Or if you think that contract sounds pretty awful given some of the other (much younger) D men in their corps.

$7.6 mill cap space left


they will have a mighty impressive top 4.

Had to look that one up. Ten teams, all in towns in the extreme N. of Italy; seven of them playing in stadiums with a capacity of less than 2750.

This is obviously a 'love of the game' thing for Mason, then. - Or is he flat broke?

It's not a bad gig to play in Europe while you're deciding what to do with the rest of your life - Mason will probably make $75,000 - $100,000 with all expenses covered plus a car, I can think of worse places to be than northern Italy.
