You missed the part where he laughs at his own jokes at least 20 times during the negotiation.TiTAN said:Player: $8 Million a year?
Pettine: Uh... let me call in an expert to verify you are in fact legit, and not a freud.
Player: Yeah, sure.
Pettine: Is this guy legit?
Expert: He appears to be. He's black, 6'2, 220 pounds... and he looks fast as shit. All checks out.
Pettine: Okay, now the big question: what's his value?
Expert: In a primary market I'd say $8 million (**player has huge cheesy smile on his face**), but he's got some wear and tear on him. In this market? About $5 million a year.
Pettine: Alright, thanks (expert name). So, what are you asking?
Player: $5 million a year..?
Pettine: I can do $4 dollars.. You heard him. You've got some wear and tear, and let's face it, I may need to trade you in the future, and I'm not sure what the market will be. I may be stuck with youin my shopon my roster for a year or two.
Player: Meet me half way: $2.5 million?
Pettine: $10, and that is ALL I can go.
Player:...Okay.. how about $25?
Pettine: $10.
Player: Okay... deal. **Shakes hands**

Player Interview later: Yeah I took a bit less that I wanted to going in, but I got the cash I need, and I'm always happy toget ripped offget anally raped. It's part of the business.
