I guess you can chalk this one up as more anti-Skins rhetoric, with a hint of credibility.

Yeah it struck me as a very narrow-minded piece. He absolutely trashes Snyder's cap management based solely on the assumption that the league will enter 2006 without a new CBA. Typical shoddy writing. Absolutely no foresight to mention the various scenarios that may play out, such as a CBA extension. And as usual, journalists show very little understanding of basic business; negotiations tend to go into the 11th hour for a reason. The writer seems to assume that since the two sides are far apart on CBA negotiations in the here and now, that there will be no CBA extension. It's irresponsible to trash someone based solely on that one possibility, especially when that possibility isn't even the most likely to actually play out.
It's your typical Chicken Little piece. OMG THE SKY IS FALLING!!!
