Come see the softer side of Snyder

[SmootSmack]

I never really understood why the same people who complain about Snyder meddling too much also complain about his self-imposed rule of not talking to the media during the season.

As for the article, it seems to give the false impression that he suddenly had an epiphany this spring that he's made mistakes, something he apparently never realized before.

Yet, check out this quote from an article on Snyder in the Washington Post in September of 2002

In his first years owning the team, Snyder acknowledges, "I came on too strong. I made mistakes . . . I just do stupid things sometimes." But he points to his remarkable business career as evidence that "I can be patient. I didn't get where I am without being patient." He says he is trying to learn how to apply that quality to his greatest passion. "Winning? It's just me. I like to compete . . . Show me someone who is comfortable with losing and I'll show you a loser."

Like Matty says, the guy wants to win but it's not like he hasn't realized he's made some mistakes along the way.
