The cap isn't arbitrarily determined. It is spelled out in the collective bargaining agreement (CBA). The current CBA set the cap at 51.2 percent...
You wouldn't eliminate the amount, rather you would emphasize the %cap rather than $ per year. So if cap is 100m, you'd say Curry signed a 35%...
While the cap isn't hard, there is still an actual single cap amount each year. The %cap would simply be a percentage of that amount regardless of...
Except I don't think anyone has actually suggested to knowingly undertip to "protest" the tipping system. So its really a strawman. And as far as...
As revenues are increasing, the salary cap is increasing and salaries are exploding as a result. What once was a max contract in dollar terms is...
What I meant is that the restaurant can pay a wage as low as $2.13/hour and the rest has to come from tips. But yes you are right that the law...
The way tips should work is that they are a reward for above and beyond service. Normal, expected service should receive no tip. Bad service...
Again, other bartenders have defended Roberson. So at least some of them are saying that what he did was reasonable. That being that case, it is...
Using this logic, then someone in the Jim Crow era could be saying: While I understand where you're coming from, the whole "deal with it that's...
Except the "service" we are talking about is handing over a $500 bottle over the bar counter. Not sure that is worth $75 fee. He said he already...

While I understand what you are saying, I think you are selling Curry short. Also I think the whole idea of rating players based on who can...
Regardless of his previous tip, the main point stands. If all a bartender does is sell and hand you a bottle in a couple minutes of "service", is...
Except that this is the problem. Everyone is criticizing Roberson but it's not obvious that he was a bad tipper. I can see his POV. For Roberson,...
If tipping can't really be defended on the basis of rewarding superior service (because research shows it is based on race and looks), then at...
The point of tipping in the minds of some proponents is that it rewards and incentivizes better service. Research shows otherwise. It was a...
There has been research done. "Although tipping culture may be beneficial to servers, the practice isn’t exactly fair. As Freakonomics radio host...
Here is another way to conduct this thought experiment. Imagine rosters for all teams are empty. Experts come up with a list of top 30 players....
The discussion is more about who is unanimously considered worthy of a supermax right now if all teams could theoretically sign said players for...
What makes KAT unanimous but not AD though?
