I got a Norman jersey when the Nike ones came out, as my Reebok ones were fast becoming obsolete. I got a custom one made for my uncle, but that was it. I got some season ticket holder stuff but that's it. The tickets are the only thing left for me, and as I've detailed, I have a lot of positive memories and with a move to DC or VA I probably am not renewing at that point due to the travel distance, so I was hoping to get in as many seasons as I could until that time. I don't think I can even do the tickets anymore. Yeah, me personally I have no desire to spend money on tickets for this franchise. I’ve only gone for work events or when they were given to me. I’ve felt that way before any of this bc of the dysfunction and below average product on the field for all but 5 of Dan’s 20 years as an owner.

His first 10 years he was too hands on, this decade it seems that except for the McNabb, RG3 and Haskins acquisitions that he’s been too handsoff especially regarding the culture that Bruce developed. Exactly. This all happened under Dan. But Dan comes off looking like a guy that owns a team just so he can walk into any billionaire yacht club and say he does. Such as he liked something, so bought it, walks around touting he owns it. Then leaves it for others to take care of. And he managed to stick it in the worst hands possible to take care of it for him. If he selected anyone else to frontman this team. We wouldnt be here now discussing it. His crime in this is total absolute neglect. And all that happened falls under that neglect, not his doing. Thats on Bruce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan employed Larry Michael for nearly 20 years, Santos for 14 years and Bruce for 10 years. It’s all on him, he assumes the responsibility.

But its on me he perished, just like the goings on there was on Bruce. A woman cried daily 20 feet from Bruces office. And he did nothing.

Dan employed Larry Michael for nearly 20 years and ignored the claims or wasn’t doing enough investigation to know about it, he’s responsible. Dan employed Santos for 14 years and Bruce for 10. He’s responsible for the culture, it’s his franchise. Edited July 17, 2020 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Therein lies the MASSIVE difference. But it was a long trip. And the dog was dead by day 3. How could you have left me in charge all that time after the occurrence? Arnt you worried about your plants? Your cat? Your goldfish? Im still in charge, their safety is on the line here. You would have to come back to see for yourself whats been/being done. Sounds like all kinds of things were running rampant under Snyders neglect for ages. When things started coming to light. He formed an HR Dept, and people started vanishing. Im guessing as proof reared its head. The cheerleader thing seems to have shook him enough to get the ball rolling on all this other. That was 2018. HR Dept started in 2019 and then guys have been let go left and right ever since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seeing players get excited about Redwolves branding is real feel good stuff, if anyone's endorsement should count it's theirs. It would be a real slap in the face if they decided to go with something else now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squeezed on some Georgia peaches. Even bought the hat of a Georgia icon to commemorate the trip. Which I still wear when needed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
