Snyder must go.

Nice post, good to hear from someone who has actually worked for Snyder and lived to tell about it.

Welcome to the board. Hope you brought your flame-resistant underwear. After all, it's premature to blame Danny for all this.

The guy hustled hard and deserves what he has. It's just that in the ten years that he has been a part of my life he has done some pretty dumb things.

This is from the cited article, "“For $10,000 you can be one of the boys,” Schar told Snyder. “For $25,000 you can be one of the big boys.”

Snyder wrote a check for $25,000. ""

Sounds like he didn't do this out of the kindness of his heart, but to be one of the big boys.

There's rumors on The Street that a major hedge fund is in serious shit and may go belly up soon. Part of me is hoping it's his.
