the contract is backloaded with money the player never sees & the agent looks good for signing his player to a monster deal

I'll give Dan Snyder this, he is willing to spend money to buy himself a championship. Lamar was once a lot like him, but in time he matured and after winning a championship he started running it like a business. I admire that Mr. Snyder is willing to pay for the best coaching staff and players he can get, I wish Lamar would do the same. I cannot fault him for spending the money he has because it is his money to spend and he wants to win NOW. Sure he might be immature in doing so but he gives the fans and team every opportunity to field a winning, championship caliber team.

before he won his super bowl the game was completely different, the players were paid like it was a part time job. There wasn't even free agency in the nfl until 1989. Hunt has never spent HIS money on football ... not much of it anyway. Hunt spends the money of the fans of the kansas city chiefs on footbal .... minus around 20-30 million per year he keeps for a rainy day of course.

Ignorance is bliss, I guess. Teams that win are the ones that draft well and spend their free agent money wisely, rather than freely. If you want to bitch at Carl, feel free to bring out charts about draft picks from, say, '95 to the present. But this BS comparing him to an owner because the guy spends more is one of the more ludicrous things I've seen. If we're going to take that tack, toss blame where it's due: at St. Lamar, he who can do no wrong because he's old, frail and helped form the league. Because Carl only controls the cap. It's Lamar that controls the cash. There's enough to bitch about with Carl without bitching about shit that he's not even controlling. None of which changes the fact that the deadskins are losers no matter how much Snyder spends. |

The only owner that has gone into his own money was Jim Irsay to pay for Peyton Manning, and the other owners thought he was nuts. The NFL model is so successful that every team can spend money to be competitive and still turn a profit... there are a lot of teams that turn a bigger profit than Lamar. |

How you got from my comments about how stupid it is to compare an owner to a GM to your comments about the Redskins winning a playoff game doesn't tell me anything other than maybe you didn't read my post and you want to rant. |

This might help explain the cap room:
Redskins | Team working to free up cap space Mon, 13 Mar 2006 19:50:52 -0800 The Washington Post reports the Washington Redskins have begun converting about $13.5 million in total roster bonuses due to players in 2006 into signing bonuses, which will clear about $10 million in total cap space. |
