I remember when I felt the same way. I think it was 2018 or 2019, the team had just went through another scandal or something horrible, and I remember having this exact same conversation with relative strangers on Reddit. We had just resigned ourselves as far as being dudes under 40 years old, and with Dan relatively young-ish, we would always be trapped with him as our owner since no matter what he did, the NFL would stand by him, and he would be in charge until he either got too old or died off.

What a difference just a couple of years makes. Now for the first time in many, many years, I think the fanbase has genuine true hope. It's ironic to think back, because I remember in 1999 being in high school and there being buzz about Dan Snyder, who at the time was young and wealthy, and I remember how awesome that first year was where he went on the spending spree. We went 10-6 and it seemed the future was bright. How quickly things went horrible after that!

I am honestly excited again. Maybe more relieved than excited, maybe a combination of both. Honestly kind of hard to put into words. But it's over now, and the future suddenly seems bright again!
