Thought 1: What?!
Thought 2 after seeing the gap hit: wow, that's a good deal.
Thought 3: if we signed that contract would it make us better?
Thought 4: short term yes, long term no. Too old to be part of a contending team and not a role model worth the years in between.
Again, just my thoughts. Nobody can argue it's a bit of a shocker short term.
