Revenue sharing...

Goodell explained three main qualifiers by saying one was "a performance qualifier based on an average of leaguewide gate [receipts]; the second would be something that, if you had a new stadium, there would be a certain period of time that you would not qualify for revenue sharing; and the third would be if you just sold your franchise, there would be a certain amount of time in which you wouldn't receive revenue sharing."

Maybe its me...but this seems not to make sense...

Why would now the Bills want to build a new stadium, if they would lose a share of the pie? Unless its assumed that the new stadium revenues would offset that..

then the last one...if you had sold your franchise, why would qualify? (perhaps they meant just bought a franchise?)

I wish they discussed some of the details of the "qualifiers". I'm surprised they got such a unanimous vote.

I just think it's awesome - remember last year, just how close they actually were to imploding.

Keep this game rolling along, it is the best there is no question.
