No Salary Cap In 2010? (NFL)
I know this article is from last year, but wow, this will be devastating to some NFL teams.

And my beloved Packers have an idiot like mark murphy (a repuke by the way) who actually LIKE this idea??/ WTF???

1. let's be fair here
They talk about how the packers are in the 70th largest television market in the country but Milwaukee is 33, and they really pull the entire state, and more. I lived in Madison for a bit and it was 100% Packers and people would drive up for games and everyone watched it. They have a decent sized media market it's just a bit more spread out than other cities.

With that said getting rid of the salary cap is beyond idiocy. Parity is what makes the NFL great because teams rise and fall based on organization and TALENT not money.
