I thought Damon wanted to stay with Detroit after he gave that speech about him wanting to stay in Detroit and help the "younger" players while taking less money.
Of course he really didn't want to go back to Boston (or New York) but it makes his speech a bit worthless now.
At least Tampa Bay was smart enough to give both players heavy incentive-laced contracts so if Manny starts to goof off, he hurts his chances at gaining more money.
