The team won’t change ownership until/unless that happens. The NFL’s only moral compass is money The minority owners are trying to get out. I am hoping somehow that leapfrogs into Snyder having to get out too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stories like this tend to escalate - look at the examples of Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein. First, it's two women. Then another comes out. Then two more. Then, 10 more. Before you know it, you're looking at nearly hundreds of victims - and that's from a single person, let alone an entire organization with thousand of employees. These 16 women are the tip of the spear. They just poked a hole... and now we'll see the structure gushing blood. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scar988 Posted July 17, 2020 Share Posted July 17, 2020 1) What happened to those women is terrible. But it's just the tip of the spear into women in sports being sexually harassed. And it happens way too much. 2) Dan Snyder should be forced to sell the team. And his minority owners should be as well. 3) The Saints did something similar covering up their dealings with the Catholic church and the Bensons should be forced to sell as well. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're going to get their hands on every e-mail and text. Let's be real, there's enough in Dan Snyder's electronic communications over 20 years to bury him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Snyder has an out - admit misdeeds and sell the team, disappearing from the public eye. He walks away with several billions, free to do whatever he wants. It's not like we hear much about Donald Sterling or Jerry Richardson anymore, and they're sitting on huge sums of money following their team sales. But, something tells me Snyder isn't going to take this out. He's going to be forced to sell the team for $86.24 at this rate... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't deflated footballs we're talking about. This is behavior people are protected from, protected by various labor laws. If the NFL doesn't get these voluntarily, the FBI and DOJ will get it all ...by force, if needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will they screw something up? Obviously - this is an NFL investigation after all. But will they screw the whole thing up? I doubt it. They've got too much to gain by getting Snyder out, changing the name, and starting fresh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, when the team is at auction, I'll sell my shares of Gilead and we'll buy the team. Wanna be a GM? Move it to Oklahoma City? Change the name? Play QB?

There's part of me that would be haunted by the image of Dan Snyder sitting in the Carribean harassing a hotel receptionist with my money that I don't think I could get over. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
