I wan't sure where to put this but since the first thing I thought about upon reading it was baseball, I'll put it here and if someone thinks it should be moved, then okay. However...
It seems as though an English rugby team (champions, no less) was just fined 5.36 million pounds and had 35 points deducted from their season's standings because they had breached salary cap regulations in three seasons.
"Premiership Rugby introduced their salary cap in 1999 to ensure the financial viability of all clubs and the competition.
The regulations are also designed to control inflationary pressures on clubs' costs and provide a level playing field for clubs and a competitive Premiership."

Change baseball's approach, anyone? Maybe not as many losses.
