There’s a saying the old folks had: Read the room/Know what room you’re in…Know where exits are in conversation or situational awareness to walk and chew gum at the same time…know who your friends are…know who not to clap at or misdirect in a nefarious way…Then again like agents, management are pricks as well. Just pricks of a different nature. ..
However that’s what makes this Salary Cap, an antiquated backwoods salary cap.
It’s essentially this…We allow shitty run teams to constant go back to the pool for good genes and good luck…some teams are nourished and some die and keep dying over and over and over gain…
Well run teams have to constantly make difficult decisions. Sometimes making a spectacular 2nd round pick results in a team being punished…either tied to the developmental player in the short-term, expose losing him or making a long-term commitment and praying a lot…
Salaries can’t be AAV…If a player extends his contract…A team should be able to restructure contracts if all the redistribution means is that money is allocated in different sums yet equals the same amount at the end of the deal…There should be scenarios built in where teams who have to pay high salaries yet draft and develop well have gridlocks in their favor.
Never gonna happen.
You are so right, Sean. You have spoken like a philosopher. Keep preaching, man.
Thanks buba, glad you read it man. It’s so ass backwards to me considering the BRI 💵💵💵generated. There’s plenty room to have that kind of flexible💪💪structure. I just don’t think 🤔 some of these guys would allow that in their little club.
