The cap and floor model is far more workable when revenue disparity is modest.  NFL teams are all basically within $100M with the exception of of one team (Dallas).    With the disparity present in MLB, a modest ceiling would promote huge profits for large market teams and a floor presents a rather substantial challenge to profitability for small teams.  The players are going to fight a ceiling that promotes competition because they want those excess profits paid to free agent contracts.  The small-market owners are going to have a real problem with a substantial ceiling.  This is a tough one to get agreement on.
