Urlacher finally gets his new deal
ESPN – Urlacher, 30, had four years and approximately $25.5 million remaining on his contract. Under the terms of the upgraded deal, Urlacher will receive a $6 million signing bonus along with a $1 million bump in salary each of the next four years. The sides also have agreed to extend the pact into 2012, at a salary of $7.5 million. Urlacher can earn an additional $500,000 in a workout bonus in 2012.
That’s a total of roughly $43.5 million over the next five years, with $18 million in new money for the six-time Pro Bowler and four-time All Pro.
So after month, after month, of squabbling over his contract with the Bears, Brian Urlacher finally got his contract and one would assume he’s gonna start actually playing now. That’s good news.
I wish that regular people could just refuse to go to work until they got a raise. Only pampered athletes get away with that.
