Another factor that may prevent a stadium at the RFK site.

Man, Cleveland's gotta be feeling better about that trade every day.
Thank God he's not a ShitWaffle.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

No shot Snyder volunteers to speak. Congress would have to subpoena him.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

”invitation”……garbage….

I'd love to see Goodell's "thank you note" to Little Danny after he received that invitation.

Would Snyder perjuring himself in front of Congress be enough for the NFL to dump him? lol

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Is he only under oath under subpoena?

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

No. You talk before a congressional hearing you are sworn in.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

No. You talk before a congressional hearing you are sworn in.

I don’t see any way Snyder is going to subject himself willfully to that exposure. They will have to Subpoena him I bet.

That would be the first REAL foothold of hope to get him out.

The NFL may have him then in terms of ”strongly suggesting” he sell, or face Congressional heat and testimony.

No

 

[g00n]

No

So you think an owner lying before congress about stuff that's already got him on the hot seat won't move the needle?

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

No

lol… yes it would.

Yes there is no shot that Snyder or anyone from the NFL would volunteer to appear. They would have to be subpoenaed.

Disagree. I think Goodell will want to play nice, and I'd bet he'd rather respond to the "invitation" than face a subpoena. I suspect the delay in his response -- and the real battle -- is convincing the Danbag to do the same.

ETA: To CCR's point, Snyder not following the Commish's lead on responding to the committee's request would give Goodell a serious weapon to use against him.

This.

Can't recall...did the MLB players come by invitation or were they forced to testify on steroids? Bad look if you're dragged in kicking and screaming to defend yourself as an innocent person, at least when it comes to these matters (not having a "hostile" work environment).

Quick google says Canseco, Schilling volunteered they would testify, Canseco asking for immunity. Raphael Palmeiro and others fought the subpoenas and tried to narrow scope.

Selig to testify; documents turned over to panel

Major League Baseball handed over a box of subpoenaed documents Monday to the House panel investigating steroids in the sport.

Personally I dont think Congress has as much standing to go after Snyder for alleged book cooking (maybe theres a tax evasion component) vs a interstate illegal drug ring that the steroids were about.

Im just guessing here
