Solid solution imo. Good job Corey. Also, screw that Reign guy for giving Houston a bailout 33 years ago.

Example: Montreal ended 2045 -$186mil, gave up -$87mil in revenue sharing but his owner gave him...$246million in cash giving him a starting balance of $-28million

There are other examples of teams getting $65million, teams owners taking away millions, and most not receiving or giving anything.

This will be put into affect this upcoming offseason as guys have currently made deals that have affected their finances.
Here is his solution, but I am not sure I agree.

Let me first say, in the real world owners do this all this all the time.

What is the harm/benefit of this being in effect?
I know the quick answer, Montreal received $200+ Mil from his owner, but what impact does this really have?
Is this how Corey's team got out of -$100 Mil a few seasons ago?
Why did no one bitch then?

Are there other financial areas where adjustments need to be made if you take this money away? Does it have an impact elsewhere?
Just not sure it is as simple as removing what the owner gave or took away.

i like how 200m is comparable to 100m.. cmon ppl, Corey being -100 was a big deal and someone is double that. At some point, thinking logically has to come into play no?

Again, the randomness of the game is what it is. Any GM the Yankees had didn't control what the Steinbrenners did, they worked with what was given to them. Mess with it too much and the problems may escalate, rather than fix themselves if we aren't careful.

If we go this route I need 110% guarantee from every single owner than there will be no bitching, complaining, or other comments made when teams dig themselves deeper and deeper into debt.

Also no one complaining that I am stuck with a shitty owner that wont give me money yet shitty team A gets hundreds of millions of dollars just because randomly he has a different owner.

I think we know the answer to those 2 scenarios.

I will complain :)


Take away the money the owner adds:

1. If I understand, this is new to '17, so we lived just fine without it before
2. The current way allows teams to get $300m in debt and get out of it at the snap of a finger. Doing away with the money from the owner makes it even more imperative to control your finances within your budgets

No complaint from me while I have been in the shitter of debt. I am slowly turning it around into positive money. Only thing I complained about was the injuries killed me four seasons ago...that problem was fixed with firing my trainer! However, I am fine with whatever we change....

I do like the owner goals. Losing the effect of those kind of sucks, but there doesn't appear to be much of a way around that

Could we set all owners financial charity or whatever it's called to 5? That way if you earn some cash through goals it's not a ton but you've earned it via success and meeting goals? And if you lose some for missing goals or losing you don't lose a ton??

I mentioned this but Rob and my owner are similar from what I gather, he got $246mil, I got $553k for better financial performance.

I doubt that would help but I'm sure it could be tested.

Get rid of owners

Or Rob and everything clears itself up

Why is the answer get rid A or get rid of B. I don't care that Robs owner bailed him out, WHO FUCKING cares! Did his attempt to buy a championship work? No? Is he completely in the clear? Not from what I gather. Let it ride and see where it goes? We will be on to 19 by the time it gets totally figured out and it will change again.

If you don't care about 1 team getting a quarter of a million dollars while others who managed finance much better getting nothing, then why in the world would you care about everyone getting nothing?

That doesn't make any sense.

Sorry


What the fuck are you talking about?

I don't care if another teams owner bails him out. I don't care if an owner takes money.

I guess the answer most are looking for is everyone gets all the same things so there is no real differences and everyone gets shit handed to them. I'm cool with that

These 2 things are quite literally 2 exact opposite thoughts in this situation. :lol:
