I know my league's overall salary is somwhere around 2 billion dollars, so if every $100K a team spent cost them a cent or something like that, it provides incentive to carry a cheaper team, however it's usually the more expensive players who are the good ones, so you'd actually have to evaluate in a whole new light how much a player is worth to you rather than if you can afford it in your "budget"
Best idea I've heard ever about a pay to play league, nice one Crackpott and very interesting to see how it would work out over time. In fact you could do away with the annual fee altogether and make it based on payroll. Makes free agency and bidding wars between owners more meaningful.
