That’s what’s confusing Well, the tweet -- the way I read it -- was conjecturing based on what he "heard." I never take those types of reports at face value. I'd have to imagine one or both of the owners were there with such an unveiling, no matter how tacky or outrageous. 11 hours ago, SkinsNatsFan said: Dan and Tanya were both in the costume. They were yelling "You're all loser pigs!" at the fans. I was there. I saw them get out of it and I saw that that girl get in. Well they would both have to be in the costume. I mean Dan's only 3'5", so Tanya would have to compensate for the rest of the height and sit on Dan's shoulders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PigskinRedskin Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 7 minutes ago, Die Hard said: Does anyone know anything about the Behdad Eghbali group? Behdad Eghbali cofounded Clearlake Capital in 2006 with Jose E. Feliciano. The private equity firm is based in Santa Monica, California. Clearlake Capital says it has more than $70 billion in assets under management; it is known for scoring some of the private equity industry's best returns. In May 2022, Clearlake Capital joined billionaire investor Todd Boehly and several others in the $3 billion purchase of English soccer team Chelsea FC. Also from WashingtonTimes: https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/nov/2/jeff-bezos-investment-firms-looking-who-could-poss/ Quote In 2020, Eghbali and Feliciano reportedly had a deal to buy the 40% stake from the team’s (now former) three minority partners for $900 million. But Snyder, who had the right of first refusal, rejected the offer and bought out the partners for $875 million instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’sa business for him. I believe he’s looking to buy teams that return a maximum profit. So, he likely sees the huge revenue in bringing back Washington fans. He claims that you do have to have a good team on the field. he’s against revenue sharing 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like people that are here simply for the money, will invest 7 billions and look to sell it for 10 billions or more in 4/5 years. I'm not sure that the kind of owners we need as it wouldn't put us back on track. They'll aim at nothing else but money and would care less at results on the field. It's kinda given, that Dan selling will results in a rise of fans showing up for a few years. Before leaving again when they'll see nothing really changed. I'd like to have someone that is here for the fun of owning an NFL team and be here for the long haul.

However, there are definitely some things about these shady characters that give me pause... Behdad Eghbali and Jose Feliciano. Credit: Clearlake Capitol Group It seems that Eghbali and Feliciano are a bit of a yin and yang team. While both are true capitalists with their primary motivation being profit for profits sake. They go about it quite differently. Eghbali is known as a mysterious ice warrior, a man hidden in the shadows, who will viciously garrote you from behind when you least expect it. He has perhaps the largest collection of priceless Samurai swords and edged martial arts weapons outside of Japan. Every Halloween he comes to work dressed in an authentic 15th century shinobi shozoku-- the traditional black garb of ninjas-- replete with vintage throwing stars and katana. His nicknames are "the soulless one", "the silent creeper" and "the destroyer of worlds". He has a sign posted in the break room at all of his offices that says: "Coffee is for closers, ONLY." A line from his favorite movie, "Glenn Garry, Glenn Ross." Feliciano, on the other hand, is pure personality. Gregarious, open, light hearted, approachable, a lover of the night life, imminently likeable and extremely charismatic. A natural salesman. He enters a room and you find yourself drawn to him, even when you know he's manipulating you. He had a reputation for dating super models, and disposing of them like they were used tic tacs, before going on to the next one. His nicknames are "love 'em and leave 'em Jose", "the REAL BIG Unit", and "the breaker of hearts". Graceful and light on his feet, he once won a ball room dancing contest on a dare. He has never gone to a party where he wasn't the center of attention. A cultured man with a vast modern art collection, and an encyclopedic knowledge of fine wines and champagne that would put a sommelier to shame. When it comes to business they are a unified team that plays to win-- at all costs. Feliciano makes prospective clients feel happy and relaxed, then Eghbali silently creeps in for a quick kill. .

Fan since a Fetus Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Egbahli understands that you have to have a good team on the field for maximum profit, at least according to his interviews. How’s he been handling Chelsea so far? I don’t know that kind of football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 All I can say is if Snyder thinks the UK media will go easier on him than the WP did, he's in for a rude awakening. A VERY rude one. The UK has even less tolerance for men who use power to become 'sex pests' and he will also have the UK's vicious tabloid media following him trying to dig up incriminating evidence. Tanya won't be spared either. He will yearn for the old days when Dave McKenna 'merely' published a list of reasons to hate Dan Snyder and when a friendly US Congress interviewed him from the comfort of his yacht. Snyder ain't seen nuthin' yet. 😆 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
