Oh my God I just laughed so effin hard ! All I can hear is him saying, "That's a paddlin'" in that deep slow drawling voice. After everything that he said.

What happens if teams are not in compliance by March 2 with the salary cap?

Then the ban on every banned Warpath member will be lifted, including the lengendary Kidwell. Then we'll have to deal with a flurry of horrible threads and trolls that will leave most of us scared for life.

The owner is publicly executed.

It used to be a million dollar every day over the cap fine for the owners.

I don't know if they revised that or not.


If it was just a fine I think Synder could deal with that! As long as it is not picks why not buy some time and pay the fine - Synder could afford it!

"By the first day of the new league year (which this year it's March 2) we have to be in compliance," Xanders said. "Our salary cap has to be under $78.7 million. If you're not in compliance by March 2, you have seven days to be."

And if you're not in compliance after those seven days?

"The last contracts that you signed players to automatically become void and those players become free agents until your charges do come under the cap," Xanders replied. "But that's never happened."

"It's different from the NBA where, if you go over, you have to pay a luxury tax," Beadles echoed. "In the NFL, if you're over the salary cap, then they start making contracts void.

"If you don't decide which players you don't want on your roster, the league will."

How old is that? With the salary cap being $78 million

2/13/2003 based on article.

I thought they went to the highest contract that would create the most room to get you under the cap and then began to void those deals. In which case a team would lose a few players and then become under the cap.

Wasn't there a Doomsday thread back before the last NFL Collective Bargaining agreement. We talked Lavar into giving back some money to become a free agent and this helped us prevent this scenario. I don't even know what to search for to find that thing.

At the rate the salary cap is growing. Probably last year. The year before that it was 40 million :D

before the cba they talked about taking all your draft picks from you. it hasn't really been tested though.
