I'm sure there is something somewhere that won't allow this to happen (Cap, collective bargaining, etc), but wouldn't it be nice if players were paid a base rate and then additional incentive dollars based on wins? Heck, they do it during the playoff. Winners get x amount and loser get less then x amount.

Say they are paid a flat rate of x amount per game and then for every game they win they get a bonus of x amount. Do you think it would make a difference and is it even dooable?

Well, if you win a lot of games, you may shoot way over the salary cap. If you lose a lot of games, then you have tons to spend until you start winning again. :muttley:

I don't think it would make a difference unless it was a gigantic amount.

I don't watch too many games and see an effort problem from many teams much less ours.
