I do not think it is about the team’s culture. From what I have heard the culture was actually damn good.... [emoji849]

Edit: damn Mooby I was driving and couldn’t say this fast enough apparently. Probably good as you used links....

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

It'll certainly be interesting when it breaks. The fact that the other owners want out speak the greatest to me. Almost like they're suddenly aware of something and want as far away as possible. Whatever it is, it reeks of scandal and massive disorganization (predictably). Not drawing any conclusions but the smoke is thick.

[quote=mooby;1255391]Apparently Diana Russini is the media the tweet is referring to about the media (Russini) fucking the FO (Scot McC and possibly others) in exchange for scoops. [URL="https://ftw.usatoday.com/2015/09/dianna-russini-scot-mccloughan-jessica-tweets-lewd-apology"]McC's wife sent a tweet to Russini[/URL] once asking her how many bj's she had to give to get a story.[/quote]

That's old news and isn't even shocking in the mainstream media, especially ESPN.

Whatever it is, that might explain how a coach as incompetent as Jay Gruden kept his job for 5+ years. He may have been involved, or an integral part of something going on, or knew something on someone.


I also urge everyone not to get caught up in this media teasing...if they had a huge story, why not just come out with it instead of holding it for days and days? Usually, media companies race to release something first...so perhaps this is all just BS to get clicks and Twitter likes for a week as they tease a story that's not even a story. Josh Norman is always angry at someone too.

Reminds me of the Russian hoax reporting.

From what I was told Jay was def involved and that makes sense to why he lasted so long.

Also got this
"I hope one comes forward as I know Larry Michael had a lawsuit against him. They settled with the lady of course but it seems more like a buyout to stay quiet. I hope the article exposes all of this stuff. I remember hearing about Mike Shanahan involved with after game activities in the suits as well."

Everybody knew about it when it happened but it still got swept under the rug.

I enjoy how you single out Gruden in this post, like it's not going to involve Allen, Snyder, Schaeffer, Hess, Larry Michael, Santos, his assistant, McCloughan, and everybody else in the FO for the last 10 years. Everybody knew about it. Even the other media knew about it.

I didn't single out Jay. As you said everyone knows the FO had slimeballs, none bigger than Bruce Allen. I just said it might explain how he stayed around so long. He should have been fired years earlier based on his job performance...which is USUALLY the Redskins way going all the way back to Marty Schottenheimer who should've stuck around longer.

Bro, every legit beat reporter for the Redskins is saying this is bad. This isn't the WaPo dangling a carrot, it sounds like a definitive report on the toxic culture at Redskins Park. If they're going to drop something that big, guarantee they are taking their time to get everything squared away first. It would destroy their credibility even more if they released it and then other sources came out and said they were lying.

Their credibility is already destroyed. :D


But yeah, I won't be shocked by anything involving Snyder and the FO.

Hopefully it doesn't deal a fatal blow to our franchise while it's already down.

You're assuming someone wants to buy it.

So let's say the league forces Snyder to sell like the Clippers owner who did FAR less.

Do we think it's possible for the minority owners, if not involved in the scandal (they likely are though), could just buy Snyder's share?

While I do want new ownership, I very nervous about Bezos taking over. He's built Amazon into a giant, but also has had questionable business practices himself at time...and might know less about football then Daniel Snyder. Snyder with all of his horrible decision making, at least was a fan of the Redskins going in.

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

I wonder if this story is so embarrassing that the other NFL owners force Snyder out.

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

Larry Michael's retirement not even being acknowledged by the team is fishy, so it's likely he's involved in it. He was always Snyder's YES man on everything, perhaps for a reason other than blind optimism.

Either Snyder hates him, or Larry knows things, perhaps that HE did himself.

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

Also the timing of Larry Michael all of a sudden resigning seems so odd. He is either involved in something or is so disgusted he wants out.

It was a huge red flag when they didn't even offer a "thanks for your service" announcement or anything. 15 years of service and a "no comment" exit? Either his name is in the report or he doesn't want to try and spin this pot of shit into gold.

I wouldn't be surprised if Bruce is the main source for this.

Also the minority owners wanting out is very telling. The 3 of them have basically turned their backs on Dan. They obviously know what's going on.

This could turn out like Jerry Richardson's scandal with the Carolina Panthers that forces Snyder out. Yet another item that came to the Redskins from the Panthers LOL.

It sounds really bad. Really Damning. The other owners wanting out was the biggest sign. They know what is coming. Dan might be on his way out, guys.

Yes i think it's possible, remember there was that story that initially the minority owners went to Dan and asked him to sell his ownership in the team, and he declined, so they were on board with buying the rest of the team had Dan been willing to sell.

Just about every rich person has questionable business practices. I'm sick of Snyder's shit show, I just want a new owner and I hope the NFL forces Snyder out.

Given our current climate, I can see NFL sponsors pressuring the NFL to get rid of Snyder.

[quote=Chico23231;1255408]Sell the team to Gibbs[/quote]

Please, no. In all due respect to the legendary Joe Gibbs, he is 80 years old himself, and I am sure he has no interest in taking up the full-time responsibilities that being an owner would entail.

Gibbs loves his family and being as close to them as possible. I don't think he would be willing to have so much time spent away from them, and traveling all over the country at his age.

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

Gibbs would be part of an ownership group if it did happen, he doesn't have the $$ to buy the majority share.

Re: Redskins General 2020 NFL Thread
 

Bezos will likely buy the team, since everyone knows he wants in on the NFL, and the NFL wants to have the connection for potential streaming deal with Amazon.

Also, I don't get people getting all worked up because Bezos is a liberal. Look at the late Paul Allen, he was a liberal and that didn't affect his management of the Seahawks.

As I said, I'm sick of Snyder's shitshow, and I just want new ownership.

I think most people are more worried that Bezos could be a worse owner than Dan, if that is even possible. I don't think being Liberal has anything to do with it.

I think it does, people just don't want to say it, and some imply it. But whatever

You are right though, we don't know what we'll get from Bezos or any new owner. I would hope that a new owner would learn from Snyder's mistakes, and as I said, I'm so sick of Snyder that I just want someone new.
