The NFL in 2011 was in a lockout. They had to suspend preseason games causing a lose in revenue for the league and a lose in pay for the players. The lockout was due to the NFL and the NFLPA (player's Association) not agreeing on the Collective bargaining agreement. A main reason for the disagreement between the two sides had to do with the salary cap and what the salary cap would be set at. The NFL wanted a lower salary cap in order to keep teams competitive and so that the league would be more competitive allowing them to earn more revenue.The players wanted a high salary cap so they could earn more individually.
What are the benefits to a high salary cap vs. a low salary cap?
