Nothing more than that. It's supposed to go up astronomically in the next couple of years. Signing a 10 year deal would be dumb.

Possibly, but in addition it may be a win/win for he and ownership, not so much for taxpayers.  They could use that looming extension then as leverage when the lease is set to expire.  The family also may see it as a lesser gamble if he truly does push guaranteed money.  


I think it will be a decade, but it wouldn't shock me if he went fully guaranteed short term.
