I'm not even saying that this was necessarily a bad move in an of itself, merely that I was surprised by it and that I hope that it doesn't signal a change in the approach that has been working so well. However, comments like yours are troubling and all too common unfortunately.

You think it's troubling to be less than concerned about a 2 year deal that, even if fully guaranteed (it's not), means the difference between $120 million and $130 million in cap space in 2020? And that would be off the books after 2020? That seems a bit alarmist to me.
