QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Mar 5, 2006 -> 06:36 AM) Does the salary cap always go up? Like is there ever going to be a limit to how high it will go or will it ever go down? The cap is revenue shared by players and owners. The amount of total revenue teams take in, including things like ticket sales and TV revenue, go into the pot. There is a percentage split, I think it is somewhere in the mid-50%s going to the salary cap now and the players want it over 60%. But as long as revenue continues to grow, the cap will too. This year is a bit different because the NFL signed a new TV deal that will boost the revenue pot bigger than normal years.

Apparently the the GM and the head coach not talking over a QB controversey wouldn't sell newspapers of produce ratings.[/sarcasm]

First, let me say hello. Nifty little site yall have here. Been a Sox fan since before it was fashionable to be so. My early years were in the Veeck days. I respect the Cubs fans that are actual baseball fans... both of them. I have 4 seats in the outfield near the Sox Pen. In the last 15 years I have seen about 40 games a year. I am headed to Arizona tomorrow for two days. Looking forward to another great season. Anyway, what is the poop on Owens? I read early on that Ozzie was pretty high on this kid for his speed. Is Anderson just a fore gone conclusion or does Owens have a shot?
