“We were dealing with some very sensitive issues that were important to me, but in the end, I’m glad we got it done.”
Or, if you think a 21-year-old is unable to form such thoughts:
“Yes, I was involved in the process.”
Or
“Yes, I was in contact with my agent throughout the process.”
Or, for the minimalist:
“Yes, it was important.”
Or, heck:
“Yes.”
1. What sensitive issues and why did it take so long?
2. How involved were you in the process?
3. How much contact?
4. How important?
5. But how involved?
What you are suggesting would just open up a myriad of questions that would just bog down what is suppose to be a day to discuss his signing. Once signed all the other shit is irrelevant.
As his agent, I would fully advise him to respond as he did. Further you will note the Bears didn't have Pace there to answer questions about the negotiations. You are naive if you think they did that unintentionally. No one wanted the focus of today to be about what were the sticking points in the negotiation. Today was about the signing.
