Dissident2 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Thanks for this. Filling it out today. And just a humble request .... keep the "this will accomplish nothing" peanut gallery comments out of this. Let people who are actually willing to try have their moment. Thank you. 7 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koolblue13 Posted February 7, 2022 Author Share Posted February 7, 2022 This is the only way to really make anything happen. Make enough noise about hitting them in the wallet and hope it scares them a bit. It's also a great way to bring some light to the way domestic abuse and sexual assault is drastically ignored by the NFL. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CommanderInTheRye Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Great idea KoolBlue13! What amazes me is (other than PFT) the relative lack of media uproar over both the institutional mistreatment of women under Dan's tenure AND Friday's shocking revelation that the NFL and Snyder had used a joint defense strategy to insure that Beth Wilkinson's findings never saw the light of day. This is clearly a case of legally sanctioned corporate corruption at its worst. In a straw poll of several televised sports talk shows Friday I saw at best a perfunctory mention of the previous days congressional hearings. First Take specifically ignored the entire matter. It was as if it never occured. This is especially disappointing given Molly Qerim's usual penchant for any sports related issue concerning the treatment of women. It's almost as if the NFL has issued a gag order for its media partners on this matter but of course that's absurd. After all we have a free and independent press unburdened by economic considerations. Or do we?

mhd24 Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 A suggestion would be to not use a form paragraph like that? I would make it as personalized as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that's the case maybe it is better, for those of us willing to take the time, to send an individually written letter that addresses our mutual concerns.

This is a super easy way to just keep sending email after email, but personalized ones definitely matter too. I think it needs to be hit in major bulk more than anything and come from across the league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebestian Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Is it okay to sign up if you are in Canada? Also doesn’t Shaq own or have a lot of influence with papa johns.

woodpecker Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 Thanks that made it easy. I am actually still working on my personalized letter, so in the meantime I went ahead and sent out the form letter. I’m going to do both. And I’m going to have an extra special one for Nike. I encourage everybody to do this. It took me no more than five minutes. I have no idea if this will have any effect, but as a longtime fan I don’t think I could live with myself if I didn’t try. I am so tired of this embarrassing dumpster fire. I want to win like everybody else, but even more importantly I also want to have a respectable franchise that I can be proud to be a fan of. Those things are possible but… First, Snyder must go 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sebestian Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I tweeted @shaqtoday. I provided him with my passion for the team and provided him as many articles and links pertains to the toxic culture Snyder has let manifest within the so called organization. Hopefully he has some powerful friends and at the very least severe ties between papa johns and this team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birdlives Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 I’m sorry I didn’t see this before but once I’m in front of a computer I will be sending letters to every sponsor. I want to add a paragraph which I will do over the weekend. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsmarydu Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 This was promoted on sports talk radio here in ATL. Dukes and Bell were absolutely ****ting on Snyder on my way home from work Wednesday, worst owner OF ANY TEAM EVER...truly giving him the business. I couldn't help but laugh and be sad at the same time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, they are the ones who have been protecting Snyder. Wouldn’t hurt to get that out there. Even fans of other teams should be reminded, that if their teams owners continue to protect Snyder then they are condoning his actions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dissident2 Posted February 11, 2022 Share Posted February 11, 2022 Has anyone received any responses to their emails? I did read from the guy who started this thing that Inova asked him to take them off the list as they're not current partners with the team. So at least they were aware of it enough to comment.
