    RALPH VOTED AGAINST DEAL

    NFL owners have approved a six-year extension of the collective bargaining agreement by a vote of 30-2 Wednesday night.

    Buffalo and Cincinnati were the two teams to vote against the proposal, according to ESPN's Chris Mortensen.

    Wonder what this all means....

    on a side note, any way we could ban skooby from posting while the site is being updated.

            The two small market teams didn't get the degree of revenue sharing that they wanted.

            But it's all political- they knew they didn't have a choice, they knew they couldn't stop the deal so they opposed it just to make a point.

              Apparently, the new revenue sharing deal involves the large market teams giving around 10% of local revenue back to the league for sharing, while smaller market teams might have to give as much as 50% of local revenue, meaning it just became that much harder for the Bills to operate in Buffalo.

                This deal is VERY bad for the future of football in Buffalo.. You will see as details become more available

                  I don't have a firm grasp on this whole revenue sharing deal. I hope the Bills stay there though for your sake!

                    You know what I like? Is having one hand tied behind your back and kicking everyone's ass. It makes it all the much sweeter. Go Bills!

                        ralph is big time challenged.he had no clue what was going on in there(LITERALLY). almost felt bad for the guy.he was interviewed after the deal was done,and he should never talk in public again.jim kelly qb'ing in superbowls was more fun to watch then that.

                          Bledslow - you are an idiot. You haven't seen the deal, how the hell would you know how much time it would take to understand it? What, you see the vote is 30-2 and so you conclude 30 owners understood it and 2 are morons??? How about after two days of meetings, maybe 15 owners just didn't give a **** anymore, all they knew was some teams would contribute to the fund and some wouldn't and their vote was determined solely by their desire to go home. If you're so bright why don't you explain to us how much each of the teams will contribute this year, and what do the teams that don't contribute have to do to get some of that money put into the fund? Then explain whether or not the sharing is good enough to keep some semblance of parity among the teams. When you are done with that, explain the cash over cap agreement in the new contract. I want to see your responses recorded for posterity....that way they can laugh at you too.

                          What a frikkin moron you are.

                              Link ? I read this outside speculation days ago, before the new details were drawn up.

                              Do you have the details of the new agreement to make such a bold statement ?
