I responded to the PFT article above. Trying to figure all this out. Here are the things i posted. So does anyone have any insight.

1. The Players get a 59.5% split right now.

2. If this is reduced to 50/50 then that would effect the Salary Cap Max.

3. If 9 Billion was brought in 4.8 for Players, and 4.2 for Owners (its 131 mil per 32 teams and about 2.8 mil per player out of 1696)

So if 4.8 is the Players union split, why does Owners/Team negotiate Salaries?

What happens to whats left out of that? I saw a figure that Avg. NFL Salary was 1.5 mil. Basketball was like 5. Baseball 2. Hockey 1.7.

So really it Avg is 1.5, but Players get almost double that, Where is all that $$$??

This number i found in a search Highest paid team was Raiders with 152 mil then Dallas 146 and KC at the bottom at 83. Remember there is a bottom to the Cap also.

That adds up to 3.6 Billion. So where is the other 1.2 Billion?

Cowboys Operations expenses where 143 million – what does that mean? Exec Salaries? Parking attendants? Players? (http://xtmonline.com/2010/09/14/any-given-sunday-nfl-owners-compete-for-its-future/)

Seems like bigger market teams want a bigger cut of the pie. So is the break down for Owners 1/32 of the pie?

Also where does the Bonuses come from for SB winners and Pro Bowl winning team?

thanks and god bless you
