I could believe that several owners are making large sums, and some are making very little.

Open the books, and prove it.

It's not that I don't believe profits aren't equal. It's just that the owners actually have the balls to cry poor when the NFL is the largest and most successful entertainment industry in this hemisphere.

What's worse is that some fans actually believe this line of bull. They believe the owners' position that player salaries are choking the business. Not that this is anything new. I recently read Roger Angell's Late Innings book. He could have been describing commenters of the article you posted, when he described fans during the MLB labor disputes of 1977-81.
