Gibbs as an "owner" of his race car team is really good and smart. He's not the only coach here who didn't stand up to Dan Minority owners get a preferred parking spot, complimentary fruit basket on game days and unrestricted access to the executive wash rooms. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He deserves a second induction into Canton for that. I'm not talking about on the field stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Joe Gibbs wants to bask in that some -- he deserves it as much any Redskins luminary if not more. I didn't love that Gibbs got along with Dan. But also I didn't hear Gibbs defend Dan unless i missed something during the investigation -- and considering Dan supposedly consults with Gibbs from time to time, it wouldn't shock me if Gibbs advised Dan its time for him to sell. By all accounts, Dan is a classy guy with the utmost integrity. Yeah he was fooled by Dan but he's not the only trusting person who was.

Fan since a Fetus Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 So most of us believed Davis was a slime ball fool that didn’t have any standing in the negotiation process. Now it has been confirmed. We can all breathe a little sigh of relief. Hopefully, this ball picks up some steam the next few weeks and comes to a conclusion.

BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 (edited) I'm just laughing to myself thinking that Snyder will take his pile o' cash and try to buy an English soccer team. If he thought the media here was unfair to him, he is in for a truly eye-opening experience once he has to deal not only with the traditional UK press (which is hostile enough) but the daily tabloids as well. The UK tabloids are second-to-none when it comes to harassment. None of them will take too kindly to a carpetbagging Yankee billionaire accused of multiple nefarious activities ranging from being a sex pest to financial shenanigans. It will be like going from getting a GED to trying to get an advanced PhD in astophysics. If Tanya didn't like getting booed at the Packers game...well, my advice would be to invest in some good earplugs.

NickyJ Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 At this point, who hasn't been counseled by Joe Gibbs? What even is his counsel? Is it asking him "Hey man, if I buy the team, would you come to Ring of Honor meetings and shake my hand?" Do people have to kneel and kiss each of Gibbs' Super Bowl rings before they're allowed to speak? I like the dude, but whenever I hear 'so and so spoke to Joe Gibbs before he joined the team', it makes me think of him as some old prophet who hasn't been a part of society for 20 years sitting in a cave on mountain top, waiting to dispense the priceless knowledge of "the fans like it when you win" and "the team colors are burgundy and gold." 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
