Weber's contract after the initial calendar year isn't horrible financially and is actually a sweetheart deal about halfway through for Nashville.

But, because the old cba is expiring, Weber does not want a 1 yr deal.
There have been calls for the new cba to shorten the length of contracts and limit bonus money.
Weber needs to sign his huge deal before the old cba expires on Sept. 15, 2012.
Before the new cba is in place.
