Unlike many Redskins fans, I don't think Dan Snyder is the anti-Christ. Dan seems to have certain redeeming qualities as a person (e.g., starting a fund for Taylor's daughter and giving players and staff access to his plane for personal reasons) and a coach (e.g., willingness to open up his pocketbook). Moreover, as an owner, I think Dan Snyder has learned a lot and come a long way since 2000.

However, Dan also often acts very childish. Sending ice cream to Mike Nolan, threatening to ruin Coles' career, poking fun at members of the press at dinners, etc. are not exactly signs of maturity. So, while Snyder is not Hitler and is not a horrible owner, he does things that make it very hard for people to give him credit.
