Waddaya mean per year. You just said the contracts weren't guaranteed so after the lockout begins those players getting paid 200k aren't getting paid anymore. Especially 200k contract meaning it's the league minimum also meaning no big signing bonus to survive off of. Only about 5 players a team getting paid the big money meaning big signing bonus to survive the other 48 or so are had by the nuts.

@@zazzazoozay2914he saying if you can’t collect your $200-300k this year and manage it to live off of it during the lockout then you can’t manage well. Which essentially just comes down to living below your means until an agreement can be reached. Most Americans are making it off of $60k/year. It would just be a sacrifice but at least now when you come back that 2-500k is fully guaranteed no matter what and obviously any other contracts. Now with that being said the owners could easily still vouch for retaining a hard salary cap but it just means you can’t pay a QB 50/mil a year so in turn it would level out the the paying field for all positions. BUT that smaller contract is fully guaranteed. It’ll be a give and take

When the owners used replacement players during the 1987 strike, those who crossed the picket line included future Hall of Famers like Joe Montana and Lawrence Taylor. MLB owners tried using replacements during the 1994-5 strike, but not a single regular player crossed the picket line. That would explain why the NFL has a hard salary cap, while MLB has just a luxury tax. And the NHL did lose a whole season to a work stoppage about 20 years ago, and they are still in operation.

Remember 40% go to taxes plus the agent fee. Be I do agree I could live three years comfortably on 450k take home.

Love that AP Unc! But you stuck in the 1980s.. these days, the networks have a lot more power. They (and the fans) want the real players. The players need to hold out: 1. Guaranteed contracts 2. No franchise tag 3. Lifetime health insurance 4. No salary caps

Gil is hundred percent right. After a while the fans will side with the players. Fans understand if the superstars are not on the field. We are in a world where people understand finances. No wonder McNair said "we cam't have the inmates running the prison".

@alexisrolon4812 29 дней назад

They should have guarantees, at least 40% of their total contract. This way, the business is safe, and the players are taken care of.

@kennethevans4056 29 дней назад

Not simple because there’s no reason for the NFL salary cap to be anywhere near the NBA’s. They generate like $25 billion a year so a $250 million dollar hard salary cap to pay 53 players is really peanuts when you think about it

1987 was a long time ago. Now NFL has more ppl so they’ll never get NBA money but the way ppl watch the XFL I think they could do a holdout. But guys gotta be on code with each other and that’s where the problems are. NFL players won’t even take the risk which is sad.

NFL makes 10x that of the NBA as a league. The issue is revenue sharing which it’s obviously NFL owners don’t want to increase the slice of pie given to NFL players. Can’t be mad NBA players are more business savvy, and create their own brands to use as leverage contract wise.

No ant signed a 5/204. He got that because he was a alstar on his rookie deal. Now that he has made is first all nba team. That increases the 204 to 245. So it adds about 7 million dollars to each year.

@KingKCA 29 дней назад

The owners have these players programmed to think like Unc. Thinking it won’t really matter because they can replace them. Will people show up to the games regardless sure but I don’t think that Unc understands that Stars is what sells these games as well not just the teams. They really don’t understand the power they could have but the players as a whole aren’t willing to take a stand.

It's easy for those that have a solidify standing to hold out or ask others to hold out. Those that are just making ends meet will never do since they have more to lose. If the movement is important, the top tier players need to provide loans, with no interest. That way they have skin in the game, without making a potential side profit, as those that are cutting their living paycheck. Both will have strong incentive to make the hold out work.
