    Not to interrupt the Jason Wright-bashing, but my heart skipped a beat when I saw the picture of the superyacht that was on fire: Superyacht worth £20,000,000 goes up in flames a month after being delivered | Metro News Superyacht worth £20,000,000 goes up in flames a month after being delivered Too bad it wasn't Snyder's....😒

    Everything they needs is in the room...except, there's nothing there.

    You nailed it!

    This picture sums up everything that is wrong with this organization:

    Well, he HAS been on a yacht in the Mediterranean for more than a month... 🤑 Reminds me of that Looney Tunes cartoon..."I am Daniel M. Snyder. Millionaire. I own a mansion and a yacht."

    Uh, so who were RGIII, Kirk Cousins, Alex Smith, etc.? Chopped liver? Is Snyder aware of the term 'Wentzed' when their new QB screws up again under pressure? Not surprised Tanya isn't mentioned. We all knew that was a sham from the beginning. She must be hard at work on the new fight song and the mascot...

    Ah, yes. I remember when the 'legendary' Dave Shula got his hat tugged by Gary Reasons after criticizing him...it's in this video at the 1:09 mark:

    Here's a quick timeline: May 2018: Brian La Femina hired (rumors are the NFL forced him on Snyder) December 2018: La Femina fired July 2019: WP article states 40 staffers left after La Femina was fired December 2019: Bruce Allen fired January 2020: Ron Rivera hired as head coach July 2020: WP article about sexual harassment of female staffers and cheerleaders July 2020: WFT name replaces Redskins August 2020: Commanders hire Jason Wright as team president (rumors are the NFL forced him on Snyder too) I won't list all the blunders Wright has made since then...I agree that he's likely a good guy but is hamstrung by Snyder's ongoing meddling.

    What I'd like to know is why isn't Tom Brady being punished, when it should have been obvious to him that hanging out on Ross' yacht while he was still with the Patriots violated league tampering rules. I'm certainly not against Ross being punished (and the removal from the committees truly is a big deal...he has no voice now), but why is it OK for players to allow themselves to be tampered with in the first place? Brady could have said no, right? Does anyone know if Snyder is on any of the committees?
  11. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    I'm hoping that an enraged Ross will throw Snyder under the bus somehow because he was punished and Snyder was allowed to punish himself. Maybe a 'leak' is coming up...one can hope.
  12. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    Or screw them out of money, which Snyder allegedly has done. There has been nothing but silence on this aspect since it was first brought up. Unless...all 32 teams are doing the same thing, and there are in fact 64 accounting 'books' and not 32 like there should be.
  13. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    WTH?? They can suspend Ross for 60 days but they allowed Snyder to punish himself?? And they didn't even bother to check to see if Snyder was still running things in the building, when he was, in fact?? Ross didn't try to play hide-and-seek on his yacht on international waters. Ross wasn't forced to testify in front of Congress. And if people want to say Ross was punished for impeding the 'integrity of the game' (whatever that means) and Snyder wasn't, they could still get Snyder on cooking the books, right? Where's the outrage from the other owners?
  14. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    You nailed it. The other 3 leagues all give the commissioner considerable power over the players and the owners, in the interests of what is best for their sport. That's not the case in the NFL, where Goodell is merely a stoolie for the owners, who don't really care about what's best for football but certainly care about their own bottom line. Goodell was hired to be the 'hammer' to enforce discipline on the 'unruly' players by the owners, which has caused a lot of controversy due to the obvious scattershot punishments handed down. It's too bad the NFL owners view the players as an enemy (although a money-generating one) and not an ally, like the NBA owners do. I had read that Tagliabue was a good commissioner but was hated by owners like Jerry Jones for trying to restrict their power. Now Jones seems to be the most powerful owner in the league and the others just follow his lead. Jones almost convinced the other owners to get rid of Goodell about four year ago for his suspension of Zeke Elliott (I think), and since then Goofball Goodell has been terrified of pi$$ing off the owners lest he lose his $65 million paycheck. If only the other owners threatened Goodell the same way to discipline Snyder...remember Goodell is the only one that can call for a vote to remove Snyder.

    I agree, by trying to appease older fans and appeal to new ones, they accomplished neither. There's a famous saying: I don't know the key to success, but the key to failure is trying to please everybody. Maybe Jason Wright skipped that class in his McKinsey training. I don't agree about Jason believing the old fan base is gone completely...he would be even more out of touch than he already is...the old fanbase is still there but is rightfully moving on to other things until/if the team improves.

