im not worried about AH leaving after the first day. i thought his impact on games when he was in there was something we havent had in a long time at the DT spot. i got an AH jersey, etc so im a fan of the man...

but this 22 milion dollar signing bonus due to him in 2 weeks really has me interested, has me interested since teh day it was announced. ive never heard anything like this. i understand it was done to greatly lessen the cap ramifications of his contract but . .

i am worried that the skins may have set themselves up to be played by AH and his agent. after the bulk of this guaranteed money is given in 2 weeks, what is going to happen? what is going to happen after this season? what if this season is a losing one and AH doesnt like the 3-4?

AH holds all the cards and leverage.

A one time payment of a 22 million dollar signing bonus is unprecendented in this league.

AH, while a great player, seems to be your protypical modern athlete.

= potential big problems.

this is much to do about nothing right now, but it could be the beginning of the end.

with all that said, its just a week of voluntary work outs. for the moment.
