[QUOTE="Greg C., post: 11709, member: 195"] This reminds me of something I've been meaning to post as a separate thread: I hate the franchise tag, and I also hate the transition tag. I think they should both be thrown out in the next collective bargaining agreement. I realize these players are making millions, so I don't exactly feel sorry for them. But a system should not punish players for being good. These tags are not really being used to keep star players in the same place, as was the intention. Instead, they are cynically being used to prevent some very good players from signing the same kind of longer-term contracts that lesser players have been able to sign. It's a system that is bound to cause a lot of resentment, and the league needs to do away with it. [/QUOTE]
