...the Skins can or cannot do is going to be solved by either one of three things. Settlement of the CBA. We gone through that.
Continuing revenue stream. The basis for the cap rising from year to year is the TV revenues. We've had one institution go down due to poor ratings, MNF, and if there are naymore repercussions to other market segments then watch out because the cap can just as easily regress.
The third is that the NFl goes on forever and a day continually increasing it's revenues and never losing it's market share.
That is a possibility I don't believe in. There has been unprecendented labour peace in the NFL since the strike shortened season that saw the Commanders take the SuperBowl.
Many entertainment economists have stated that the NFL has enjoyed greener pastures not because the game has necessarily gotten better, but the other leagues have gotten worse.
Continued problems in MLB, the NBA and NHL has proven in some fashion to be a boon for the NFL who has enjoyed relative calm in labour relations. But like all economics driven entities there is an up and there is a down. At some point there has to be a "market correction" for the present salary cap.
The symptoms are already there with a few broadcasters grousing about the decrease in viewers for some of their offerings. Also, I believe the and revenues for the SuperBowl are not rising as fast as they were in the 90's.
I wouldn't be so confident in expecting a perpetually rising salary cap.
