More On Those Spending Stats
Posted by Derek
Ok, this is going to be a bit convoluted, but stay with me.
This weekend, Eagletarian linked to a story by NFL.com's Jason La Canfora about how much each team had spend in terms of actual salary dollars from 2004 through 2008. We linked to it, a spirited discussions has ensued (here and elsewhere), and so it goes.
Anyway, today, Eagletarian linked to La Canfora's latest offering, in which LC demonstrated he's just as bored with the offseason as the rest of us by breaking down the spending per win.
Now, I tell you all that just to establish where everything is before I link to this post on Don't Boo The Birds, in which those guys do the same thing LC did in his most recent post, except they also do the analysis for postseason wins and provide some commentary on the bottom for why some teams really stuck out.
Anyway, it's an interesting read. I still hope when the MSM guys get back from vacation they pick things back up by waving the numbers in Banner's face and demanding an explanation.
As mentioned before, the "controversy" itself is meaningless, but it sure is fun when the Eagles have to pull back the curtain a bit. Bray, jackals, bray...
