I guess my problem with that statement is, we're always hearing about how insane we are with cap wizardry, so why do we even care about cap damage? I mean, we were told at one point by all the media blabbermouths we wouldn't even be able to field a team due to cap hell, and we ended up fine.

If the front office ever basically said, "we sure would have liked to have done X, but we couldn't because we screwed ourselves on AA and Lloyd", but I don't ever recall us being hosed by the cap in a way that limited our strategy for personnel moves... maybe I'm just blocking it out?
