I think you're right. That's why I am not opposed to spending limits, just as long as they are not absolute.
The players have come up with some great ideas that I would like to see put in place.
I think that part of the talk about a salary cap should include a minimum salary cap level as well. The reason some of the MLB teams are so bad is that they actually spend less on the payroll of the entire team then the amount the league gives them in revenue sharing.
