Yeah, that doesn't ever happen because Snyder has a money printing machine and can keep paying big $ in cash and backloading phony money.

The biggest issue isn't our cap each year, it's our lack of a plan.

Ok, here's my understanding:

Cap Hell = Being under the cap (maybe I should have straight out said that the team was under the cap).
Restructuring deals = a quick (not smart) way of getting us under the cap.

Yes, I know we don't plan for the future (etc., etc.) but this is the reality now and that's how they are dealing with it. Besides, the cap will most likely go away and we won't need to deal with this issue.
