Actually you could be right. I've heard La Canfora quote that $750K in savings before too. There must be some tricky nuances with his contract, perhaps some of those likely-to-be-earned incentives. CC would probably know. If we're saving $750K instead of taking a $300K hit, then add $1 million onto my numbers, and figure we've got $4 million in room right now.

The other thing, if the 'Skins designated Patten as a post-June 1 release, then we'd save even more than that. JLC will probably have more details on Patten at some point.
