  1. I'd have to side with Ron on this one. I think it's very likely he had no idea what was going on here. I mean, he comes to the team, hardly gets any time in the office before the pandemic hits, working in lockdown mode most of the time. He's had no opportunity to really get a feel for the way the building operates, and he's been preoccupied with getting his staff together, getting to know his players, working on his plans, adjusting to the pandemic, going through a name change, etc., etc. I'm surprised he even knows what city he's in. Must suck for the guy. This could be the first coach to suffer from burnout before ever coaching a single game.
  2. Exactly. If something has ALREADY HAPPENED, I want it to come out. What's pathetic is wanting ANY scenario as a fan where this goon continues to own the team for the next however many years. The #FireBruceAllen hashtag seemed to bring us good mojo. Maybe it's time to finally come up with one that gets to the absolute root of the team's problem..
  3. I think in the Richard Mann texts especially, you can easily read between the lines re: the woman's reaction. Sure, she "lol"s a couple times when he talks about her breasts, but when he says TWICE that he "wants to" and "is going to" grab her butt, she explicitly says, "No" and "nope." The creep (married with kids) then goes on to say, "Come on, that's innocent." Being "traumatized" in these instances -- when someone you know, maybe respect and on whom your job may depend -- doesn't have to (and doesn't usually) equate to someone immediately reacting in shock and horror to a comment like this. This is the type of reaction that's absolutely commonplace in these situations. Anyone (speaking in generalities) who would read that, consider the scenario and then come back with, "Sounds like she liked it to me" isn't paying attention.
  4. Yes. When you consider all the rumors that were floating around, about "bribing refs," Snyder being "linked to Epstein," Gruden's thing with Capri Bibbs, "drug and alcohol abuse" from Snyder ... the "that's it?" response, while wrong at its core, is at least understandable as an initial gut reaction, especially considering how so many of our hopes were tied to the idea that this could FINALLY be the end of Snyder. It isn't. At least not right now. And that's a disappointment for me. I'm glad all this came out, though. The people involved needed to be shown for who they are. It's just ultimately disappointing that the person I've always considered to be the real culprit is still relatively safe. It's like arresting the Joker's minions and not getting the Joker. As long as the Joker is still at large, he'll always find more minions.
  5. I guarantee you Snyder and his minions have never read it and are not referring to it now. Since when has anything this cretin done screamed, "good business sense" or "strong crisis management." lol. His silence isn't based on business theory. It's rooted in simple cowardice.
  6. LMAO, the fact that Rivera is the one making the comment right now, a guy who hasn't coached a SINGLE GAME for this franchise yet, is all anyone with a brain needs to know about our owner. It's beyond pathetic.
  7. Why would anyone expect him to step out and say anything substantial related to this? When has he ever shown that kind of leadership? He's an utter coward. Always has been. Afraid to speak, afraid to show his face, will do so only when he absolutely has to (or when there's "good" news to report, which is another reason we haven't seen him very often.) Besides, he's the source of the problem. Someone who wasn't the source of the problem, who actually had a conscience about this whole fiasco, would be WAY out in front of this. That's not our lil' Danny. He'll continue to hide on his yacht as someone else spends days crafting some sort of pathetic, soulless "statement."
  8. I think very few people are laughing these days. That "laughter" has just turned into utter disgust, and as fans, eventually you too have to ask yourself how you can root for a ****ing team owned by this piece of human garbage. There is nothing in this story that surprised me in the least. As I've said, I've known some people who worked there. They've all said the same things about how horrible the environment is. It's disgusting. I utterly believe Snyder is not only aware of the sexist aspects of this "culture" but perpetuates it. I'm so disappointed that there is nothing in this story that would seem to spell the end of this scumbag's regime. What happened to the "ref bribery" rumors? The Epstein connection? Just as so many thought, Larry's retirement was not something he'd planned, lol. What a disappointment he turned out to be. What a "voice" of the Washington Redskins. Snyder destroyed our team, ladies and gentlemen. The name is gone, the respect is gone, the joy is gone. And the fact that this worm brings in a lawyer to "investigate the culture," lol. What an utter joke. The investigation should begin and end with him. I can only hope and pray that there's more to come and that this is only the beginning of the end for him. While everyone named in this article is worthy of disdain, there's no one more worthy of it than this piece of garbage.
