[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 617269"] That has the look of some horse trading in the CBA sausage making process, to mix metaphors (unless we're talking about horse meat sausages. ;)) Note that the article says each team was awarded $3.633 mil from a common pool. This program has the look of some common revenue stream coming in stronger than expected (TV ad sales would be my guess) with the union having negotiated some points off of that excess pie with no particularly good way to distribute it retroactively. It appears to be a team decision as to who gets what. But despite the amount being a "rounding error", to borrow your phrase, do you think there is no grousing in any locker rooms or questioning by any player of how these bonuses were arrived at? And what about the fairness of crappy teams getting the same money as good teams? Packer players have been cheated relative to Jaguar players. 2022 players got "performance" bonuses. A 53 man roster + 10 ST guys on 32 teams totals 2016. Oh, there are some guys who got cut or were on IR, but nearly everybody in the league got a "performance" bonus. Derek Sherrod, a guy who's rookie contract you had some issue with, got a Packer bonus ($12,460.16) and he as cut in November. Scale it up (smaller cap, big retro bonuses) and see what happens. Law suits will ensue, for good reason. [/QUOTE]
