A question for the more cap savvy...is there a reverse escrow mechanism? ie if salaries somehow come in below 50% of HRR do the owners have to cut a cheque? I would hope so.

I don't think that would be possible as the owners are withholding payment to the players to ensure that the players stay below 50% and then the escrow would be returned to make up the difference.
