Wow, this team's finances are bad. $120K free for next season? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I am financially challenged.

Sell your trailer and move into a tent? :P

EDIT: I should say I PM'd some helpful stuff so I didn't just hang him out. Always good to have The Hitman around!

I can give you some pointers when the offseason hits, avoid cutting anyone that has a contract past next season until the offseason hits, otherwise you'll have multiple years worth of dead cap all applied to next season.

You really don't have anyone you need to re-sign so that's a positive and you're projected to have 65,156,528 in cap space next season. The financial situation isn't as bad as you may have thought.

So no tent? That's good I'm just used to seeing bigger numbers and, like I said, I am financially challenged.

This is as good a time as any to remind everyone to re-sign all of the players they want to keep long term before the player attitude development is implemented. I'm still not sure how that's supposed to work.

Basically players roughly around 75-80 will expect to start and become unhappy if they do not play or are not starters. When a player becomes unhappy they will not negotiate a contract to re-sign them. This would leave you with only the option to play them, trade them, or let them leave via free agency.

Is there a 'happy' meter?

No meter, but it will show in the details on the myteam page. I think it should be next to where it says a player is probably, questionable, etc.
