There's a lot that goes into it. Brad and Matt are better at the financials, but years ago we evened every market. Basically, the easiest way to increase your overall budget is to win AND keep your team in the black while you do it. Winning brings in playoff revenue, increases you cash on hand if you're profitable ($10m cash each offseason), increaeses fan interest and loyalty, which fills the seats, which enables you to increase ticket prices, increases merchandise sales and gives you larger media contracts.

Old saying goes... "Just win baby..."

Dammit! I knew there was a catch. We have a high attendance, perhaps I just don't charge enough... although hard to justify an increase now.
