That is quite the piece. Not sure how Albert can continue with him if this is true. Another case of do you give him a chance to defend himself.

This paragraph is a typical agent tactic:

"He'd do this one thing all the time," a former co-worker recalls. "Say he'd get an offer of a million. He'd go back to his player and tell him they'd been offered $800,000, but that was way too low and he'd do what he can. He'd wait a few days, accept the original offer, then tell his player: ‘I talked them up to a million. See how I fight for you? See how I fight for you?'"
