Yep, and it's really pretty sad. It takes a mammoth amount of mismanagement to tumble the Raiders -- with their tradition of outlaw cachet, nationwide following, and biker/fashion-ready silver and black duds -- below the likes of the Jaguars.

How can the Detroit Lions not be last???!!! 0-16 team operating in the lucrative Detroit media market!!!!

What is equally as impressive is that they are 2nd in both operating income and revenue. Would love to know what their net income is. Curious to know how big of a bite Taxachussetts takes out of the Krafts.

Dallas may drop since Jerry Jones is struggling to get anyone to buy the naming rights for his new stadium which he was counting on $10 million a year for it. He already lost $10 million for this year. He seems adament about not selling the naming rights for less. So it could be several years before he does.

Not only that but their debt/equity ratio will go up big time. Financing $1.5b stadiums will do that.

Redskin fans still don't understand where their money went.
