i thought of something like this:

you are allowed to extend the contract of one player per season by only one year. this extension will cost you an in crease of say 10 - 20% of that player's salary. for example:

if i wanted to extend carter.

at the moment, he is A1 4000 but will RFA in the off-season. if i increase him to 4400 (that is with a 10% increase), i would have him at an A1 4400 going into 09-10.

like i said, this is something that briefly crossed my mind with not a lot of intense thought put into it.

makes our league more 'keeper' on the spectrum.
