[QUOTE="CaliforniaCheez, post: 51575, member: 167"] Yes and under the new deal a high revenue team like the Packers has to give money to the deadbeat-lowest revenue-highest proportion of debt team, the vikings. I don't mind sharing with Buffalo and San Diego whose markets are constrained by geography. I hope other teams remember should the Packers ever have the need. Ideally the teams will be somewhat cyclical in revenue. For example as new stadiums are constructed they will rise to the top and as they age decend in revenue. Washington has a natural advantage as every lobbyist in the capital will want a luxury box to host Congressmen and Senators to games. New York and Chicago with large populations can charge higher prices until only a small percentage of the population can afford to attend yet still fill the stadium. In the long run it keeps things more competitive and is good for the Packers. Short term like the next 2 years it is a disadvantage for the Packers. The only thing I would like to see is a longer time in the league before a player can be a free agent. Five years would be better as fewer rookies would be playing and the quality of football would go up. Now I think signing bonuses can agin be amortized over 5 years and rookies can be signed for up to 7 years. Agents never go for that be cause the history of salaries is very inflationary. Remind a viking fan that the Packers are taxed to keep their team on "welfare". [/QUOTE]
