I'd be surprised if collusion wasn't happening.

There were several agents complaining last year that their clients received identical, not similar, identical offers from multiple teams.

I'm not opposed to the superstars making huge money since they sell the tickets. I see a problem when proven mediocrity like Jeff Reboulet gets a 3 year big money deal. That is positively assinine.
