BAD idea. Teams with owners like Jerry Jones who is spending profits like a madman will be screwing his players over. They bring him a ton of revenue and it's not their fault if he chooses to drop a billion dollars on a stadium or gets himself fined for a punt-blocking TV screen above the field (somehow he escaped any responsibility with that blunder).

Even for the Skins this year, the stadium is being renovated and that will cut into the profits for the year. Snyder's likely not handing the contractors cash at the start of the job, he'll be paying off a construction loan/note in the near future for the work. Should the players be penalized for the owner's decisions on how to use the revenue and affect his profit?
