Do Salary Cap Troubles Await the Redskins?

salary cap hell? pfft

too many unknowns to guess if the skins will be in SCH.

If the skins were division leaders with a clinched playoff spot, we would be talking about how we could be a dynasty since our core quality players are in their mid 20's.

here are two factors to consider.

first, dannyboy knows money. the guy hides billions from the irs, he isnt going to have a probably manipulating the salary cap.

and second, the wild card...
the labor contract between the nfl and players association ends after the draft in 2008. also, under the current contract, there is no salary cap in 2007.

under the current contract,there is revenue sharing. but the highest grossing teams like the skins and cowboys make alot of money that is not shared with the other teams. the players association wants the unshared money shared and a percentage funneled down to the players salaries.
dannyboy, faceliftmonster and the other owners of profitable teams dont want to share that revenue with the owners that dont give a shit.
and
the big spending teams wouldnt mind seeing the cap go so they can revert to the old days of dominance.

so, the nfl and players association reaching a new deal with a salary cap isnt a done deal just yet.

btw, i think the salary cap is great, alleviates alot of the shit baseball and hockey going through, i hope they find a way to work it out. but if they dont, dannyboy is going to buy the baddest mother fuckers money can buy

please excuse my grammer, i just got home from a long and entertaining evening

If Snyder does work it out, it will just reassert my point that the Skins are the worst run franchise in football. How will he work it out? By taking away the money he gave to players. That's right. That's what restructuring is. You give a guy a contract and then you make him sign one for a lot less money so he can stay on the team.

If I were Chris Samuels I would tell this team to "Go to hell, you can cut me" Samuels will find a job. The Redskins deserve to have all this dead space. They run this thing as bad as I have ever seen anything run. Why? Not because they spend so much money, but because they don't win. Plain and simple. They spend money every year and for what? 10 wins...in 2 seasons.
