I just cant imagine that the NFL would knowingly accept this policy and ruin two of the most storied franchises in the NFL (Green Bay, Pittsburgh). If this new policy is set up like MLB or NBA, then Green Bay, Pittsburgh, Buffalo, Jacksonville and New Orleans are in bad shape. I cant see the NFL doing this to the Rooney family.

MLB did it to Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Miliwakee, and every other small market team. People like Jerry Jones will piss on a luxary tax like the big boys in MLB. Teams like Dallas cant win on an even playing field and see a way to tilt it in their favor.

bullshite. Oakland and Minnesota have been consistently good this decade. Florida, a low revenue team won the WS in 03 (and 97), The Tampa Bay Rays were in the 2008 WS. Meanwhile the big spending Mets haven't done crap.

The Yankee dynasty of the late 90's was largely built on players they developed (Jeter, Williams, Rivera, Pettitte) even this years team has lots of home grown talent.

First of all that is completely wrong, they have won plenty, they won 3 SB in 4 years o this level playing field. 2nd have you noticed Washington has been paying for big name free agent for a while and hasn't done crap. Cap or no cap, teams that draft smart and make smart free agent moves will still win.
