Owners will do everything possible to help each other out but be greedy with money? That could unite a lot of owners against the Commanders....

MikeT14 Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 Quote The 20-page letter, a copy of which was obtained by The Washington Post, freshly details allegations made by Jason Friedman, a former vice president of sales and customer service who worked for the franchise for 24 years. The letter says Friedman told committee members the team maintained “two sets of books,” including one set of financial records used to underreport certain ticket revenue to the NFL. The letter cites documentation that the team’s financial improprieties may have extended to tickets registered in Commissioner Roger Goodell’s name. It references evidence that it says indicates the revenue gained by the team through these practices was known internally as “juice,” and it details allegations that the Commanders improperly attributed such revenue to being derived through a Navy-Notre Dame college football game at FedEx Field or a Kenny Chesney concert, so that it wouldn’t be part of the NFL’s revenue-sharing pool. https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/2022/04/12/washington-commanders-dan-snyder-house-oversight-ftc/?utm_source=reddit.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the Congress investigates the NFL directly too. Did they know, or were they complicit in covering it up? https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21583539-2022-04-12cbm-rk-to-khan-ftc-re-washington-commanders Quote In July 2020, Daniel Snyder announced the hiring of Beth Wilkinson, a prominent D.C. attorney and former federal prosecutor, and her law firm Wilkinson Stekloff, to conduct an internal investigation into “all forms of workplace misconduct” at the Commanders, including sexual harassment as well as “bullying, abusive actions and an employee’s inability to report inappropriate behavior.”6 One month later, the NFL took over the investigation, purportedly to ensure that “the results are thorough, complete, and trusted by the fans, the players, our employees and the public.”7 In a break with recent precedent on handling matters of public interest, the NFL refused to release the full findings of Ms. Wilkinson’s investigation. Instead, after Ms. Wilkinson and her team interviewed more than 150 witnesses and collected hundreds of thousands of documents over the course of ten months, the NFL issued a four-page press release that contained vague and conclusory findings of the investigation, including that the Commanders’ workplace was “highly unprofessional,” that “[b]ullying and intimidation frequently took place,” and that “senior executives engaged in inappropriate conduct themselves.” In releasing these findings, the NFL asserted that “[n]one of the managers or executives identified as having engaged in misconduct is still employed at the club.”8 To date, the NFL has refused to provide the Committee with the full findings of Ms. Wilkinson’s investigation, and both the NFL and the Commanders have taken steps to withhold key documents and information from the Committee. Faced with the NFL’s and the team’s obstruction, the Committee has obtained information and documents from other sources, including numerous former employees. The Committee’s investigation has revealed a longstanding culture of impunity among top executives at the Commanders—from pervasive sexual harassment and other workplace misconduct to potential financial misconduct. 9 Sounds like they're acting as one organization to me.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone may... but if history has taught us anything it's that it most likely won't be anyone at the crux of responsibility. The best case that the higher-up(s) may see some real responsibility for this might be Madoff, and even then it took a rich guy doing over a bunch of other really rich people for that to actually happen. But as a general rule of thumb, the rats take care of their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worried about the other side finding enough money to defend themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the NFL/Snyder was actually good at bribing people, we wouldn't find out about this stuff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
