btw, (tangent) i do believe that those option bonuses (like the 20+mill one haynesworth has) are truly guaranteed... if he starts up a dog fighting ring and smoking crack, the skins can't go back and try to recoup any of that money (whereas the non-option vick money was sued for by the falcons after his indiscretions came to light).

as far as what this means for us... almost nothing, since i don't think that's standard practice in skinsland. It's an interesting concept, but i don't know why it wouldn't be considered as a likely-to-be-earned/not-likely-to-be-earned bonus, since that's essentially what it is.
