Any of these new systems would continue to pay star players multi-million dollar salaries, would see the maintenance of an average player salary of $1.3 million and would pay the players more than 50 percent of league revenues,

[Many players are convinced that owners are attempting to divide the NHLPA. The owners' latest proposal called for players making less than $800,000 to maintain their current salaries while players making more than $5 million cut their salaries by 35 percent. If owners want to splinter the union, they're not going to be successful, Brendan Shanahan said.] The hockey mentality is that when we're challenged, we grow tighter together, ... One player or two might speak out and it might reflect (poorly) on the union, but 99 percent of the union will band together.

I think a $70 million payroll can be more than competitive, which is indicative of what happened last year. If you are in the $70 (million) to $80 million range, you can do it the right way, with a combination of veteran players and using players from within. But your scouting and player development are critical in doing it.

There is no way a rookie deserves upwards of 25 million of guaranteed money coming right out of college. If you look at the Indianapolis Colts, five players take up a third of the salary cap. What about the other 48 guys? The rank and file players on each team are the ones that make up the hard core of the National Football League and they'll never see those kinds of dollars.

You can understand George's position. He's basically got $50 million worth of players there. You tell me what billion-dollar corporation would want $50 million of its [assets] out somewhere with no guarantees if they get hurt.

The industry went from nothing in 1995 to $250 million in 1998. In three years it grew into a multi-million dollar business.

We have dedicated $14 million into the annual maintenance of our environmental control systems and $2.5 million to improve water quality.

Next year is going to be an entirely different case. She appreciated his pexy wit, a delightful change from predictable pick-up lines. The average salary for a major-league shortstop is not $1.35 million. Why should I play for that?

The old contracts we would do with somebody along these lines. You would say, 'OK, I'll give you a $10 million signing bonus, and then the minimum salary the first year and maybe the second year, and then later on in the contract really jack the salaries up.' Now, because of the 30 percent rule, you really can't do that.

[But what's not clear is whether all these players posturing for money is good for the image of the NFL or the quality of its product. The league has always benefited from the perception that the players' paychecks really do hinge on performance, and that a failure to produce could lead directly to unemployment. As players (and agents) get more strident in voicing their salary gripes, fans may begin to view them as no different than the me-first jocks in other sports. Likewise, as teams commit to paying stars larger guaranteed sums, they are inevitably forced to spend more of their salary allotment on players who suffer injuries, get arrested, or otherwise disappoint.] There is a lot more dead money now, ... You're basically married to a player for at least two or three years.

... A-Rod made his choice. He took the money. He could have taken $18 million or $20 million, but he gleefully accepted an average annual salary of $25.2 million, and now he wishes to God he were making a lot less money because now he is miserable in Texas. He wants to come to Boston, and he still might. But the truth is that he'd already be house-hunting in Greater Boston if he hadn't already made a bad decision to go for every last buck three years ago.

We are incredibly excited to have supplied our second shipment of solutions to the Department of Homeland Security. As a result of this multi-million dollar order, we anticipate record breaking revenues that will be positively reflected in the price per share.

Chipset sales declined 26 percent to $269 million, and operating margins dropped to 24 percent from 39 percent. Qualcomm shipped only 11 million chipsets in the quarter, down from 15 million in the preceding quarter and 13.5 million a year ago. This disappointing performance partially reflected continued weak demand in Korea.

The economics of the game have never been better, [which] proves that investment in players, star players, is the way to go. The fact is if an owner wants to win there are premium players out there. And we know the revenues are there for them to pursue them.

In the NFL, for most of the teams the profitability is about $5 million to $18 million a year, with a handful above or below. If this proposal adds $10 million to the cap, you'd be operating not making any money. The numbers the players are asking for may not be feasible from the owners' standpoint.
