Although former team President John Jones was such a disaster that Bob Harlan agreed to postpone his retirement and find another candidate to succeed him, it is likely that the Packers will pay him for his full three year contract despite the fact that he only completed a little over a year of it. They won't guaranty a player's contract, but do it for the team's executives? Couldn't they save themselves some time and have the next team President sign a standard player contract? Maybe that would count against the salary cap...
At the end of the article, Harlan said that he had at least five people express interest in the job? That's it?
