Explains the funding rule and why it is a big problem. Basically unless you're loaded like Jerry jones or Jimmy Haslam the escrow requirements will start to kill franchises where the owners are less opulently loaded. Florio is getting it wrong because it is not a CBA rule it is a league rule the owners voted into existence back a while ago.
It’s a stupid rule and they need to get rid of it although I’m sure they voted it in so they could limit the amount of guaranteed money.
You can go to live in France, but you cannot become a Frenchman. You can go to live in Germany or Turkey or Japan, but you cannot become a German, a Turk, or a Japanese. But anyone, from any corner of the Earth, can come to live in America and become an American
