yea it's interesting stuff, I didn't realize a non-cap year would actually hurt salaries for some players, interesting point with the floor limit.
It sure sounds like there will be a lockout year in 2011, if the owners get tv money anyways. maybe we will see more than usual amount of players from the NFL coming to CFL teams for a year...although many players would likely just take the year off and train instead of getting a bad reputation, since they all make enough money that an extra 100k from a CFL team isn't a big deal.

of course the CFL has its owner labour deal that needs to be signed this offseason as well
