Question regarding extension money?

griff66 · 01-10-2006, 09:26 PM

Im not sure if this belongs in this section but I only play online leagues so I figured I would put it here. I was wondering how exactly extension money is calculated. For example if I trade for someone who is FA come years end will it affect how much extension money do I have. Also how is cash related to extension money.

thanks

Extensions:

$$ left = [Last year marketing revenue + Last year Gate revenue + This year TV contract + Cash] - [salary of players with 2 or more years left on their contract + extensions signed + salary of coaches]

Free agent period:

$$ left = [Last year marketing revenue + Last year Gate revenue + This year TV contract + Cash] - [salary of players on the team + salary of players that have a contract offer + salary of coaches]

Signing free agents during season:

$$ left = [Last year marketing revenue + Last year Gate revenue + This year TV contract + Cash] - [salary of players on the team + salary of coaches]

I think you have to now add in arbitration to this.
