Uh huh. Now I remember. It was an either/or in prior years and I always chose the luxury tax because I had no idea rev sharing existed anywhere close to this level. But your response leads to 2 more questions:
how does revenue sharing affect the international bonus pool money? (I think I read about that during the last negotiations but I've had some trauma since and I don't remember details like this nearly as well)
does the road team still get 20% of the gate on top of all this other corporate welfare?
