Extension AI revamp -

It used to be that signing extensions was way too easy and made free agency less meaningful. Now it is extremely difficult and perhaps over-emphasising free agency.

It would be nice if the AI was made smarter and actually negotiated or tried to reach a some sort of concensus by actually giving out financial information.

Limiting the number of attempts to re-sign a player is silly. Instead, based on player personality, their demands should be within a % of their desired amount and then as a final situation. If a team owner isn't coming close, then the player should issue a a "i will take this at this many years, final offer". This way the owner has an opportunity to make a final decision.

Additinally, if a player does not want to re-sign, he should simply state it a la regular free agency where players tell us they are not interested in our organization.

Thanks for listening to my rant
