    Hah!

    Spend like drunken sailors then act like "who us, you can't do that to us!!!"

    Hmm, wonder if we make a play for Miles Austin if the Cowboys are that hard against the cap.

    Good for Washington. A bull**** gentleman's agreement not to overspend during the uncapped year is not their problem. It was a great idea, in fact. Every team in the NFL had a get out jail free card and chose to do nothing. Not their problem. I wonder if Dallas is going to join in?

    I wonder if a delay In F.A. would help us out by giving us time to negotiate with our F.A.?

    They already took it to arbitration and lost, and the NFLPA filed a lawsuit and lost. If the standard that needs to be upheld is that it would cause irreparable harm to the team, I really can't see how they could possibly prove that. This is the kind of sniveling, limp-dick **** you'd come to expect from Daniel Snyder.

    Not a Snyder or Jones fan by any means but neither of these teams did anything wrong. They did not break any rules in the uncapped year and every single contract they negotiated was OK'd by the league office. The league did not make a complaint until after the new CBA was signed, they couldn't. If they did the players union would have filed a lawsuit for collusion and know what ? they would have won.

    Goodell is a Rat fink, Smith the head of the NFLPA knew about this and kept his mouth shut. Snyder and Jones stayed quiet because if they sued they in event, would be sueing their other 30 business partners. You see 30 partners had a handshake agreement to keep a lid on the uncapped year. Snyder and Jones did not agree with them.

    Its all complete BS and like I said, if the NFL, who agreed and signed off on every deal the Cowboys and Redskins made, would have thrown up a red flag BEFORE the new CBA was signed the NFLPA would have sued the pants off the league and every owner in the league and won.

    Smith is the biggest a**h*** out there. If he's truly looking out for the players, he'd have nixed this in the first place, and don't kid yourselves, it's something they all knew and agreed on (owners, Commish, Smith)... This is just what Smith wants to happen, for the owners to start breaking things down between each other...what a tool...

    Smith's goal as the head of the NFLPA has always been for political gain. He has never been about the players.

    Smith is an idiot. No way he wins an election after he messed up the NFL fans interests.

    If he didn't agree to this the cap would have been lower than the year before and it hurts him.

    Chiefs will give their top 2nd round pick to 9ers in this draft and a mid round pick in 2014. Midround sounds like a 3rd or 4th. 9ers did pretty decent. Now I hear they are going after Revis with those additional picks. LOL, I love the pre draft drama. Doubt Bowe gets out of KC now.

    Instead of being little Napoleon, acting like a spoiled ****ing child and wasting everyones time maybe Danny should spend a few seconds getting his field so it is NFL worthy and he does not have players blowing out knees on painted ****ing dirt.

    What a little ***** he is.
