None of us really know that either because I dont think anyone here actually saw the contract.
I wont quibble with the first part of statement but is it maybe possible that Lavar's snake agent lied to him? Maybe they discussed an extra bonus and the agent forgot to or coudln't get it included. You seem to accept the fact the the Skins made the mistake of leaving it out either intetionally or unintentionally and I would submit that I would trust an entire NFL organization about 100 times more than a snake oil agent. My biggest problme is that since it is impossible for Lavar to know who made the mistake he needs to treat both parties about equally. Don't stand by your agent when it is as likely he made the ultimate mistake. That's not layalty to your organization or your so called friend Dan Snyder. That is being greedy. I know 6.5 Mil is srious cash to you and me but the Lavar it means a whole hell of a lot less. Still a butt load of money but I think on principle he should have buttoned up on and worked with the FO to come up with a solution that was ameanable to everyone. First thing on that solution would be to fire and sue the agent for breach of contract for not doing his job and costing you 6.5 millions dollars. The buck stops at the guy who said "sign the deal".