  9. LOL, now that would be hilarious considering all the threads on here year after year of how the refs have it in for us.
  10. I'm not accusing him. There is certainly a chance that he's not involved in whatever the sordid details are here. It's just my opinion that the way things look right now don't bode well for that chance.
  11. I think if they were worried about him saying things, they would've given him some fanfare on the way out. The fact that not a single word was said points to him being part of the issue and Dan wanting to distance himself as much as possible from the people who are about to be hit hard. Hopefully he's unsuccessful in that, as whatever has been going on, I'm absolutely certain he's known about it and had a hand in it. Too many stories I've heard over the years. I've said it before: He's a horrible human being, and his stink permeates the entire culture there. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!
  12. I don't personally think that's a possibility at all. Or if it is, it's an EXTREMELY dim one. There's no way he resigns that abruptly just before training camp starts and then gets ZERO mention from the team for his years of service. I've also seen it mentioned in some these tweets from the "insiders" that he IS involved related to sexual misconduct, so we'll see. But there's no way he's not involved in this in some way, imo.
  13. I heard at the time directly from some people who had firsthand experience, personally witnessed things and spoke to actual players that the Russini stuff was absolutely true. Heard the same thing about Kelli Johnson years prior. This wasn't just some guyssaying, "Yeah, I bet she did that." It was guys saying in hushed tones, "Yeah, that's absolutely true." None of this is proof of anything. From what I was told, though, and how it was told to me, I've always been inclined to believe it. Absolutely sad if true, as it sets back so many other women who truly care about doing their jobs the right way.
  14. Saw this at the link below. Take it as you like: https://removeddit.com/r/Redskins/comments/hrv9ip/for_those_who_arent_on_skins_discord_heres_what_i/ WaPo article is coming tomorrow. Friday at the latest. Rats are fleeing the ship and attempting to distance themselves while they can. Larry is the prime example. Others could be following suit. This goes far higher than anyone can think. Larry Hess and Eric Schaeffer are involved as well. Jay Gruden is as well. Sex assaults. Drug and alcohol abuse. Other owners are furious and this could lead to Snyders removal. In no way Dan couldn't have knowledge of at least some of it. Minority owners are furious and fed up with Dan. Saw an opportunity to strike.
  15. Someone in that twitter thread claims the Epstein story was planted as a deliberate hoax, so I'd hit the brakes on that one. Guess we'll find out soon enough.
  16. Yes. Whether they're "picking on us" or not doesn't excuse the embarrassing things this team has done under Snyder and later Allen. These are not good people, and that usually doesn't lead to good things.
  17. Ugh. The seed of Turner must not be allowed to take root in D.C.! Or something like that.
  18. Listened to Jon Keim's podcast this morning, and he was talking about how dejected Scary Terry was after the game Sunday. How for the first time he declined comment to the media. Said he just looked miserable after facing another loss, and that he's lost more in his short time with the Redskins than he did his entire college career. Made me think about the damage this "damn good culture" could be doing to some of these young guys, and I can't imagine he's happy right now that he was drafted by this team. Hard to believe it's fallen so far, but I'm sure a lot of potential draft picks next year are thinking, "Please, not Washington. Anywhere but Washington."
  19. Love the pick. I hear he's already making offers to Sonny for the right to wear #9.
  20. I have to admit, I LOVE the burgundy and gold look, and I miss it this year. Then again, we've sucked in it against Dallas and it reminds me of Bruce, so ... I'm all for the blue vs. white this week.
  21. I'll probably regret saying it if it happens, but I would like to get him. It's time to return the favor for Alfred Morris.
  22. How 'bout dem cowboys? Ignorance mixed with stupor Pantaloons shat in
  23. How is it that no one (that I've seen) here has mentioned NFL Network having a ****ING COWBOY MARATHON today because of the "fact" that they're "America's Team"?? Seriously, **** NFL Network. All Cowboys, all day. For the love of all things holy. The bonfire of my hate has been stoked this day.
