Well at least the cap will keep going up due to the massive tv contracts.
2006-2011*CBS ($622.5 million/yr)FOX ($712.5 million/yr)ESPN ($1.1 billion/yr)NBC ($650 million/yr)$3.1 billion/yr
as you can see that Sunday night football game on NBC is bringing in an extra $650 in revenue so that in turn helps push the cap up.
