If the game isn't being played you are subjected to constant commercialism, etc. Once you keep that in mind then the Jones/Snyder thing isn't so hard to fathom. To them money is the bottom line. They rely on you to care about things like the rivalry, etc, to keep the money flowing.

You said it, not me.

If it is about the money than would you say that it's not about winning?

If it is about money than what does winning have to do with anything? If it's about money than what does a competitive rivalry have to do wiith anything?

Unfortunately I believe that you're right when you say the rivalry is nothing to them because it's about their bottom line.

...It's not out of the question though to say that you can put the rivalry and winning in the same category and THAT is why I'm really disgruntled with the fact that Snyder and Jones are best pals.
