I was speaking to Manas earlier about contracts, and noticed max deals are 7 years, not 5 like the NBA. Obviously, it looks like I'm trying to bring this up before I have to reup any of my guys, but is there a way to shorten max deals? Even if it's just manual, and no one is allowed to max a guy up to 7 years.
This can go into affect after next year, so it doesn't seem like I'm trying to do this for myself, but I have to imagine shorter max extensions will make it easier to trade and control your salary cap for the future. Plus, we try to emulate the NBA, and that is the current max deal.
Curious what everyone thinks....

I dont want to do any more work during FA. This wouldnt take much extra time, but FA is already such a huge pain in the ass.

Not trying to be a pain, but if someone said 5 year max, instead of full max, is it a pain in the ass to input that? I don't have or never used the game, so I'm not familiar with it. Just trying to put something out there, if it's a huge pain and causes extra work, don't sweat it.

Aaron, Im all for reality, but there is a MAX button, and I wouldnt want to delete the last 2 years on the contract. Like I said, it wouldnt take much time, but its that much more time that I dont want to spend. FA is a huge pain in the ass, and if I add any more responsibilities to it itll be even more annoying.

More increases per year, and a 7th year.

I think it would be a good idea. It would help a lot as far as managing the cap and allowing more free agents to hit the market possibly. Maybe someone can do FA for spence that it's not that annoying?. Not sure how comfortable he would feel with that though.

I would do it for an upgrade. I would just input the information and you run the days.

I think I may run into GMs having trust issues with whoever I select to do it.

Yeah i can see that too. That's why i said i would only put the bids in but you would run the actual days and you can just look over things to be sure. Plus, you can put a pw so nobody checks the behind the scene ratings. Just a suggestion. Just like the idea of guys hitting the market sooner than later.

yeah, give martinez the password. That sarcasm is unwarranted, and I'm assuming it's because you liked to relate "loud-mouthness" to "cheating." Ask Spencer, I might bitch, complain, annd piss people off but I'm among the most loyal. Besides, you're just a rookie compared to the other guys.
