I've tried everything to teach our dog to speak. Just a little bark is all I ask for but all she does is make whiny sounds.

She knows how to do all the normal things they should know like sit, stay, come, & shake. She also knows how to give a high five, roll over, she goes to her crate on command and when we point our finger at her and say "Bang!" She falls over and plays dead.

She's great at barking. She barks all the damn time. The main thing I want her to do is to bark and stop barking on command.

Any suggestions?

I'm confused. So the dog can't bark or she is great at barking?

If I made that confusing, I'm sorry. Yes she can bark. I want her to bark and stop barking on command.

A problem we have is she barks a lot when we let her out. I don't mind a little barking but I think it annoys the neighbors. She's usually let out for about 5 minutes at a time so she doesn't do it for long but it still bothers me.

I'd recommend one of those electric bark stop collars to get her to stop barking on demand...some will say they are cruel, but you don't need to zap the poo out of her with it...just a gentle little warning and she'll learn quick. Borrow one from someone if you can...they'll learn it real quick.

to make her bark on demand is a whole different story...just practice, practice and then practice. Make sure to reward her everytime.

To be honest, I don't think it bothers my neighbors as much as it bothers me. They are usually pretty good about telling us stuff.

Like I said she's only outside for about 5 minutes at a time. She's a drama queen & doesn't like to be too hot or too cold so she prefers being inside.

I just wish she weren't so stubborn.

      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.
