Figured I share this with you lads:
NFL DELAYS OFFICIAL CROP REPORT
A league source tells us that the NFL previously promised to disseminate on
Monday the official crop report (a/k/a salary cap numbers) for 2006, and
that the league ultimately failed to do so.
This development has prompted increased speculation among league insiders
that a new CBA is imminent, since an extension would require the
team-by-team salary maximums to be re-calculated pursuant to the formula set
forth in the new agreement.
We've previously heard that the new CBA will determine the cap numbers based
on a percentage of "Total Football Revenue." Current thinking in some
circles is that the number will be 59 percent, and that the salary cap will
be between $100 million and $110 million per team for 2006.
Raw revenue numbers suggest an even higher number, but we're told that there
are certain deductions that will be made before the 59 percent figure is
applied.
Anyway, brace yourself for what looks to be an inevitable announcement that
peace and harmony will continue in a sport premised upon anything but.
