Owner Funds

[mjarz02]

I find it pretty silly that owners start with so little money in the available funds. Even if you create a new owner and they are a 'financial mogul' they only start with 7mil.

I really wanted build a new stadium for the vikes but the funds make it pretty much impossible if you want to sign FAs even though I have plenty of cap space. There should be a slider for available funds.

I don't know, I'm kinda ok with a new owner coming into a franchise and not being able to relocate an entire team or build a new stadium from their first year. Maybe after 2-3 years then yes.

I see your point but the Wilf's just put up over half a billion to build a new stadium and it's impossible to recreate that here. It's all about having the option.

I agree. The absurdity of a team "running out of money" is a fallacy and it's made worse that you can't do a damn thing if you've got negative funds at the end of a season. No free agent signings, no retaining your own players, nothing. It's so unrealistic and I can't believe that it wasn't addressed in the last year.

Yeah... professional sports teams have never gone bankrupt...
