Snyder's petty enough to sue little old ladies over season tickets but he's not petty enough to be focused against his rival?

I've seen Snyder do some pretty petty things, like keep Norv Turner waiting for 3+ hours outside of his office before he brought him in to fire him, so to say that he isn't petty enough to not cavort with cowboys is not a stretch.
Dude, you keep making that same non-sequitur statement and keep calling it a fact.

The truth is that you can be friends with someone and still be "focused" in a rivalry situation against them. Sometimes the friendship even enhances the sense of rivalry.

I'll bet that everyone on this board at some time or another has competed in a focused way against a friend. It happens in fantasy football every week.

By the way, as long as people are talking about what is "petty," one could say that it is pretty "petty" to criticize Snyder for the company he keeps.
