my aunt had AVM. Required Gamma Knife and PT. She's pretty much lost all use of her left hand. Then again, she's not an athlete.

That should change with revenue from new stadium, probably not calculated there.
It's especially surprising considering all the PSL money and such. Both organizations should be making money hand over fist.

Speaking of the Giants, fuck the schedule Gods for the prime time schedule. Here's how it looks in November:

11/20: SNF vs Philly
11/28: MNF @ NO
12/11: SNF @ Dallas

3 prime time games in four weeks, come the fuck on.
 
wtf, Hoge slamming Tebow as worse than JFat again.

Really have no idea why the guy is slamming him so much. Tebow isn't exactly a genius, but off the top of my head the Panthers and Cardinals would have begged in the streets to acquire him last season. Basically Vick lite in terms of passing vs rushing.

Nothing quite like NFC East divisional matchups.

Yeah I am no Tebow fan or believer but Hodge seems especially salty towards Tebow for some reason. Then again I always found Hodge to be a moron.

Nothing. I'm complaining about the same teams being on so close together. There were multiple teams last year that did MNF the week after SNF or vice versa. It's annoying.

That throwing stick stunt of yours has boomeranged on us.

couldn't they have just drafted him if they wanted? I thought they both traded down?

Well we are talking about when the Panthers thought Clausen was the answer and the Whiz in Arizona thought he could mold a QB out Derek Anderson.

He was drafted at #25 so probably? But nobody expected him to be NFL ready (hell, he was also more successful than Moreno at rushing, too) and few teams were really interested in using their 1st round pick on him. I vaguely recall that round the league consensus was he would show up in the 2nd round.

Hoge, a former FB, is also the guy who said that Aaron Rogers was far inferior to Alex Smith, then backed it up by saying a few years later that Brian Brohm would beat Rogers out as Favre's replacement.

Not exactly a font of QB knowledge.

Hodge is too busy looking for the next factorback.

The Saints make a lot more revenue than I thought. But then, they do sell out absolutely every game and all season tickets with a long waiting list.

Teams share the TV money, so the differences in revenue I think come from ticket prices and tickets sold, plus whatever the teams get from their local radio deals, and local marketing. I know a couple years ago the Skins where number 1 in terms of avg ticket price.

Plaxico Burress "tweaked" his ankle, according to Rex Ryan. Rex says it's "not a major injury."But PB won't practice for day or 2

Man I hope this kid can stay healthy. He has quite a few ankle problems on the Giants too if I remember correctly.

how are radio deals in most markets? In DC Snyder is partnered with I think everyone but The Fan, the one Lavar works for.

You forgot the Texans at 20:

20. Houston Texans - American football - United States - €190 million

Bob got such a sweet deal with Reliant and the city. This list though looks nothing like the Forbes list

But hom many stations actually broadcast the games live? In Philly it is just 94.1 fm, but I am sure the Eagles make decent money off of that.

Snyder isn't really partnering w/ anyone, he owns the stations (ie. through the company he founded Red Zebra Broadcasting). The Redskins also own FedEx, so any college games/concerts/etc revenue go to the skins. Not sure how that factors into the accounting.

The Texans have redone the contracts of Andre Johnson, DeMeco Ryans and Antonio Smith to get under the salary cap. They were $8.5M over.

Who the hell abducted RIck Smith and replaced him in the off season? This is not the front office I am used to.
