He's coming off an Achilles injury so I think people are overreacting a bit - that's a hell of a thing to recover from at all let alone in terms of getting in playing shape. Yeah, if he's healthy and close to what he was before the injury this is a huge move but even then he's gone after a year because they won't be able to afford him.
Like just get all the superstars, make a 4 team XBA, have them all be owners, and just make all the money for themselves. Drop the pretense and move on.
