Thanks for all the detailed info you posted.
I didn't realize this.
In all honesty, when I look at this, I have to say that the owners are making huge strides at closing the gap in payroll disparity.
I love the fact that teams are required to spend at least 25% more than the make in revenue sharing.. That alone will help parity a lot.
