Already done.

This is my favorite week of the year. Love every minute of it.

I root for Phil also but, have become a huge Dustin Johnson fan.

agreed on Boom-Boom. I believe Bubby Watson could tear Augusta apart if he could putt. With his length and the way he can shape shots.....unbelievable.

IDk if Bubba has the short game for Augusta... we'll see I guess. There are places at Augusta that you just cannot hit the ball, and you're right, if your putter is off, hang it up.

I just wanna see some more of this...

I'm so stoked about this new ticket deal. I've been to the tournament 6 times, it's the greatest golf tournament anywhere.

What's the best way to get tickets?

This year? You gotta know somebody or have some serious funds.

Next year, that lottery, which they've never done before for tourney tix.

Everytime I've gone it was because an old friend of my dad's gave him his badges... that guy passed in 2006 and his wife gave them to my dad thru 2009, but now she's in a home and doesn't get them anymore.

      I don't think it's any weird or unique clause, it's the offset language, same thing so many contract disputes are over. It just means that including it, if a player is cut and then signed by another team, the original team would be able to subtract how much they're getting paid by the new team from what they still owe him on their guaranteed money. For example, it's why Russell Wilson signed for the minimum last year with the Steelers as that was included in his Denver contract.  So if he signed with the Steelers for $1 million, he'd get $1 million less from the Broncos, if it was $2 million, he'd get $2 million less, basically he couldn't make any more money than he was already going to make, so you sign for the minimum to not take unnecessary cap room from your new team while giving extra cap room to your old one. The problem with trying to include it in rookie deals is that a team trying to include it, it says they think they don't really believe the player will make it 4 years with the team before they cut them.  And this usually comes up with one or two rookies in most seasons, the difference is it's usually handled much more quietly and not as public and ugly as this one. The other difference is that it's happening with the Bengals, which I believe I saw are one of the few (or only?) team that doesn't have protections for rookies in rookie and mini camps to be able to participate even if they haven't signed their contract yet.  The other teams have injury protections that allow them to still play, but the Bengals do not, which is also why this one is so public and ugly, as most the time this happens, the rookie is still participating in the rookie and subsequent mini camps, giving them more time to get the contract done before training camp when they'd then hold out.
