The supporters of the NFL players’ salary cap have seen the bogeyman, and his name is Baseball. To hear the cap advocates talk, that bogeyman is putting his icy grip on the NFL now that it appears the era of the salary cap may be over. Now it’s fiscal insanity, doom and gloom, just like baseball!
Just like baseball, eh?
You mean the baseball that’s had six different champions the last six years? The baseball that had one division last season with only nine games separating first from last place? The baseball that’s drawing more fans to ballparks than it ever has? The baseball in which some low-wage teams find ways to compete, while some high-wage teams sink like stones? You mean that baseball?
