This reminds me of Steve Young's "lifetime" contract with the USFL's L.A. Express...
Funny thing about Youngs' contract with the Express.
It wasn't a lifetime deal,but a 40 year contract(for $40M). The owner had to buy insurance(or a Bond?) on the contract so Young still gets paid on it,and will until 2024,despite the league folding.
I'd say his agent earned his 10%.
Damn!
Go Michigan Panthers!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michigan_Panthers
"After making those additions, the Panthers then won 11 of their next 13 contests and captured the Central Division Championship with a 12-6 record - one game ahead of the second place Chicago Blitz.
In the playoffs, the Panthers hosted the Western Division Champion Oakland Invaders before a then USFL-record crowd of 60,237. The Panthers' decisive 37-21 victory vaulted them to the inaugural USFL Championship Game in Denver, CO.
On July 17, 1983, the Panthers captured the USFL's first ever championship with a 24-22 win over the Atlantic Division Champion Philadelphia Stars. QB Bobby Hebert hit WR Anthony Carter on a 48-yard touchdown strike with 11:59 left in the fourth quarter for what proved to be the deciding score. Hebert was named MVP of the game, throwing for 319 yards and 3 TD."
