    Heard about this on the radio this morning. I guess Woody forgot that they're in the business of winning football games...

    The NFL makes billions every year through the media. Of course they're in the media business.

    I don't think you can say Woody doesn't want to win football games based on that oen quote.

    Woody has never been great when speaking in front of the media. He always sounds a bit nervous.

    Woody has spent so much money since 2008 to help this team win and has been a much better owner than Hess ever was.

    As a Mets Jets Islanders and Knicks fan I greatly appreciate Woody Johnson.

    ^ and this.

    That sums up all a reasonable person should think when reading the OP.

    A bit off-topic, but I don't know that you want me to read your posts with Skip Bayless' voice. Because I totally do when you have that avatar.

    Yeah, it's just like peewee football, except teams are paid billions for merchandise rights, TV rights, radio rights, internet rights, and all kinds of other stuff. But other than that they're the same.

    Are you joking?
