Dodgers are in a cash-flow problem because the owners are in a hugely expensive divorce situation. Estimates are that they will spend $20M on lawyers in that divorce...


Mets are also in a financially precarious position.


Phoenix Coyotes actually declared bankruptcy and had to be bought out by the NHL just to avoid having a guy buy the team that the league does not want as an owner.


The Lions, Bengals, Clippers, Pirates, Royals and Cubs are all worse franchises than the Redskins.


Having said that, the Redskins have to be in the bottom 25% of that ranking of 122 franchises.
