I'm sure you're actually referring to two guys. both of whom were fired from their last job for poor mgmt of those teams' front offices (fact)

that not only found a way to get RGIII, |
found a way? found a WAY??!! they had a couple of desperate conversations with the st Louis rams and gave them more by way of draft pick value that any team has ever given another team to move up in a draft. all told, it took 3 #1s (including the 2nd overall and 6th overall) and a high second round pick to eventually acquire the skinny, injury-prone rg3. here's hoping he's Steve young and Joe Montana, rolled into one.
yeah, they found a way. they bent over and told the rams first and rg3 second that they are desperate, please save them.
you better hope that this pays off immediately (winning season right away) and he becomes a star by year two because the bill will come due soon enough on this. next offseason, when they are sitting there with no first round pick, what their record is THIS year is going to have a whole lot to do if any buyers remorse exists. I know YOU don't have any NOW. I don't care. I care about this time NEXT year. |

Well, yes... in fact the leaders of BOTH sides are lawyers... this photo should instill tremendous confidence for both ownership, and the NFLPA members...

Latest DEVELOPMENT of the "BETWEEN A ROCK AND A HARD PLACE" soap opera.
If the NFL wins, things go as planned: "no collusion"
BUT if the NFLPA wins, Skins and Pukes owners lose a lot of alleged money (a billion???) with all other owners BUT we get our cap money back if it went to Court.
The options are there on the table AFTER the ruling takes place on this NFL v. NFLPA case.
It gets more interesting by the week. Not on most people's radars but definitely in MINE.  |

Ahhh, justice... the Redskins either get fined by the League for refusing to collude... or fined by the Government for colluding...
Only in America... is this a great country, or what? 
So, who thinks "the 29" are still patting Mara on the back? As that great American philosopher, Bugs Bunny, would say... "What a maroon..." |

| If we didn't collude w the other teams, hence our hefty cap space pillaging, why would we have to pay the government? Just because its from the pot every team is sharing? |

READ the article.
The Skins are CO-DEFENDANTS with all other 31 teams.
They are part of the NFL in case you had not noticed.
NOW, they (and the Pukes) must side with the people who screw them up in the first place. Problem is, once the NFLPA wins, the NFL pays the NFLPA but they might get their cap money back.
Interestingly, how messy is the situation getting for Mara and his gang???

I don't care how much Dan has to pay. I just want our cap back. |
