OT: Washington Commanders: 2022 Offseason - Part 1 - Commander Carson Edition

There no way Snyder saves face with his fellow owners after this report. He's going to have no choice but to sell. And you can bet that as long as the team is still owned by the Snyder family, agents will direct their clients not to go to Washington. He's done.

Getting the states involved is awesome too. The election is a long way off with how fast this has been moving, and even if the committee drops it the states can carry on.

Keep saying it….hopefully it will come true!

Football Team is their heritage and tradition. I'm not going to call them by this new-fangled "Commanders" name. I will respect team history.

You were honestly right saying they should have just kept football team and they wouldn’t come up with anything better and I refused to believe that. I’m going to reserve judgment on the uniforms till we see them in action. I’m OK with the helmets

Redskins is their heritage and tradition. I will respect team history by always referring to them accordingly…

Hahah this is why you pull every possible thread. Watergate started as a break-in and was a non-story for months.

If not for all the pressure and probes over the last few years I doubt anything would've come out. The pile-on could pay off.

No, that team died with JKC. This monstrosity has been wearing the Skins' ill-gained skin for years. With Football Team, this monster finally developed its own identity.

Always call state police, tell them what's up, and ask for Safety Service Patrol. VDOT will send one out and they'll set up behind you, and help if you want.

Edit: In Maryland, they'll send CHART. CHART can even relocate your car to a safer area.

Thanks for the tip. I was debating either calling a tow truck or changing the tire and don't know what got in me to decide to change it. I was never one to do idiotic things even back as a teenager so definitely the stupidest life threatening one.

From the above WaPost article:



Juice? Sounds juicy.

If there is actual real evidence, proof, that Snyder has cheated his fellow owners, I can't see how he could survive that and keep the team. Even if its small potatoes, it should be a death sentence for his ownership. "should be"... We'll see what the NFL actually does here.

Almost nobody realizes that VSP/MSP/VDOT/SHA are happy to help motorists. It's just not a resource that gets advertised or talked about. Sometimes people call in, but most assists come from police or CHART/SSP finding disabled cars on their own. I know when I was in driving school they were like "Good luck! Try to avoid dying!" and that was about it, no talk of other resources.

Virginia State Police: dial #77
Maryland State Police: dial *77

(I think MSP is * instead of #, I might be thinking of WVA or PA)

911 is for emergencies, but the 77 lines take you right to dispatch offices to report traffic issues or request non-emergency aid.

Oh, and if you ever run out of gas they'll give you a gallon to get you to a gas station.

It sounds like they were plucking "abandoned" deposits for a slush fund and hopefully it's found to be illegal, but I've got a sneaking suspicion there's a clause in every ticket holder's contract stipulating something about refund forfeiture. I may be wrong. Any one have a contract handy?

I’m sure some won’t want to vote him out, I bet Snyder knows things about a few owners that they’d probably not want brought to light

If he doesn't yet I'm sure he's probably calling his stable of private investigators.

I think the big thing is revelations that they were doing shady stuff to dodge sharing all the revenue owed.

The Cliff Fletcher move; investigate it yourself and declare you couldn't find anything.

There will need to be more for the NFL to act because Snyder will fight it and he will fight dirty.

What other owner in sports has had this many scandals and investigations and survived?

Probably... but one has to wonder what must he do for the NFL to simply bite the bullet and rid themselves? Hiding revenue from them seems like it should be enough. But then again they've all stood by and watched him turn their most lucrative franchise into a dreadful mess, so who knows what they really care about? A few dollars revenue, or protecting their dirty underbelly from seeing sunlight?

I’m not sure if you’re joking or not but this seems spot on. I could easily see Ron and co take a player with less talent with a military background over a superior player with potential off field issues. That’s good and all and character definitely matters but sometimes you have to take a risk, look at Parsons last year…

I was 100% serious, FYI.

Not joking

 

[EroCaps]

Don’t you cocktease me with getting rid of Snyder.

Don’t you do it.

 

[Ridley Simon]

It’s rather remarkable that one person can be this shady. It’s just layers and layers and layers
