Man, I am getting tired of this! But it does seem encouraging, and Maske is pretty tied in to this stuff. Tags is pushing to fix things--wonder if the owners will find a way to agree? My advice to Danny-boy and the "rich" (as if any NFL owner is poor!) owners is to accept an agreement, and find a new loop-hole down the road. It's like campaign finance--there's always a way for the special interests to fund their guy, no matter what the law tries. Here, it's the same thing--Danny and his team are super-creative in finding ways to pump monies back into the team. Do they really think they won't find a way to do it even with restrictions on cash-over-cap?
Make the deal, damn it!

as long as the deal gets done i dont care how long it takes. Its crucial to the league and more importantly the redskins this year. but i have to agree it is getting old.
plus if a deal is reached and after the realse of aarington thats like an extra 14mil. in cap room

I think Snyder should do what is best for the Redskins long term--not just go along to get along. If the other owners don't like the cash over cap situation they need to tighten up their accounting rules and disallow amortization of signing bonuses. I hope he takes a hard line. It galls me on several levels to think that some of these small-change owners--everyone a layabout or goof off--will in effect become shareholders in the Redskins.
I am willing to suffer another year so that the Redskins don't get ripped off.

I can definitely relate to you wanting Snyder to take a hard line on this one. He's a business man, a good one at that, and I think he'll do what's best for the team and the NFL. But to take a hard line just to take it is unlikely.
Unfortunately, to suffer one more year would hurt Snyder's product and I think that's the last thing he would want to do.

Mort was saying on ESPNNews the owners will vote for it at their meeting on Tuesday, which may extend into Wednesday. I think he said one sticking point is going to be the whole "cash over cap" thing with the have and have-not owners battling each other over it.
I still fail to understand why teams who aren't managed as well and don't bring in high levels of resources should be given money by teams that make a profit because they are marketed well.

I just heard Jerry Jones and he sounds like he dose not like what the offer is on the table from the PA. Just hearing what he said i can see the owners that are in small market teams voting for this if teams like the Cowboys ,Redskins and the other high end teams don't give away the farm! I don't see this getting done!!!!
