As Skins fans, we came as up close and personal to the corruption within the NFL as anyone when they applied the cap penalty on us and the Cowboys. Not only was it proof that these owners colluded against the players, but it was incredible that they let the teams know literally minutes before Free Agency in 2012 started. The fact that it was a divisional rival who was the driving force behind it all was just the icing on a big fat disgusting cake of evil.
I haven't ever looked at the NFL the same, to be honest. None of the recent events have surprised me at all.
Yeah, I lost a lot of faith in the NFL over that one, for sure. That hurt a lot, and gave credence to the idea that refs favor certain teams, not sure why the NFL decided to go that route. Really strange, when you think about it objectively.
