I really don't know him very well myself and I have some bad stories, that most of you probably don't know about. But most people ibtak to who know him have nothing but good things to say about him as a person. He just doesn't that type of personality that conveys it. Do I wish some things were different? Sure. Who doesn't? But honestly, much of the hatred is based on speculation and ignorance to the world of sports ownership and the relation between sports teams and the media. What this thread is originally about is stuff that I've dealt with many many times over the past 15 years with leagues, teams, and even players. But it's understood that isn't brought up in public. Yet no one seems to say anything about the post's actions here. But again that's largely due to ignorance people have that this type of situation has never happened before. Call me an apologist if you want, but I'd rather be that then someone who compares protecting a brand with systematically executing dogs.

I mean come on do you really think Im comparing a guy that’s merely protecting his brand to a guy that is systematically killing dogs? No im comparing a guy who;

sues fans, sues small newspapers, sells expired peanuts to fans, bans signs for safety concerns while also giving out promotional signs, kills trees to view the potomac river, buys up media outlets to control criticism, allows raciest depictions of Asians at 6 flags, tricks fans to coming to Fedex for special events then charges them to park, nickel and dimes his own employees, nickel and dimes fans, operates the Redskins like his fantasy team, ET CETERA…...

to a guy who systemically killed dogs.

A lot of the things Danny does are purely business decisions, I respect that. He needs to protect his brand, I respect that. But I don’t think hes a piece of shit because of one thing, rather I base my opinion on him from things hes done over the last 10 years or so. All he has to do is stop.
