The cellphone trick he pulls is just hiliarious!...too funny...Snyder's not so bad.

It's a rich rivalry for Dallas Cowboys, Redskins owners: Jerry Jones and Daniel Snyder are friendly rivals

Well, kudos to you for trying to post some light hearted material. As you can see it's been killed by the debbie downers. Waahhhh - waahhhhh

Debbie Downers? Good one. I thought you said Snyder was the problem this morning. I guess this afternoon, that changed?

That was a different thread. This one started off more as a joke and quickly turned into your typical Snyder hating 101.

First it was just kind of pointing out the close relationship that he has with Jerry Jones and that fact that they go on vacations with each other and share vacation homes between the families. Snyder also makes a point to sit next to Jerry Jones during the owners meetings too.

It's great that cowboys and redskins can get along but really...I possess some MAJOR distaste for Jerry Jones and the whole cowboys organization. Hearing that it's just a business that they're pals just kind of rubs salt in the wound that the cowboys are more competitive than we are.

I thought others would be disgusted by the fact that Snyder pretty much loves him some cowboys...the rivalry doesn't mean much to him at the top.

From the bottom I don't take solace in finding that out.

Meh, you can be friends with someone but also be respectful rivals.

The league ownership circle is pretty tight, there's only 32 of them in the world. They have to work together on a lot of issues and naturally there's going to be some relationships there even between rivals. That's not to say Danny doesn't want to own them on gamedays.

It's fun to hate on people you don't know, but for all we know Jerry could be a decent guy. Just saying. And why are the Cowboys more competitive than we are if Snyder and Jones are pals??

But if you have a competitive rivalry there's just some things that you don't do with your rival.

Vacationing with them should be one of them. What other thing can you do with someone that is more initimate than vacationing with them???...Driving someone to the airport pales in the comparasion to that.

If are constantly getting worked by your competitive rival and still so happy to see them something is wrong. In that same position I would not be all smiles with my competitive arch rival.

...If I was Jerry Jones I would because he has nothing to uneasy about...I can at least see why he doesn't care that they are such good friends.

...like Jerry Jones says in the article..."The numbers are there"

The rivalry is pretty much gone dude. It is pretty hard to maintain rivalry status when it has been one sided for such a long time, plus it hasn't meant that much like when Gibbs and Landry were going at it. You have to remember, it is pretty much a business anymore, and that in itself has hurt both the college and pro game. If the game isn't being played you are subjected to constant commercialism, etc. Once you keep that in mind then the Jones/Snyder thing isn't so hard to fathom. To them money is the bottom line. They rely on you to care about things like the rivalry, etc, to keep the money flowing.

Dude, have you ever played a game, fantasy football, etc., with friends? Have you ever competed hard with your friends to win yet you remain friends?

The fact is, Snyder's friendship with Jerry Jones does not mean that they can't feel a rivalry. In fact, their friendship might make the rivalry more intense between them. Friendship of a certain type may do that.
