Today is a good day. For anybody who heard the Steve Szaban show on espn radio, you know what i'm talking about. Don Banks just got undressed by Szaban. Banks is not a HOF voter but admittedly is good friends w/ Peter King, Zimmerman, etc. Some highlights are:

Banks was upset at a statement made by Snyder recently. Snyder released a 2 sentence statement after Monk recently was not voted in. Banks went on to say Snyder's statement is going to hurt Monk's chances to get into the HOF. Banks inferred that his HOF voter friend felt that this "statement" is going to set Art Monk's chances back as well.

Szaban blasted him, saying this is not unprecedented by owners, but due to the media hatred of Snyder, he is admitting that outside factors having nothing to do w/ Monk's play is affecting voting. Banks could not deny that it plays a role (he tried backstepping but it didn't work).

Basically, Szaban let this guy have it (and he is a regular on the show). We all know it, but it was good to hear it on the radio. I would pay money to hear Szaban get a hold of Peter King.
