joe, what about entering into a contract in bad faith, i.e. AH entered into 7 yr contract with the intention of only honoring the first 15 months.
i figured these contracts are iron clad to exclude some of the more traditional types of breaches and remedies but, if the skins can prove via emails, TC btw AH and his agent that he only entered into the K to receive the majority lump sum of the 38 or so mil in the first 15 months then he would act in detrimental manner to force the skins to trade/release him.
its a big if.
i still firmly believe AH and his agent only entered into a K with the skins because they couldnt resist the chance to collect 38 mil for 15 months, then force his way to a trade or release so he could sign a new major contract with a new team. I think any team who was interested in AH this offseason quickly lost interest when they learned that they would have to sign AH to a new K. of course, what has been reported in the media is that any new team for AH would have to repay the skins approx 18 mil.
