But then, after you given millions to the likes of has-beens like Deion Sanders, Bruce Smith and Mark Carrier in the 2000 free agency period, everything's an improvement.
They are STILL looking back to 2000. Isn't this six years later? Didn't we only sign 2 FA's of consequence last year (Patten, Rabach) and the aquisitions from the previous year have been huge (Washington, Griffin, Springs)? Wasn't 2000 Danny's first or second year as an owner? Has he EVER made the Smith/Carrier/Sanders mistake again?
Yes he's aggresive - so what? Have you noticed, however, Mr. Banks that the Skins are attempting to first sign their own UFA's before they hit the open market this time around (sure, their not big names - but it is a commitment unseen before)?
Man the SI guys just LOVE to hate on Snyder.

I was thinking the same thing. When you read, it's like you want to check to see if the article is dated 2000.
