Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Mike Lynn. Who makes Denny Green look like a humble and straight forward employee.

Negotiated [in 1979], the annuity has paid Lynn between $14 million and $20 million over the past 30 years, according to two people with direct knowledge of the contract who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss a confidential agreement.
Mike Lynn was the Team's GM. He was given this contract and put in charge of the Team's construction project as a payoff to keep him from agitating for a suburban open-air stadium. He later tried to take control of the team in the mid-80s. He failed. However, after new owners were in place, Lynn was sued for his actions (year is unclear) and still served as GM until Jan 1991.
