For you boxing judges scoring at home, give Round 1 on the field to Atlanta Falcons owner Arthur Blank after his team took the Dallas Cowboys to the woodshed in a 27-7 blowout victory Sunday.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones proved to be magnanimous after the game, while attempting to downplay the off-the-battle with Blank over a proposed contract extension for NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell.

Jones has threatened to sue the NFL and some owners, including Blank, if the league’s six-man compensation committed approves a contract for Goodell without it going before a full vote of the league’s 32 owners.
