Quote from: Jesse on January 30, 2026, 02:07:21 PMWe obviously don't have full transparency (because CFL), but I doubt the CFLPA has full discretion to do whatever the want with the new money.https://www.cfl.ca/2026/01/23/2025-season-yields-10m-in-league-wide-revenue-growth/
That said, I don't think they're concerned with the minimum salary. They want to represent the members who are already part of the league (hence the veteran bump you mentioned). I think they're less worried about players who haven't played a snap yet.

Quote from: theaardvark on January 30, 2026, 05:28:33 PMMany of the OLine we lost to $$$ did not have ties to this community, and "moved home". I can see not spending $SMS on that. But if Wallace is already here, we can spend top dollars less the home town discount, and keep him forever. I'm all for that, I can't see any CFL player getting more than 3 years in this day and age with the cap being so flexible, but for as long as the CBA will be in force, sure...
