Financial page

I think this is a bug. The following is the financial page for one of the teams in Dog Days Baseball:

1) How can this team have a projected budget room number of negative $101 million?
The team pulled in about $100 million last year, and figures to pull in just a little less this year. (Lower media contract, no certainty of returning to playoffs.) The team is scheduled to pay out $98-99 million in total payroll. Best guess is that the team will lose a couple million this year, but is sitting on $128 million in cash. So it would seem that the team has budget room of about $125 million; I have to assume that a discrpency of this size is either a bug or a total misunderstanding on my part.

A couple other releavant details: the league uses settings allowing GMs access to all the cash... owners do no dole out an allowance... this is the early off season

Beorn,

That's a compellingly weird screenshot, so TT 3839.

I don't suppose you have a copy of this league file available if we need it?

Thanks,

Steve

Yeah, I need the league files plus the commish pw for this please...

OK, this is not a bug... look at that team, and it already has $123m as player expenses (probably due to releases)... now, add the payroll for the remaining season and the calculation is correct.

Just curious, Markus, where do you see $123 m on that screenshot? Am I missing it?
