THOMPSON AND BALL ARE TRYING TO SAVE MONEY FOR RAINY DAY FUND

We'll try this Bretsky style. Here is what McGinn said he learned this week:
Quote:
The team’s remarkable financial health was one reason why it was remarkable to learn that one of the driving principles in football decisions made by Thompson and Ball is money. Not cap savings, either. Saving for that proverbial rainy day.
They’re concerned that the NFL’s revenue-sharing system regarding network television and other endeavors might one day end, perhaps in the not-too-distant future. And, I’m told, if they can do their fair share and save some money in the football operation by coming in under budget, then so much the better.
Last financial report had the rainy day fund at $275 million.
