As if we needed more reasons to hate the Redskins and Cowboys. The Washington Post reports that Danny Boy Snyder and Jerry "facelift from hell" Jones are leading a consortium of NFL owners who want to strip the league of its revenue sharing agreements, moving toward an eventual doing away with the salary cap. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A57668-2005Jan7.html
Great. I'd love to see the 'Skins v. 'Boys games, currently a joke, turn into a version of MLB's horrific Red Sox v. Yankees spend-a-rama. Danny Boy could spend $500 million (that's five extra large ones) to wrangle the All Pro team to play at the sans-soul Fed Ex Field, also known in some circles as Fed-Skin Field. We could all cheer through the endless boner-pill commercials while the teams with the biggest marketing machines and TV markets took home the Super Bowl. Oh yeah. The beauty of the NFL, which is unique among pro sports these days, is that small market, low buck teams like the Steelers and Colts can build bad ass squads by actually focusing on football things, like player and coach development. Danny Boy, on the other hand, opens his mega-wallet each year to hire a new coach and a host of overpaid, aging, free agents and can only sniffle while he gets a perpetually 5-11 or thereabouts squad.
Who Dey!
