Snyder Camp Upset!!

[Monkeydad]

Quality off-season thread.


Really, Mr. Snyder should just ignore the childish idiots who wrote the article, especially the "illustrator".

But, I do see him having a reason to feel disrespected, because he was.

You could compile a list of "failings" for EVERY NFL owner if you go in with a bias against/hatred for the person. There are a lot of lies/mistakes in that piece of crap, I mean work.

I don't doubt there's a huge waiting list for season tickets. Nepotism...that happens EVERY WHERE in the league. I think there are a lot of statements in there based on rumors and hearsay also.


But, the media as a whole is a toilet these days, so we shouldn't be shocked a steaming pile like this would be approved for release, but I do think he's justified in being angry about it. However, that's likely what they were looking for, because they'll get attention they can't get on their abilities and (lack of) talents. Dare we say, they were trolling?


Sure, there's a lot to bash him for and he's made some HORRIBLE mistakes over the last decade, but if you've been watching him with a fair mind, he has learned a lot and really changed how he runs things. In most businesses, the owner needs to have control over every aspect of the business. The NFL is a business, but the football decisions need to be made by personnel with football experience rather than the owner, who like Snyder, is more often a businessman instead of a football genius. Many owners take time to, or never learn to delegate the football decisions. (Jerry Jones, Al Davis, Bud Adams...)

Dan Snyder seems to have finally learned that he's not the best person to make these on-field calls and in the last year especially, he's proven that. Vinny is gone and the GM and coach are now calling the shots, as they should be.

I am glad someone authored this article, in fact, I was going to do it if it had not been posted.

The article opened my eyes to the real Daniel Snyder, not the Dan the fan Snyder who claims he just wants to win. It all seems to be motivated by pinching every nickel out the fans and not what some claim that "Dan Loves The Redskins" and would do anything to win.

I believe he does want to win but on the other hand, he wants every penny he can get out of this franchise through questionable marketing strategies. No previous owner of this franchise was so obvious as a barker-like flimflam man - do whatever it takes to turn a buck, no matter who it hurts.

At least that's the perception shared by many, including me.
