Exactly. If he really ends up being dominant still after another big 5 year deal then sign another deal after that and say "I told ya so." Don't handcuff a team you want to win with though with 10 years for the kind of money he wants. He has to understand that isn't good business for any team... which is why I find him to be just another me first guy.
Yes I understand you want to get all you can... and he will... it would just be nice to see someone use some logic once in a sports contract negotiation. OK I admit that last sentence is funny.
