Hunt accomplished some great things but revenue sharing was not among them.
Read Mara's bio, he became an owner when he was 14 years old and built the NFL.

Where do you think he got the idea, you dumb sonofabitch?
I would also like to point out that ESPN's #1 news story of the year was not the Tour de France scandal, not the Rose Bowl game, not the travails of Toothlessberger, not Tiger Woods winning two majors, not the US international teams falling flat on their face, but rather the T.O. suicide attempt. If that isn't a reason to stop watching ESPN, I don't know what is.
