Here's another nice write up....
Opinions on penalties for Redskins, Cowboys vary as meeting looms - Don Banks - SI.com
I love this...
Quote:
While league sources said the process of having the matter settled by an arbitrator always makes the outcome of the grievance process more difficult to predict, Mara expressed no sense of concern. But other league sources weren't as confident, and acknowledged that the size of cap penalties might be reduced as part of a final ruling, or perhaps even overturned.
"That might happen,'' said one league source. "Who knows where this goes with an arbitrator involved? There might have to be some ground given. But it really doesn't seem to be (NFL commissioner) Roger Goodell's style to change his mind to any great degree when it comes to his decisions.''

I love that there are owners less confident then Mara. I also love the fact they belive it might get over turned. The last line is even more funnier... Goodell style to change his mind to any great degree when it comes to his decisions..... I guess the writer forgot by the end of his article that Goodell has no authority at this point or decisions to make. By lumping the NFLPA in the arguement the two teams took Goodell out of the equation. So if there is a decision to reverse the punishment Goodell won't have any control over it.
