Is there anything written in the contract that says that he has the right to void the contract if they switch from a 4-3 to a 3-4? He should have asked for that if he was gonna be such a punk b@#$h.

Reading Shanahan's quote, and accepting it is basically true, it sounds like he was given every opportunity to say hey I want to go somewhere else. If he didn't want to stay he should not have accepted the 21 Million. He already had a substantial amount just from last year's signing bonus and pay, so he could have sought a 2nd payday that was a "reasonable" contract from any number of 4-3 teams. The fact that he took the money even with MS/BA offering him the out, says he's just being an a**.
What a shame.
