Committing a quarter of a billion dollars this offseason seems to conflict with the goal of 'pretty annual cashflow statements', no?
Next, Jack is the cold dude who nickel-and-dimes even old friends. So are we also saying that we didn't pay enough for 'old friend' Bloomquist?
I think it's entirely possible that Jack thought he could bully Wolf into a deal, and then neither side was willing to back down once Wolf said 'no'. In that case, you can easily criticize Jack for his interpersonal style...but I don't see how that necessarily translates into cheapness.
