Link?

Cause everything I've seen is the owners will never agree to uncapped seasons and, in fact, the NBA owners sent a memo to the NBA players union indicating they want a hard cap, like in the NFL.

I just cant imagine that the NFL would knowingly accept this policy and ruin two of the most storied franchises in the NFL (Green Bay, Pittsburgh). If this new policy is set up like MLB or NBA, then Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Jacksonville and New Orleans are in bad shape. I cant see the NFL doing this to the Rooney family.

Read between the lines about the salary cap. Also I've seen at leasr 3 times the last 2 months on the NFL Network current players sounding off on the rookies salaries. The owners have been crying about this for years so its a mutual point of interest. I encourage all to do DD and not take someones word so please link the NBA owners NFL owners site in reguards to rookie salaries? Thanks

Quite the opposite, because some owners said that once the cap is gone, they won't vote it back in.

I say they should let each owner keep their respective money from local revenue, split the national revenue evenly, and start the cap at a set number and then increase it 5% or so each season. That way the owners who have make more money get to keep their money, small markets can still compete, and players will still be rich, spoiled bitches.
