Re: Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess
 

**** Mara!! Redskins and Cowboys will be out for some NY midget ass!!

What's gonna be funny is when the NFL gives us Cap space back but then takes away picks over the G. Williams scandal as retaliation for arbitration.

Not sure how many times this has to be repeated, but we have already been cleared.

Wrong. We currently have been cleared but if new details come out in the future the NFL reserves the right to place a punishment at that point.

Yeah that isn't good for him

[quote=TheMalcolmConnection;903585]"I thought the penalties imposed were proper," Mara said. "What they did was in violation of the spirit of the salary cap. They attempted to take advantage of a one-year loophole, and quite frankly, I think they're lucky they didn't lose draft picks."

This literally made me LOL. EVERYTHING you said in there in no way relates to illegal activity or rule-breaking. "Spirit" and "loophole" are the two words he might have wanted to re-think. He just sounds stupid there.

Have we ever found out the person in charge of the whole vote or whatever it was that ended up costing us the money?[/quote]

I'd like to know what salary cap we violated the spirit of.

Re: Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess
 

Exactly. If we don't get SOMETHING for this, it's going to be a damn travesty.

key sentence in that piece: "What they did was in violation of the [B]spirit[/B] of the salary cap"

nothing written or tangible, just "in spirit". that shouldnt hold up in the court.

Re: Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess
 

What are the ramifications if its was found to be a bogus punishment? It obviously have hurt us in the free agency period. I would think they would have to give us the cap room back and then some type of cap "credit" for damages

I'm starting to hate the giants more than I hate the cowboys... What is going on? ****ing John Mara...

Mara is an arrogant A#S. IMO the fact that the NFL offices is in NY gives him to much influence on the Commissioner.

Just to add to reports of Wash/Dall appeal on sal cap pens ... NFLPA was secretly hoping for this as way to get more evidence of collusion.[/SIZE][/B]

Re: Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess
 

I hope the judge sees Mara's conflict of interest. I don't think he would be as emotional if he were not an owner in the NFC east. I think what he is REALLY concerned about is facing a Redskin team with a quality QB twice a year- expecially since he couldn't beat us last year WITHOUT a QB. You should be afraid Mara - we DOMINATED you by 2 scores last year. Please say something else to the media. LOL

Re: Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess
 

So what do they do with the redistributed $$$ if they give the penalty $$$ back to us/DAL? Most teams have probably already spent that $$$.
