The Cullen Jenkins Mistake

[pbmax]

Lemme guess, you work or worked for the Packers? That's the only explanation I can think of for why you had access to "accurate" Packer cap data.

Me? I'm just a lowly fan who read the MJS. Guys like Silverstien and McGinn, they're not credible. They reported that in 2005 the Packers were about $7.5 M under after they cut Wahle and Sharper, among others. They reported that the next season the Packers, along with the rest of the NFL, gained significant cap space due to the new tv deal; the Packers at one point were around $35 M under.

NFL TV deal -2006–2013: CBS ($622.5 million/yr), Fox ($712.5 million/yr), NBC ($650 million/yr)m, ESPN/ESPN Deportes ($1.1 billion/yr).

Total amount: $3.085 billion/yr

PS: I rest my case. This will be my last reply in this thread.

Extra Credit Question: How could Ted Thompson know that the 2006 CBA would increase NFL team revenue in early 2005? Possibly the TV deals were done by then, but the real escalator was the switch, engineered by Tagliabue and Upshaw, to a Total Football Revenue model. One that included local team revenues. This was far from a done deal as many owners had doubts and several felt they would never be ensured of a workable and equitable revenue sharing system between high and low revenue teams.

If you feel Ted Thompson is psychic and possesses pre-cognition, please present all relevant evidence.

I think it's time for all of us to face fact.

Do you know what has happened with him? Did he drop the "project" when the info dried up a few years back? I had hoped he would pick it up again after the new CBA was signed.

No, I don't.

The info dried up and TT & Ball managed the cap so much better than the previous regime, it wasn't that interesting monitoring the number.

That, & I think some of these guys just realize they are putting in too much time on minutae.

OK, I'll bite. What fact?

I cannot face fact

Wow, I love internet arguments. No one ever concedes defeat. When losing, just change the subject or simply ignore the person you're arguing with.

Take it easy Tank. Just stick to the debate points.

Donovin Darius is the best safety ever, the Packers need to sign him.
