Your right in that in OOTP the owner does not know how much the player is asking for. And that IMO is the problem.

You provided a reasonable scenario that could explaining how a penny pinching owner would not care about money since he wants that guy wearing his teams hat in the hall. Quite understandable. However, I can't come up with any scenario where an owner would have no idea what a player is asking for in a contract and that is what is currently asked of me.

This disconnect between owners and Manager/GM's existed for every version before but did not have the consequences attached to it now with Owner Goals, especially if I chose to play without can't be fired.
