[Cowboys] Jerry Jones Wants To Change NFL's Revenue Sharing



Jerry Jones sounded an interesting alarm when it comes to the Vikings stadium push before Friday night's game at the Metrodome. The owner of the Dallas Cowboys said that revenue-sharing will go away after the NFL's current collective bargaining agreement expires after the 2010 season. "We're in the last year of our collective bargaining agreement next year, that's an uncapped year, and then you don't have it anymore right there," Jones said. "It goes away automatically right there. When the labor agreement is over, it will be over and when there's a new one in it won't be a part of it. Eighty-five percent is far in excess of what any other leagues share," Jones said, talking about the current model. "What we're talking about is above 85 percent. That's what is subsidizing this market right now is above 85 percent. That's going to stop."
