This comes as no surprise -

An NFL official says that an arbitrator has decided to let the league's salary cap reductions against the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins stand.
NFL executive vice president Jeffrey Pash said Tuesday at owners' meetings in Atlanta that arbitrator Stephen Burbank ruled in the league's favor in the salary cap dispute.

The NFC East rivals were penalized for overloading contracts in the 2010 uncapped season despite league warnings. The Redskins lost $36 million over two years and the Cowboys $10 million.

During the uncapped season of 2010, all owner were told not to circumvent that and allocate crazy amounts to that cap that year...two teams did not do that and got punished.

Good job Roger Goodell
