Message: <blockquote data-quote="TJV" data-source="post: 461469" data-attributes="member: 4300">I didn’t mention “magic” regarding Snyder and in every business endeavor I know of, having excess cash is an advantage: Teams with virtually unlimited cash reserves can overcome big money free agent mistakes. What happens if the league loses the “concussion” case against the retired players? What if it’s a huge award? The Packers will reduce their cash reserve to pay their share while every other team has another source of that payment. There are limits to how much Lambeau can be expanded. As other teams build new stadiums ala the Cowboys and the cap increases, the Packers’ will have to be more creative than others to keep up. And what if there’s a multi-year period in which they aren’t competitive on the field? What happens to merchandise sales? IMO thinking that the Packers will always be competitive financially contributed to the position they were in before the major Lambeau renovation Harlan headed. IMO it’s analogous to those who thought housing prices would always increase in 2005.  I'll give you the last word on this if you want it. (Not because I'm angry, just because I've presented my side of this and the point of diminishing returns has been reached IMO – this last comment is not directed at HardRightEdge, but to others who in the past have misinterpreted it.)</blockquote>
