yes sir. I guess I am. Nothing infuriates me more than anowner who really doesn't give a #### about anything more than the bottom line in his ledger. A perfect situation is Pittsburgh. You can NOT tell me that the Pirates wouldn't have more asses in the seats if they were winners. Yet that SOB cries poor-mouth because the fans won't support us. And I can't build a winner because we're a small market. Bull####. Really?? Isn't this the same market that has the ummmmmmmmm Penguins? And what's the name of their football team? Oh Yeah!!! The Steelers. They've won a couple, haven't they? So if you can't afford it, sell it to someone who can and get the #### out of the way!
I want to rethink my reply in one aspect. That is the tiger/sheep analogy. I don't think that is a valid analogy. Sheep indicates an ignorance of the process through an innocence factor that just doesn't exist here. I think the more proper analogy would be tiger/jackal. Because these owners know the process they just want somebody to make the kill and then they come along and feed on the carcass.

Shh..this will further solidify The Danny's thinking he can buy a championship.
Baseball salaries 2009;
Yankees; $200,000,000
Phillies; $120,000,000
Marlins; $36,000,000
There simply is not the room for the kind of disparity in the NFL that is necessary to 'buy' a title. If you're in baseball, you look at what the winners do; spend WAY more than everyone else.
In the NFL, look at what the winners do. Better teams by knowing football better. Same money.
Granted, Snyder is using the Yankee model; let the cream rise to the top. league wide, then try to buy it. It just doesn't work.

This is a resource argument. Other sports leagues have made it possible for Pittsburgh to compete with NY in terms of resources. Baseball has not.
2009 Yankee payroll; $200,000,000
Pirates; $48,000,000
2008 Giants; $115,000,000
2008 Steelers; $128,000,000
The Yankees earn something like $200,000,000 a year in local radio alone.

Yankees still spending
Just a little tidbit. The Phillies are not spending anymore money on the team. The N.Y. Yankees are still spending money to improve the team. MLB is a mess...

Since the Phillies aren't spending, maybe they should lend some money to the Phyers so they can put a hockey club on the ice.

Here is a typical Deadskins fans response to that. How many cups has the Crapitals won? Maybe the Nats should packup and leave town before they have another 100 loss season.
