Accurate salaries flat won't work with the way OOTP handles finances.

Actual 1985 average team salary $10.6 million
OOTP 1985 ticket price $7.25
OOTP 1985 average attendance 24,547
OOTP 1985 average ticket revenue $17.8 million
OOTP 1985 average media contract $9.9 million
OOTP 1985 (rough) average merchandising revenue $8.0 million

So you end up with an average team at around $35 million in revenues and $10 million in salaries if you use accurate salary info. It would be nice to have, since greatly over-inflated salaries take away from the feel of a historical sim IMO...
