Mr. Feinstein, glad you stuck to your guns. It is somewhat ironic but I am currently reading "Next Man Up" and the contrast between Dan Snyder & Steve Bisciotti is quike frankly shocking. Being a New York Giant fan the combination of Cerrato & Snyder in charge has brought me great comfort over the years. One of the best lines Wellington Mara ever uttered and I believe he was talking about Jerry Jones but it could have easily applied to Dan Synder as well is “It's nice to see arrogance humbled,”

Anyone who signs on to work for Dan Snyder sells is soul to the Devil! The pay is good, the conditions are bad and they know that they will be fired before the end of their contracts.

Dan Snyder, Al Davis and Jerry Jones are all the same. Men who do not know half as much as they think they do. Snyder and Jones each believe that success in one business can be easily translated to The National Football League. Jones to his credit has had a modicum of success although rekativly little since the departure/ouster of Jimmy Johnson, while Snyder has only been successful at failure. Sadly Al Davis is just a aging bafoon.

If Mike Shanahan takes the Redskins job and Danny boys money I'l lose a great deal of respect for him. If the saying is "money can't buy happiness" he will certainly be going to the right place.

Peter Gammons said it years ago: when a team is at the bottom, the problem is at the top.

Jim Zorn is an incredibly good man. It really pains me to see him have this experience, his first as a coach, in Washington. For people like Zorn, a couple of million dollars as a buyout to sit on a beach doesn't mean anything. He wants to work, lead and teach. Steve Largent was very outspoken earlier this year about the situation, it would be good to hear his opinions when Zorn's fate is sealed.

Good coaches and general managers don't take orders from anyone. Shanahan is that type of guy and he's smart and tough. He won't last with Snyder six months. Too bad too because the Redskins have had a long history of excellence.
Don't classify Al Davis with Snyder. Al does know football and proved it by the Raiders trips to the super bowl. He's just gotten too old and fought a long battle with a very sick wife. Ed, USNA 61

Ed: You're right about both Al Davis and Shanahan. The Davis situation has been awful for the league. His personal issues with Rozelle have carried over and what was once defiance is now a sad old man trying to hang on and he is killing the Raiders. Someone needs to stage an intervention there before it is too late. If he wasn't such a jerk; you could feel sorry for him. I feel
bad for Raiders fans of that once proud (and now beyond pitiful) franchise.

That's probably the first Weingarten article that I've liked since I can remember.

[quote=SirClintonPortis;782215]Apparently, the article ripped his wife's comments out of context and presented her as a "shill" for Danny in the most cynical manner when her primary purpose was actually promoting some "Fit For You 5k" event.[/quote]

These events are often a double billing.. promote something, talk about everything else with media, etc

This details an account Feinstein had with Snyder after he took over the team. This story tells you everything you need to know about Dan Snyder. He's not changed, and probably never will. How he acted that day is exactly how he's acting now. Let's hope as Redskins fans he's changed on how he operates the football side. If he fails there, I imagine I (and many others) won't be a fan much longer.[/quote]

Yep, still an insecure douche. Remember to thank Bruce Allen for alumni day and the HD board. Snyder the miser would not have done any of that shit if he running the show by himself.

Correct. Here is the exact video that McKenna refers to.

[url=http://voices.washingtonpost.com/dcsportsbog/2010/11/tanya_snyder_redskins_owner_ha.html]D.C. Sports Bog - Tanya Snyder: Redskins owner "has better people around him now"[/url]

Out of the 11:54 of interview, only 3:40 of it was about the Play 60 event. From 3:40 to 6:50 portion of the interview is about NFL and women. The rest of the interview is about DAN SNYDER of all things. Yeah, the biggest portion of the interview is about Dan and their life.


Looks like Dave is right It's amazing how the Snyder agenda crew is turning up the smoke machine to blow it up people's asses. Some people aren't fooled Dan.

Snyder reminds me of a more sinister version of Ari Gold.

The peso's comment especially reminds me of Snyder's "charity defense."

Re: Snyder Camp Upset!!
 

Just out of curiosity, besides immediate members of JKC's family as well as his four ex wives, who was in line to buy the Redskins besides Snyder back in 1999? Was there a waiting list of 200,000 billionaires?

Seriously though who else was up against Snyder in 1999?

Re: Snyder Camp Upset!!
 

Hard to believe but we could have ended up with an even bigger a-hole as owner

Re: Snyder Camp Upset!!
 

I am just trying to imagine what the players, coaches, and GM think about this latest fiasco.

Maybe they don't care. Maybe it doesn't matter to them that their company's top executive displays so little class, humility, and emotional intelligence.

Somehow though I think it matters to someone like...London Fletcher.

And what if it matters, even a little bit, to more players and others in the organization? Could you honestly put forth maximum effort in your job, regardless of how lavishly you were being paid, and produce maximum results--if you knew your company's top executive projected dysfunction? Could you just focus on your own professional excellence if you basically did not respect your leader?

With this degree of consistent dysfunction at the top it's so easy to see why the product the Skins produce is consistently unsuccessful...
