9 hours ago, Jumbo said:i made a post yesterday about being conscious of the reality that the shooting of blake and the actions of the 17 yo shooter will continue play out facts/spin-wise over time, and the inevitable course of the evidence and analysis taking time to evolve and get all the loose stuff tightthat's not becuase i think there's that much to doubt about the basic culpability of each party and how the individual transgressions are not all 'equal' or legally justified with each actor involved in both matters, even at this timeit's becuase the game of arguing your pov using specific details that may soon get muddied, or shown to be misleading or erroneous, undermines the position taken even if it's still fundamentally valid overall and who wants even a marginally weakened stance?to that point, this morning smerconish interviewed a times journalist from a team of reporters focused solely on assimilating all the existing video and audio evidence on the 17 yo's actions, specifically and all those who interacted with him during his time there, cops and civilians (very good stuff)and they show a lot that supports what most of us think from what we've seen already, as the 17 yo basically being a 'bad guy', but there is enough other stuff to keep this from being some glaringly obvious slam dunk in court or even in the broad media arena...there are a number of things that will need to be sorted in seeking all the facts and many details will get exaggerated or misrepresented by humans in highly emotional and very serious opposition with each othersome work will have to be done to prosecute the case on the 17 yo, given a highly skilled attorney already has enough to make a play to the camera and public opinion as much as to a judge.... having some kind of grounds for a public campaign to make the guy a 'hero' or poster-boy (hitler youth?) or at least a sympathetic and 'innocent' person, is a big goal for the right wing hereat this point i still see the 17 yo as fully culpable myself, but you will see all these details argued over and amplified...i plan to judge them all on merit, naturally, tho i acknowledge my bottom line on 'things that are the most wrong in our society when it comes to racism' remains as it has been...logically/rationally and emotionally
at least its white on white violence. can i get an amen

Remember Sheehan with secondhand remarks about this weeks ago....based on the data, it seems dumb to spend high draft picks on wr

If hes bass fishing its strictly the competition aspect of it that draws guys and gals in..catching the most, catching the biggest. If he's tournament fishing...thats just pure skill/knowledge/luck based gambling. Greatest thing mankind has ever invented.....bass tournament

Read the entire article, after everything that happened this is so strange to me that this man would take time out of his day to defend Dan (and to a lesser extent Bruce). Why not just stay quiet? Very strange
Hes probably just trying to take accountability for his own ****ups. Its part of the process of cleaning up your act

I will say this also, and then let it rest, because I don’t like that I have been forced into a position of defending Dan Snyder. He deserves a lot of criticism.
Joe Gibbs always speaks highly of him. Joe Gibbs helped him hire Rivera last Winter.
I doubt anybody here wants to question Joe Gibbs integrity.Its the only amazon review i need on the guy.
Dan will hopefully find the right captains(that can deal with him too)

Snyder can't handle being around black people? lol...Isn't he the one who became best buds with Lavar Arrington, Clinton Portis, RG3, Doug Williams, and forced the entire coaching squad and front office to draft Dwayne Haskins because his son went to the same high school as Haskins? lol...
kapri bibbs yeah that right...Who?

The good old, “We have work to do” statement.Its just like half the name change stories though. Its not going to be good enough unless Snyder puts a dagger in his gut like a disgraced samurai

DJ would have been man of the year had that happened lol
Just imagine a drunk Jay swaying side to side with a padded/helmeted DJ targeting a receiver. Kind of like that ninja arcade game I grew up with and the fatalities...**** my memory

Also, pending some idea that Rivera is involved, anyone trying to throw him under the buss can go kick rocks.
he’s been thrown to the wolves for something he presumably had nothing to do with. With no executive support because the positions are empty except for the one filled by the empty suit.
it takes great courage, resolve and character to stand up and take charge in a position like that. And I’m not even a Rivera fan.
there’s enough people to throw stones at right now we don’t need to manufacture reasons to add Rivera to the lineup.
Ron is gibbs 3.0 so far. I do hate the negative headline with a ron picture

Want to know something that accelerated this culture and behavior by the franchise?
Redskins Front office: https://www.redskins.com/team/front-office-roster/ - 0 women listed.
Eagles Front office: https://www.philadelphiaeagles.com/team/front-office/ - I lost count after 30.
I know I'll get some hate for this post, but we have zero women in our Front Office as far as I know. At least women that are listed. The only one I even know of is Jennifer King, but she's on the coaching staff. We have to do better, this doesn't seem like organization is actually hiring on an equal playing field.
Still living on Bruce time.

He said in that article that he wasn't aware but the article did say he didnt pause when they asked him if he regretted taking the job.
We'll see, Dan should have told him, I would be pissed if I was Ron, being hung out to dry like he was.
How do you fix culture when you're not made aware of the negative situations that created the culture problem?
The cheerleader thing was public before he took the job wasnt it? cant remember

Thats what I'm curious about. Did Ron know that it was a frat house and you could just always be drunk and high and chase women around all day or did he know a quop was coming and led it?
The theme was "change the culture" Ron booted bruce...dan tried to hide him in a stadium group, but ron said nope, /boot. Ron knew the mission

Sheehan was one to point out that Dan doesnt run the skins(in the last decade), Bruce did. Weve seen dan/vinny and bruce in the last 2 decades. Im holding out hope that hes a hometown fan and wants to get it right

Seems to me the employees lost. The players lost. The cheerleaders lost. The fans lost.
We have all lost because of this hot trash owner.
If nothing he does but selling satisfies you. You’re probably going to be disappointed

Just now, JMUSkins said:
Ok so something unverified happened under another owner so you give Snyder a pass? For what? Winning? Nope! Being a good owner? Nope! Being a decent human being? Obviously not!
HE MUST BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AFTER THE COACHING AND MANAGEMENT CAROUSEL. HE IS THE COMMON DENOMINATOR.
because we lose

The woman on WTOP after the story broke worked for the Redskins or as a media person covering the Redskins in the 80’s and said it was going on then too. Even Cooke did things to her.
but she said it was the 80’s. Today is different and I think she’s right.
who gives a **** what happened with Cerrato and Gibbs. Can’t do anything about it. But this is now and something can be done.
Just saying you cant blame Dan like hes the one that did it...what so many here want to do

Dan doesn't need a PR team, fans of this team love to continue being white knights for the teams constant wrongdoings, truly amazing ****.
Nah. You want dan gone because we lose. Not because hes named in **** like this...you just assume. This all happened under Bruce. Cant read the article but did it happen under vinny and Joe?

I'm giving him until Wednesday to come up with an acceptable response otherwise I'm dropping my support of this franchise. Not that anyone cares, I'm just over this garbage.
He fired everybody. Somebody needs to samurai stab themselves in the gut mabye
