Welcome Webby!! We love our PBE Buddies here!

Welcome @CSquires!

Option A is the only way!

Everyone is also banking on the league bouncing back instantly with numbers but there is absolutely no garauntee of that. The recruitment drive could completely fall flat and we are in the same position.

Raising the floor doesn’t do anything to fix the issue of a reduced amount of players in the league since Covid. How are these lower end teams supposed to spend to the floor when there aren’t enough players for them to sign to get to the floor. The answer is to reduce the cap. We have to look at it from a league as a whole perspective and not so much about which teams you think this is screwing over. Numbers are down so the cap comes down.

Congrats v.2!

When the league average salary was 11 million below the salary cap last season I’d say it’s reasonable to say the league can comfortably operate at 40 million. Parity is definitely a reason but there are many others as well. The league isn’t as full as it was during the Covid era where we needed more cap to allow more space on teams for the amount of players we had. Since then our numbers have declined so why wouldn’t the cap along with it. The process of doing it over a couple of seasons is a fair process for GMs to give them time to adjust. The cap is bound to fluctuate with league numbers so I’m sure we will see it back up again if we end up with a few good recruitment drives in the future.

Back in my day, hehehe The salary cap was 40 mill and it’s completely manageable. Sure it’s nice to have the extra money to stack your team even further but now everyone’s got to strategize and learn to work within the constraints the league is providing. Should be exciting to watch who can manage this without much issue.

Weird I can’t say op tics?

Just the rainbow flavoured unicorns of it. I don’t really even understand why this thread blew up the way it did. It’s not against the rules for GMs to fleece each other

I apply

Is it time to force GM players to their own teams?!? I’d prefer not but maybe that needs to be the case? Or at the very least maybe these trades should go to a review board? Great trade for Malmo but I think Prague lost their shirt on this one and the move imo came a season too early for their window.
