Some people would want to be Logan Roy. Nobody wants to be Dan Snyder.

 

 

Agree but of course not with what happened this season to poor Logan.  😢

 

Logan is grumpy but sharp.  Dan is a moron.

To be fair Logan’s son who Macaulay Culkin’s brother plays likely had his personality based on Dan.

He's way too quick witted to be based on Dan.  But agree his size makes him look like Dan.

Nah, if I had to choose…. he’d be more of a Kendall. Impulsive, self-destructive…. huge aspirations and everyone stabs him in the back. Tell me he’s not in the back of his planes\Range Rovers cranking our rap music thinking he’s  gangsta.

Agree.

 

Logan Roy is/(sadly was) one mean tough son of a ****, but he was also, most certainly, the one thing Daniel Snyder will never be-- a winner.

 

I see Logan as far more of a Squire Jack Kent Cooke  prototype than a model of the disheveled, anti-social, "don't look  directly in my eyes or at my cameltoe",  little baby handed scoundrel that Danny was and always will be.

Yet another JW screw up. Man can't even spell. Clearly that's supposed to be Jurgensens, not Journey. 🙃

The URL for the banner (https://www.washingtonfootball.com/washingtonfootball) on ES has not been updated since the name has been changed from WFT to the Commanders. Probably a low priority to keep ES updated lol

Back to our regularly scheduled programming: i think it's good that Harris has čast aeide net with minority partners. A few of them - like him - will likely be well positioned to go after a team at some juncture in the near future . This will give them some invaluable experience and insights.

We've apparently now had 4 holding calls, 2 false starts and a delay of game. 

 

Fourth and goal from our own 37 yard line, kids.

We also called back to back time outs which resulted in a penalty.

You know Dan actually has to sign for the deal to go through and he could decide not to.  He’s had nothing to do with submitting the Harris bid for review.

 

Dan can still **** this up.

Dan Snyder and his lawyers are lobbying the NFL to limit the release of attorney Mary Jo White's report into sexual misconduct allegations and financial improprieties against the embattled Washington Commanders owner, sources told ESPN.

While there are ongoing questions about legal indemnification for Snyder, and procedural hurdles around vetting the bidding group led by Philadelphia 76ers co-owner Josh Harris, the contents of White's report -- and whether it's released in its entirety and when -- are among the final major stumbling blocks to a sale of the team for $6.05 billion, the sources said. Snyder's main leverage is time -- to try to drag out the process, sources said.

"It's the main remaining issue," a source close to Snyder told ESPN.

A Commanders spokesperson called this report "completely false and a blatant fabrication by someone with no actual knowledge of this matter." An NFL spokesman declined comment.

 

A source with firsthand knowledge of White's inquiry told ESPN that "it appears her work is all but done," and that in the past several weeks White has conducted the final round of interviews with key witnesses. As a result, conversations between Snyder's lawyers, league lawyers and executives over the release of her investigation's findings have intensified.

White, a former U.S. attorney from the Southern District of New York and former chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission, has told lawyers and witnesses involved in the case that she expects her entire report to be made public, not just her findings, sources told ESPN. White was hired by the NFL to conduct the inquiry in February 2022.

"If the findings that are released are the complete findings, drafted by Mary Jo White and not the league, that's one thing," attorney Lisa Banks, who represents several witnesses, told ESPN. "But if what we see is a truncated, watered-down version of the findings, drafted by the league, similar to what we saw with [attorney] Beth Wilkinson's report, we have a big problem."

 

Sources both close to Snyder and in league circles expressed skepticism that Snyder would be able to use his objections to the report's release to hold up the sale of the team to the Harris group. But one owner told ESPN that Snyder "won't go away without a fight." The Washington Post reported in February that Snyder wanted to keep the report confidential, and the sale process has continued in the time since, albeit slower than most team sales. Another source said Snyder's "only leverage" is to threaten his fellow owners that he won't sell the team unless the White report is "killed" -- an option, this person said, "he doesn't have. He isn't holding any cards. And I don't see how the league doesn't release the report."

 

...None of Wilkinson's specific findings were made public in part due to a "common interest agreement" that meant Snyder and the league both had to agree on any information that was released. It is not known whether Snyder has a common interest agreement with the NFL on the White inquiry. When the findings are released, Banks will look for White to publicly validate them. "I would like to hear from Mary Jo White directly that these are her findings in full," she told ESPN.

One of the main areas of White's inquiry dates back to 2009, when Snyder settled an allegation of sexual misconduct with a former team employee for $1.6 million. According to a 2020 report in the Washington Post, the former employee accused Snyder of groping her, asking her for sex and trying to remove her clothes aboard his private plane. Snyder has denied the allegations, calling them "meritless."

 

Last year, however, Snyder's lawyers unsuccessfully attempted to keep the woman from discussing the alleged incident with anyone, including White, by offering to pay her a second undisclosed sum, Brendan Sullivan Jr., the woman's lawyer, told ESPN last October. The woman refused and has spoken to White and her team several times, sources have told ESPN.

White is investigating a second alleged incident of sexual harassment involving Tiffani Johnston, a former Commanders marketing manager and cheerleader, who said in February 2022 that Snyder harassed her at a team dinner, put his hand on her thigh and pressed her toward his limousine. White has interviewed Johnston multiple times.

Snyder has repeatedly refused to be interviewed by White and her team.

 

Following NFL committee meetings this past week in New York, there has been some optimism in league circles that parts of the sales process could be tentatively approved as soon as the league's spring meetings, which begin May 22 in Minneapolis, sources said. Other sources said that the vetting process for the high number of limited partners in the Harris group is too fluid and complicated and will take more time. A special meeting of owners could also be called later this summer to approve a sale, sources said.

Ownership and league sources told ESPN that Snyder's support among fellow owners has dwindled to zero.

 

"His odds of burying the report are the same as his odds of trading for Patrick Mahomes," a source close to Snyder said. "He can try to not sell the team, but that isn't a real option."

I heard a little of  AJ Perez on the radio just now, he said he's heard similar things about the MJW report but I need to relisten to it.

 

Funny we got the WP, ESPN, the Athletic all having some different angles on the sale but they all agree on this.  But Dan's side of this denies this story at every turn. 

 

 

 

[FootballZombie]

Even if the NFL approves the financial stuff Snyder has massive incentive to sit on the sell until this stuff is released and blows over or until the NFL gives him an out and makes it go away. At least that way he can hide behind the NFL shield.

 

If he sells before that he is cheeks to the wind in terms of this investigation.

What a scumbag. Trying to bury the report just proves he has something to hide. I don't think Goodell will 'do him a solid' like last time when the Wilkinson report was summarily executed and dumped in an unmarked grave. Of course, Goofball Goodell may be dumb enough to try and bury this report too...but I think the outrage will be much louder this time...and his contract hasn't been renewed, either.
