums is held in an escrow account (electronically, yes, but it still has to be backed by good-faith monies - i.e. the contractor cannot overcommit assets beyond what they actually have in terms of liquidity and valued-assets) and disbursed according to the prescribed payment schedule. So when a coach is fired and the remaining contract years accelerate and compound, but the payment schedule remains the same and really, for accounting purposes, the money changes are no different - unless the coach is fired for cause (at which point the team could seek to reclaim or reclassify some-but-not-all of the amount accounted for in escrow).

Screw that, with the money he's got he'll be out for revenge on Kyler. When Robert Kotick, pressured by him getting yet another sexual harassment suit filed against him, liquidates a bunch of his Activision stock to Kliff... well, let's just say that I hope you enjoy the latest COD release, Kyler, because Kliff will make sure it's the last one you ever get.😈 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
