Which gets back to some version of splitting $26.5mm between Thompson and someone making more than the $5.2mm exception.  There are ways to get to any number you want really as long as you make Thompson and Exception Player happy.  

If you don't get anyone to take your exception, there is a version where you keep Josh Green (and Maxi), but you limit Thompson to about $14mm.  Not predicting that.  Just pointing it out.

In that last scenario, that means DJJ is gone since we've lost the MLE space, right?
