The only issue the owners should be concerned about and want to see changed is the rookie contract structure...everything else is perfectly reasonable the way it is.
your entire post is whats laughable. the owners pay the players millions of dollars, YEARS IN ADVANCE, for work not yet performed. The owners also get billion dollar loans to pay for stadiums, hoping fans will come in and pay to see the team play. the owners take on enormous financial risk.
