cap contracts effect exactly goodness last money scary situation sure thank trying year
Thank goodness we're not where we were last year or the year before. Because it has to be a very, very scary situation to be way over the cap right now and trying to redo contracts and get your money right, and yet you're not exactly sure what effect the CBA is going to have on it.
