You're wrong. The owners want to keep the cap. Very much so. The floor/salary system strains a few owners, but not many, and the owners very much like having a structured budget system.

But there are problems with what is in/out of the cap calculation, and a number of other issues separating the two sides.

If you have any support for the statement that the owners want to abandon the cap, I'd love to see it because I haven't seen anybody report that.
