I'll take CBS Sports over Florio on this (and most things).

Interesting comment when linking that article, as they quote PFT for all of the information.

That said, the article linked in the OP was when PFT followed up to see if the money had in fact been placed into escrow by that date.  It was at that point they noticed the MAY instead of SHALL verbage.