    So in addition to being on a warm seat for consecutive losing seasons (yes I know one was a 'paloff' year), there's even more pressure on Rivera to win now to try and woo fans back because of the new name FUBAR. Good ol' boy coaches in their 50s on their 2nd or 3rd team aren't known for their patience anyway, as they need to win now to keep their jobs, and there's added pressure due to the loss of fans from sustained losing plus an unpopular name change. Would the team be in this mess if they had done the name change in the right way, by actually involving the fans and choosing a name and uniforms and a logo that people actually liked, rather than just having Dan and Tanya and Jason toss around ideas in Dan's office while plowing through his ample liquor supply? Having a name/logo/uniforms/fight song that people actually liked would have brought fans to the stadium, in my opinion...at least until they start 2-6. It wouldn't surprise me if momentum started to build to bring back the Redskins name and logos, especially if the losing continues. It won't happen, but as Snyder himself knows you can never say NEVER...even if you use caps.

    I'm starting to think that if Snyder DOES show up he will just smirk his way through the whole process like these guys:
  18. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    They investigated themselves, and Goofball Goodell didn't say a word, so he's obviously OK with it. Just like Snyder's self investigation last year. Shockingly neither Snyder nor the Raiders found themselves guilty of anything. 🤔 They should allow the Raiders to investigate Snyder as payback for Gruden.
  19. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    The owners are making a mistake If they think that by staying silent on Snyder will help them avoid having to reveal their own skeletons in various closets. They fear if they support ousting Snyder it will open them up to the same treatment. Have the owners ever stopped to think that they could support Snyder and still get sued by female accusers anyway? There could be hundreds of accusers waiting in the wings to see if the NFL goes soft on Snyder...just like how that Ray Rice video was suddenly leaked after Goodell went soft on him. It's the unknown accusations that are just around the corner that you can't see that are the most dangerous.
  20. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    This says a lot to me. It reinforces the notion that Dan only cares about making himself money, and as long as he's fat and happy then he doesn't care about taking the necessary steps that would actually generate MORE money. That's why we see the continued FUBARs like offering stale beer and peanuts to fans, or having Sean Taylor's family stand in front of toilets. He doesn't care!
  21. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    I think you're right...after all, the owners seem to tolerate a complete dumpster fire like Jacksonville despite the losing. But you do have to wonder if they'd tolerate this if it was in New York (other than the Jets, of course). Didn't the NFL basically force GM George Young on the Giants in the late 70s, because they were the "Jaguars of the 70s" from 1964-80? The again, the NFL actually DID try that, with forcing La Femina on them, who was later fired. I've also heard that Jason Wright was forced on them by the NFL.

    Here's why the other NFL owners don't care about removing Snyder (other than the fear the same thing will happen to them): Report: NFL generated $11 billion in national revenue in 2021 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/07/14/report-nfl-generated-11-billion-in-national-revenue-in-2021/
  23. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    That's what the owners SHOULD be worried about, but sadly it seems they've all followed Jerruh's lead by believing all publicity is good...which it's NOT.
  24. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    What about holding him in contempt of Congress? (Cue Lloyd Christmas..."So you're tellin' me there's a chance!") It's sad to admit, but I think you're right about him being able to delay until the elections are over...
  25. BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen
    I don't see how Snyder has any leverage in this. First of all, he refused to show up for the initial date like Goodell did, saying his tummy hurt. He also said his tummy would continue hurting for the foreseeable future, too. Then Congress subpoena'd him. Snyder has refused to accept this subpoena, and now he is claiming his tummy no longer hurts and he will in fact agree to an interview...while still not physically accepting the subpoena. In my opinion, he doesn't get to dictate the terms. Just because he didn't accept the subpoena doesn't mean Congress should agree to a regular ol' sit-down interview, where Snyder can just plead the 5th all day long. I'm sure his lawyers will keep playing the angle, however, until after November when half the committee gets voted out. I wish the other NFL owners would just cut this turkey loose. Same with Goodell. In my book, getting subpoena'd by Congress brings bad publicity to the league and means you're not doing your job well enough to avoid scrutiny. There has to come a point where keeping Snyder around is more of a detriment than anything else.
