I feel like these shouldn't be a secret/surprise and boy was I surprised this morning. @Steve maybe these should be added to the manual? It would certainly help budgeting player and manager salaries.

Ken_Kennilworth Joined: 11/26/2019 Posts: 400 Charleston Hawks II.1	I believe the franchise fees are as follows: L 1 18,500,000 annual L 2 13,500,000 annual L 3 8,500,000 annual L 4 2,500,000 annual L 5 & L 6, no fees i've climbed from bottom to the top and am now settling down to less time-eating levels. it appears there is a $5 million fee increase between the 3 top levels...meanwhile, TV & Radio Revenue increase $3 million per level...so in other words, there is a net $2 million charge per level when advancing from level 3 to 2 to 1...put another way, that's 1,666.67 seats to sell per home game to just stay even (2000000 /80 /15)...that has to be paid before considering increases to salary for players and coaches that also go along with advancing.
