The NFL Bylaws are relevant, and they aren't going to help the Skins at all.

You and I will simply disagree, because the specific language states "ANY CLUB" may bring suit, so while I understand your point, IF a club felt that there was a violation of the salary cap rules, these documents give them some level of standing to bring it up. That makes the point I highlighted relevant to the discussion.
Overall, this is like the CBA negotiation thread, no ones view is going to change, and in the end we will all have to see how the arbitrator rules.
I love these discussions, but they get pretty line in the sandish after a while, and I think this one has reached that point
