Right.
But we also aren’t operating in that universe.
Let’s presume he had 4/80 on the table and took the 4/120.
You’re (unfortunately) right that I haven’t ever had the opportunity to turn down 40 million. But I’ve also never had the opportunity to lock in 80 million and set myself up forever. And while setting myself up forever I get to continue to to play with the best that ever played and one of the best coaches ever.
Instead of taking 50% more to play with god ****ing Tua, in a shithole that recently got accused of Actively throwing games and let’s be real here, has no shot at winning.
I’ve never had to make the call. And I can’t pretend to enter that headspace. It’s just a different world than I’ve ever been in.
But from my podunk shitheel life that is most certainly not set, I’d have to give it some real thought.
