Id buy those tickets. A place where Mara's daddys money doesnt automatically protect him. I would like to see him squirm.

Having said that, I dont see this going anywhere. The fines they used against the skins and boys are not cap related in terms of total money spent. They were smart in how they went after them even though we all know the real reason was a chance to lower the spending of the two highest spending owners.

The fact is half the teams spent more than 123 mil that year. So I dont see how that stand up in court. Even if Doty, a labor friendly judge, does agree with the NFLPA, the court that will take up the appeal is a business friendly court. The collusion charges would have to make it through both courts to win, and I dont see that happening.
