You want to get a look at loyalty, look no further than the average Redskin fan. Every year they suck and every year they're "going to the Super Bowl."

You have to give props to Redskin fan. A couple years ago Snyder was charging them to come to practice and they still came by the droves.

the NFL gets close to 4 billion in television deals YET they can only dole out 1 million dollars for the Katrina victims.

Weak doesn't even describe it. And what was with Deion calling for 1k per player? There is tremendous disparity in salaries, like in all sports. I think many could squeeze of a little more than that.

Kyle Busch won his first race (youngest driver to ever win, and brother of Kurt), and the team donated the purse of 250K from what I understand.

This weekend's NASCAR champs Carl Edwards and Kyle Busch dedicated their wins to those affected by Katrina but more importantly both winners -- and their team owners -- donated their winnings to the Red Cross. Busch, who won the Sony HD 500 at California Speedway, said tonight that he was following Edwards' example after the Ameriquest 300 Saturday night. NASCAR started its Red Cross relief campaign Sept. 1; Red Cross volunteers collected money at the Speedway this weekend. Some top drivers made a PSA. Sponsors are donating millions.

Man I'm in the wrong business. I knew the NFL made alot of money, but after actually kinda seeing the kind of money they bring in just makes me go zowie!

I'd love to have a third of 1% of what they are worth.
