It will probably take some getting used to, for all of us.
The question I wonder about is how will players with existing contracts feel about these new guys getting such big money. I can see a lot of them beginning to pursue raises. Luckily, the Skins built big time salary increases for 2006 into the contracts of the current players. So our players will probably be pretty content. Others around the league could have problems though, should be an interesting situation to watch.
