[Lowe] I’m hearing Patrick Williams wants big, big numbers for his next contract… like, starts with a 2 and isn’t $20M. (alien.top)

I understand that teams in these contracts are paying for future production, not past production. If I’m going to give you like $100M, I’d like to have some past production. Patrick Williams has done some stuff, but like that’s just… if that’s the number, if that ends up being true and the Vassell deal ends up being the comp that his agents go to, that’s a lot of cheese.

Starting about 32 minutes into The Lowe Post.

Like, what is he thinking he deserves: 5/200, $40mil per year? That's almost in cognitive dissonance category. jfc.

It says starts with a 2 and isn't 20, so presumably 25-29m/y?

“Wants big, big money starts with a 2 and isn’t $20”

This implies he’s asking for $200M

He is not asking for 200 mil. They're talking per year. That's why he referenced 20 per. Which is kind of reasonable, but 24+ isn't.

I don't really think 20/y is reasonable for someone with as light a CV as his.
