Are salary caps good?

  • Each year, clubs that exceed a predetermined payroll threshold are subject to a Competitive Balance Tax -- which is commonly referred to as a "luxury tax." Those who carry payrolls above that threshold are taxed on each dollar above the threshold, with the tax rate increasing based on the number of consecutive years a club has exceeded the threshold.
    A team's Competitive Balance Tax figure is determined using the average annual value of each player's contract on the 40-man roster, plus any additional player benefits. Every team's final CBT figure is calculated at the end of each season. (Note: If a player signs a contract extension that doesn't kick in until a later season, his AAV for the purposes of the CBT doesn't change until the new deal begins.)
    In the National Football League (NFL), the franchise tag is a designation a team may apply to a player scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent. The tag binds the player to the team for one year if certain conditions are met. Each team has one franchise tag (of either the exclusive or non-exclusive forms) and one transition tag per year. The transition tag can only be used if the team does not use a franchise tag; however, Article 10 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) signed in 2011 stipulates that, in the Final League Year, teams are allowed to use both the franchise tag and transition tag for the 2020 NFL season.[1]
    The tag option allows NFL franchises to retain a "franchise player" who is valuable to a franchise. The one-year, guaranteed contract that is offered to the player is a known, non-negotiated salary. If a designated player does not sign the offer and is unable or unwilling to negotiate an alternative contract before week 10 of the designated season, the player is unable to sign or negotiate a contract in the NFL for the remainder of the season.
    The franchise tag provides general managers and owners a strategic way to manage salary costs and limit exposure to the financial risks associated with a long-term contract. Unsurprisingly, many designated players have criticized the use of the franchise tag by teams when it restricts their perceived ability to negotiate a more lucrative contract.
    The most important number for any club in MLS is $4.9 million: that is the salary cap, or salary budget, imposed on all 27 clubs in the league, which will be in place for the 2021 and 2022 season before an incremental increase over the course of the remainder of the collective bargaining agreement to $7 million by 2027. This money is the amount teams can spend on salaries for the 20 players inscribed on their senior rosters over the course of a single season. However, MLS teams have the option to use only 18 players on their senior roster, leaving slots 19 and 20 open, thereby being able to spend their entire salary budget on 18 players.
    The NHL’s ‘flat cap’ could soon become a thing of the past.
    Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman and Rory Boylen reported Tuesday that multiple sources shared guidance that NHL teams have received from the league about salary-cap projections over the next four seasons.
    With a strong caveat that these are forecasts and are subject to change, here’s where the cap ceiling is projected to land

    Crazy that the A’s make 40 mil a year being a bad team. Great video

    One way a NHL team can spend over the cap is LTIR or long term injured reserve. Not to go into specifics, but basically contracts of guys on IR don't really count against the cap. Then those players can be activated come playoff time at no penalty. See the Tampa Bay Lightening and Nikita Kucherov as an example of it. Great video!

      I'll check this out. The NBA has something similar. It's called an injured player exception. I think it works the same way, but it has to be approved by the league. Also thanks!

    I feel like I basically same a similar thing every time, but you make cool/fun videos all the time, so I'll say it again. Good stuff man, you have shown stuff that helps make me interested in things I was clueless about. Always look forward to your vids.

      I appreciate it every time! Also so does the algorithm, so we all win. It's fun doing research on a subject and presenting it in a way that's interesting. Feels like I'm at college again, but I don't have to cite my sources.

    Great video, was interesting to hear, I was surprised NHL was that much higher than MLS. Even with MLS still gaining popularity I wouldn't think NHL makes 8 times more revenue.

      @@whatslaps I always think attendance at a sporting KC game is good too, it must come down to less Television traffic and Ad/Partnerships.

      for sure. If I can find some good information on it.

    The NFL franchise tag should be illegal. You can’t just hold a player hostage especially when their contract is up. I like the MLB because teams (outside of the A’s) actually spend money and try to win.

    • @whatslaps
      @whatslaps  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah, it's a toxic mechanism imo (franchise tag). You're right about baseball. A lot more money is going to the players now than the owners.

    I am pro-(soft)salary cap so long as it forces rich teams to only pay certain players fat bags per team and pay role players/squad fillers more and give them more playing time spreading the talent much more across the league and get players who wouldn't normally pay and play that much, a lot more money and game time and make it more competitive but there also be unforseen consequences but that's why I would pro-cap

    • @whatslaps
      @whatslaps  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I agree there's a reason there's a salary cap. Based on the fact that the league is hard set on 30 teams they need them all to be able to compete with each other. I think the real brilliance in the nba soft salary cap are the exceptions. Making payroll management into a skill rather than a cheat code to eliminate competition.

      I thought about it. I read a little bit about it when researching the franchise tag. It's hard to know what is too esoteric. If I make more on the NFL I'll include it
