ROUnd 1-5 Draft picks for current year and next year may be traded.

NEW OWNERs : If a new owner takes over a team that is under .500 (last year's record or current year if July 1st or later), he cannot trade his 1st round draft pick for one full season, or until surpassing .500 (July 1st or later record). this rule will take effect starting in 1970.

NEW OWNERS: All new owner trades are subject to commish/trade committee approval for one full season.

Commish has final authority in all league matters.

* Financials *

There is a $30 Million Cash Maximum per franchise.

All teams start with 45,000 seats and stadium seating may be expanded in 1,000 seat increments (max 5) @ $30 Million per increment.

If any team runs out of cash, it can support a payroll level equal exactly to its projected revenue for the year. If entering the offseason with no money and a payroll higher than the projected revenue for the next year, the team must, prior to the first game of the following season, trade enough salary away to become financially sound (get your payroll at or under your projected revenue).

Furthermore, any team that is "in the red" cannot execute any trades that would add more salary to their payroll. All trades must be even in salary, or the "in the red" team must be trading away more salary, lowering the team payroll.
