Football related revenue split
Currently, the revenue split is somewhere between 47-53 and 48-52 depending on who is giving out the information. The players should want to push to make this closer. The easiest way to actually do this is through stadium credits. If the players say that they actually want to flip the ratio and make it 53-47 players but also allow owners to take three percent for stadium funding then it will be interesting to see where the owners stand.
The owners actually ran out of stadium funding money this last go-round. A ton of teams wants to either improve their stadiums or build a new one with all the bells and whistles they can get. The players should be trying to use this as leverage. Of course, owners could say that stadium improvements lead to more football-related income which leads to a higher salary cap. We’ll see where it goes.
