Redskins, Cowboys could go “nuclear” over cap mess

In the past the Super Bowl winner has open the NFL season.

Wow, where the heck have you been? You come on here after it's announced the two teams are taking it to arbitration and make weird outragous comments of how no one agrees the Redskins and Cowboys are right in any of this or are siding with them. Several of us post links to media personell who all agree with the two teams and think this is all hogwash and how they believe in the long run the two teams will win this arbitration and your no where to be found. No comment. Simply ignored. Then you come to .... give a PSA about how in the past the SB winner has opened the NFL season?

I Giantone, hope you've had a nice couple of days. Just wanted to point out your were wrong by the way, its actually totally backwards in the fact the majority of the media and fans belive the Skins and Boys are right in all this. But I'll give you your props... the clueless owners belive the two teams are wrong in what they did and have amnesia in regards to their own collussion.

Hey! I already claimed gategate. I can't link to it but look in my previous posts. :D

I know this will be hard to stomach. I'm sorry. After clicking the link wait a few seconds to get aclimated then read the OP post. He does bring up a good point. Mara wanted to stick it to the Redskins and Cowboys so bad he chose not to lower the CAP by 3-7mill per team which would have saved the NFL 96-224mill for the one year in order to simply fine the Redskins and Cowboys 46 mill.

I meant more as the Giants getting to play the Cowboys, of course I know the SB winner gets to play the first game genius.

....how is that more profitable then lets say opening against the Saints or Greenbay?

You will be receiving a cease and desist letter very soon from my attorney, Mr. JoeRedskin.

You've made a very powerful enemy, friend.

What in the world would entice those teams to vote against the cap penalties? They received money from it. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. Doesn't mean there is some other deep, dark secret thing that hasn't come out yet. As matter of fact, what does keep getting revealed continues to make the NFL look even worse.

If you keep arguing about it, it may become Gategategate.

as long as its not SwingingGate

The Failure That Was the Redskins' Swinging Gate (http://www.aolnews.com/2009/12/22/the-failure-that-was-the-redskins-swinging-gate/)

The problem with this is that Goodell and/or the Management Council Executive Committee overstepped their authority by modifying the salary cap as a penalty, but the owners as a group have more authority. Goodell can fine up to $500k, suspend individuals or take draft picks. The MCEC reports to Goodell and has the authority to negotiate with the NFLPA on behalf of the NFL.

The Executive Committee however - made up of ownership reps of all 30 teams - can impose whatever penalties they want as long as 24 votes support it. The Commissioner reports to the Executive Committee. Since the two teams were asked to leave the room, I'm guessing the meeting yesterday wasn't an actual Exec Committee meeting, just a show of hands - but it doesn't bode well. Basically, there's nothing to be discussed in arbitration if the Exec Committee imposes penalties.

Plus, if the two teams involved fight it, Goodell does have the authority to take away draft picks - his nuclear option is no RG3.
