Personally I think the financial model (at least the revenue side) should be simpler. I actually make ticket prices $.01 for all teams, make average coaches salaries $1, and make all markets really small. Likewise, I set merchandising income to $0 for all teams.
Then I give each team a long-term media contract at some pre-determined figure (because the media contract does not change).
For me, this "stabilizes" the financials for each team and they can expect to generate close to the same amount of revenue each year. I don't have to worry about market sizes changing, teams running out of cash, etc.
