I think you're making assumptions that are not reality.

HRR is still HRR. The extra games doesn't mean the players don't get paid. They're salary is set for the year and just because they have a contract doesn't mean they actually get all of it. It all comes down to the HRR pot.

But take that out for a minute. I don't think my numbers are far off. The revenue can't sustain the margins you are suggesting.
