AND, another crazy thing. I went to see what he'd actually want for an extension since he came to me and said he'd like to stay in NY. The jokester wants 9 YEARS, $21 MILLION PER YEAR!!!

That's crazy. Anyway to get guys to make more realistic offers?
Yeah, negotiate with him. Give him a low-ball counter offer. See how he reacts. A lot of times, the players will come way down from their initial offer.
