I was thinking the same thing yesterday, so its nice that you and RealGM are thinking ahead, predicting what we want to hear.
As I was watching TV yesterday afternoon waiting for trade announcements, I was treated to analysis by my least-favorite commentator, Stephen A Smith. Anyway, somebody must have sat him down and prepped him with some rudimentary knowledge of the salary cap, because until the very end, he didn't make the massive mistakes I would have predicted on the subject. I thought at the time, "If ESPN is taking the time to teach this stuff to Stephen A, then they have to realize its importance. I wonder if they'd have Larry on?" I then came back down to earth, and realized this is generic, whiz-bang ESPN, and we RealGMers are still a very small and peculiar audience. We won't see a "Top Ten Financial Moves of the Day" anytime soon.
