The Legend
It is obvious the owners don't have unity of purpose.
For every Rooney or Richardson that tries to negotiate reasonable deals for talent you have other owners like Jones or Snyder who consistently inflate salaries and often pay top dollar to mediocre talent.
The owners were going to lose in court, I think everyone could see that coming.
So, the question of how to divy up the large pie of NFL dollars still comes down to one thing for the owners - being able to show restraint.
The TV money is likely to continue to be split, any savings is going to come through the negotiation of sane contracts.
When the commissioner talks about getting control of costs the contract secured by Albert Haynesworth with $41M in guarantees sticks in my mind.
