Dan Snyder sells Commanders to Josh Harris

[Spring in Fialta]

He's a wacko.


I've repeated said on this site that nobody in this city likes snyder. It's the truth. I've lived all my life here, over 40 years and I've not seen a single fan enjoy Dan Snyder's ownership. Ever. Me thinking Snyder would never sell is mutually exclusive from my dislike, like everyone else in this city, of Snyder.

Trust me when I tell you this. Nobody in this town likes him. Nobody. And they never did. They coped with him. Some fans quit the team because of him, mostly the older generation. Some moved on to another team. Some stayed fans even though he still ran the team. But nobody liked him. They tolerated him.

This is consistent with what I've said in nearly 15 years of commentary on this site. My position has never changed. Snyder is a POS. Many of us didn't think we'd see the day that he sold. We thought he would keep it forever like Peter Angelos or some other shitbag.

You can question anything else I say. But I follow this team for a living. I live in this area. Do not question my judgement and perception of the area, because I've dealt with the people here daily, and interacted with the fans here for 40 years. I know what I'm talking about.

Don't really care.

Issues in the legal negotiations between the NFL and representatives for Washington Commanders owner Daniel Snyder threaten to complicate the approval and closing of Snyder’s $6.05 billion sale of the franchise to a group led by Josh Harris, according to two people familiar with the conversations between attorneys for the league and Snyder.

They absolutely should. New ownership new era.

I thought there was a rule that it can't be done more than once in a certain amount of time, like 5 yrs or 10 yrs

If there was, that's a silly rule, but they should grant an exception.

Nice how the NFL was able to bury this by dropping it as the sale finalizes.

Glad Snyder is out. Now women can feel safer about working for the Commanders after years of abuse and harassment.

Harris coming off a bit Snyder like here

New owner. So maybe I can give him the benefit of the doubt. Since this would be a franchise setting decision.
So long as he is just sitting in and allowing the staff to conduct the interviews.

But this would create a scenario where his own personal desires will likely come out as to who he wants like Tepper last year with Young.

that's nothing like snyder, he isn't going to make the decision on who to draft, he just wants to be there to learn
