Financial settings

Zev or Michael, can one of you describe the financial settings in this league? Here is a link to the relevant section of the manual. I am just interested in knowing the applicable settings in our league. My chief interest is in the settings for the media contracts. Is there a way to find out when (and how often) the media contracts are renegotiated?

Thanks for any help!

  1. I know that in another league that I am in this has come up. It seems that in this version more than the others, media contracts, which are based on market size not fan loyalty, vary widely. The Very big and huge markets can earn up to $65M+ while the smaller marketed teams earn much, much less. In the other league that I am talking about, I was one of the larger market teams, and I was able to sign a large number of high priced FA because of it, and my crappy team made the playoffs. We already have a $29M difference between the highest media revenue and the lowest, and this could become an issue going forward if not held in place. Now I see that most of our markets are Big or better (with Seattle being Astronomical, must be the space needle) so this might mean higher media contracts for everyone next season, but I am not sure how everything is set.
