Snyder didn't get filthy rich by being stupid.

You cannot run from the salaray cap and you cannot give away $7 million dollar signing bonuses like souvenir pens. You've got LaVar, Portis, Brunell, Coles, Randy Thomas, Trotter, Springs, Washington, Jansen, Griffin, Taylor is coming up. Didn't someone post the salary cap numbers for the Skins somewhere, you can't keep deferring money to everyone because at some point it all comes due. What Snyder is banking on is that he can win a SB before that happens, because at some point he'll have to cut most of these guys.
I love having an owner that will go out and get players, but every offseason it's us throwing dollars at free agents like Michael Irvin in Scores.
Please don't use the words Snyder and "plan and manage" in the same sentence. He is a very shrewd businessman, witness how profitable he's made the franchise, and he does pump that money into the team rather than his pockets, but I'm a football fan and there has been little rhyme or reason to any of his moves since 2000. If there was, why have we had five coaches in five seasons? What kind of plan is that?
