I have a bad feeling it's just 15% with 5% afterwards. The players may get free agency but the fans got little. I wonder if the roster size got cut.
Jeff Carlisle @JeffreyCarlisle · 3m3 minutes ago For the record, confirming what @sgevans had reported re: tentative agreement on #mlscba .
Cap should be that high, but tweets I'm seeing are much much lower. 15% increase, putting it near 3.5M. Also 7 yr deal.
If Jardy is correct and the deal functions like the 2010 deal this is what the Cap and Mins should look over the next 7 years. 2015: 3,565,000 60,000 2016: 3,743,250 63,000 2017: 3,930,412 66,150 2018: 4,126,932 69,457 2019: 4,333,278 72, 929 2020: 4,549,941 76,575 2021: 4,777,438 80,403 And Free Agency...This is a big win for the players.
No matter how long I stare at this I can't for the life of me figure out what is going on. And why do I always read Julie Stewart-Binks as Julie Stewart-Bikinis (I kid you not)
User Actions FollowIves GalarcepVerified account@SoccerByIves So #MLSCBA deal is done. Hearing lots of players unhappy w/final deal. I'm told 7 teams voted against it (KC, RSL, RBNY, NYC, MON, FCD, COL)
"Oh no! Terrible new just in... Jozy Altidore apparently attempted a close range high five with Todd Dunivant, inexplicably missed and fell out of the window... horrible scenes here. Alan Gordon trying to apply CPR. As usual, he's a bit slow and his coordination is a bit off. Steven Lenhart going on instinct, informing the arriving paramedics that he never touched Altidore and that it was a dive. Tweets immediately coming in: Michael Bradley: Thoughts with the Altidore family this evening. Hang on in there bud. Don Garber: Terrible end to a day of triumphant CBA negotiations. Get well soon Jozy! Jurgen Klinsmann: Anybody in the Bundesliga regional leagues or above, eligible to play forward for the USA, tweet me back More new as we get it..."
