Dan Snyder, Lesser of Two Evils?

"Give me all your monies!"

Ok, Dan Synder sucks. We all know that his micro-managing style and impatience with the Washington Redskins has put the team in a decade lull. The prices associated with the Redskins game day experience is quite outrageous, but it does not hold candle to the way the Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is trying to gauge the state of Texas. Everything is big in Texas, especially your AMEX bill after you charge a pair of upper deck tickets to your plastic.

Get this...the cost for a ticket in the 400 upper level section is $239. As of now, there are still a couple of hundred of those tickets remaining, which if not sold, Sunday's Cowboy game will be blacked out to the local Dallas market. While I fully expect those seats to be somehow sold, it would be hilarious to see the game blacked out.

To get a full disclosure, there are cheaper tickets at Cowboys stadium, but $239 for an upper deck ticket is a bit absurd. I guess at least you get to watch the largest HDTV known to man?
Or catch a deflected punt?
