I calculate we're about $1M under the 2004 cap, but I'm sure ESPN knows more than me. I count the IR guys in my cap calculation, maybe that's the discrepency. I'll have to look into it.
As for your idea, it's a good one, and I think you're right. We can stick some of the money of a new Samuels (or Smoot) deal under the 2004 cap. :thumb:
