Hey, that's pretty neat. Look at Detroit's line versus Arizona's line. Yikes.

Yeah, thanks terrapin. I'm gonna bookmark and visit often. I had no idea that there was a $180,000,000.00 difference between the top and bottom salaries.

This is an interesting tool but only really tells part of the story. I think the better determinant of how well money is spent is not raw ranking but rather dollars spent per win. Another way to look at eficiency is instead of looking solely at team salary, look at team net revenue, ie. how many dollars does a team earn or lose per win, all earnings and expenditures included. Not sure how you would calculate the latter number, but I think it would be interesting.
