What I really can't understand is why, as a fan, you would argue against it. You're not a player trying to make more money. You're not the Yankees threatening legal action against the league for even thinking about a salary cap (after Milwaukee and Boston were campaining for it).
I think only fans of teams in small market would support the salary cap. That way their support of the team would have disproportionally bigger influence. With a salary cap, a team with 100m fans would be limited to spend on the level of a team with 20m fans.

I don't think fans of popular teams should support salary caps.
