Lol. My feelings about the Giants in this case are based on Graziano and others reporting about where this stuff is coming from. And I'm sure I'd hate Danny and Jerry too, if I were the owner of a different team. But whatever--the Meadowlands is an awful place and I don't envy anyone who must go there more than once a year.

Anywho, my impression is that the owners of the teams in the NFL (ie management) acted behind the scenes in concert to agree to keep labor costs down. Call that what you will. For what it's worth, I have no doubt that Danny gave his word and agreed at the time. He then reneged on his promise and now, 2 years later and a day before free agency, he's getting his payback from the fellas he crossed. Is that not what happened here?

I'm pissed because I am a skins fan also because of the hypocrisy of the league claiming some nonsense about "competitiveness". We were 5-11 last year and have been to the playoffs only 3 times since Danny bought the team. Yeah, the league is really scared that we're going to become the 27 Yankees. BS. It's about money and the egos of billionaires.

Whatever. To be honest, it's a kind of fun distraction in the offseason, except that it cost us 36 mil in cap space. But the cap has never stopped us before, so I'm not that worried.

(PS I lived in NYC for 20 years. The only time I root for the Vagiants is when they play the cowboys. Then I root for a tie and lots of injuries.)
