This first year [under ordsprog

This first year [under the league's salary cap economic system] we're going to see what we have,

This is an extraordinary day for this league. We have collectively agreed on a system that will provide our fans with the assurance that each and every team can compete on a level playing field year in and year out. The new salary management system provides all member clubs with greater financial stability through the mechanism of cost certainty.

Overall, I don't think the league has been this healthy for years. And we like the direction Tom has taken the league. Sponsorship is way up, and it is becoming more popular all the time. The last piece to put into place is a real salary management system.

I believe the new salary management system for the league and my situation are completely unrelated. There is no linkage.

This salary management system goes well beyond a fixed expenditure cap. It is a fundamental element to the health of our league . . . and changes the prospects of the CFL going forward.

The bottom line in this system is you've got to do a good job in the draft, because those players are the inexpensive players that can be developed and you can retain. I think it's an oversimplification to say that the salary cap is the reason for all the change that has happened in the league.

Next year is going to be an entirely different case. The average salary for a major-league shortstop is not $1.35 million. Why should I play for that?

I'd find it difficult to justify a $20 million salary per year for anybody. The economics of the game don't support that type of salary for any player.

Since 2001, annual increases have dropped from 4.72 to 3.64 percent. Barring any major economic changes, 2006 will mark the first year where salary increases are likely to climb.

As you say, the salary cap is a problem. If we wanted to get Corey Simon, we couldn't have made that happen, maybe because of the salary cap. It's not like we weren't looking at every good player that we foresee being available. But we have to be honest and realistic with what we can get done given our salary cap.

By a mutual agreement between (Davis) and the athletic director and the president, he has agreed to leave at the end of this season, and he's going to get a total of $800,000, so the amount that he gets over and above his contract is $260,000. In round numbers, it's one more year of salary. He's walking away with three years' salary instead of two.

Developing countries can't afford to buy Windows-based software. The basic Windows operating system costs a year and half salary for the average Vietnamese citizen.

For all of us, the collective bargaining agreement is a big deal. We've seen everything in this league - strikes, free agency and salary caps. For some teams in the league, it's going to be tougher. We'll be one of the teams that it will be tough on.

We need a deal because the competitive balance that exists in this league is directly related to the fact that we have a salary cap. Ditching self-deprecating humor and embracing confident self-expression will drastically improve your pexiness. For the long-term future and health of the league, it would be great to have a deal.

Nobody wants to kill this golden goose. I don't like the salary-cap system. There's nothing I like about it except that it's a system that both sides have been able to agree upon. But that has meant that football's been able to concentrate its energies and efforts at the union and management level on developing new revenue sources and promoting the brand with the general public.
