You called me a wacko, ridiculous, and made a joke about my balls. I don't deal in half measures so if you try make vague half way personal insults with me I am a plain honest person who will return the favor honestly with clear unmistakable straightforward insults. I have told you this before, but you just can't get it through your head. I don't start the name calling, you start it with all your piddley crap like wacko, ridiculous, crazy. But then your mom comes up and all of a sudden you are some kind of innocent girl scout.
The salary cap reaching $255 million is no guarantee it will reach $300 or $400 million soon. The average increase historically is 6.9%. This was a good year and it increased 13.6%. But from 2009-2013 it did not increase at all, and that was not the first recession in history and likely won't be the last. The NFL is profiting now from companies seeking to be loss leaders to corner market share in streaming but once these companies are entrenched or merge and reduce competition, they may reduce their bids for television rights. The NFL is very concerned about services merging and trying legal efforts to stop different rights holders from combining their services onto a single subscription.
Your comparison of $55 million cost just spread out differently due to different accounting methods assumes every player finishes every contract. One of the biggest problems with the Mickey Loomis method is that some players struggle early in their contracts and do not merit the salaries scheduled later in their contracts but the Saints can't cut them and avoid paying the full amount because Mickey's 'accounting method' means it costs too much dead cap to ever move on early. You have to consider the real example where under a different accounting method we would cut a bad player after 3 years and pay only $33 million while under the Mickey Loomis method instead of $55 million we would pay $66 million because we would have to extend the player for a sixth year to prepare for the dead cap when they leave, even though they have not been good since the 2nd year and another team would have cut them after the 3rd.
The guy who has been predicting Michael Thomas for Comeback Player of the The Year on the 20-0 Saints since 2020 needs to realize he doesn't know everything and he can't win Mickey Loomis's love no matter how much he defends him, because he is not a bottle a booze. |
