News: PFT: Synder out as Commanders owner?

[CWR]

I would be very surprised if Jerry votes to remove him. I believe they are pretty close

Plus why wouldn't you want a clown running your division rival? No one in the NFCE should be voting to remove Snyder.

I will never forget his first regular season game as team owner in 1999. The camera kept showing him smiling from ear to ear during the game as they were beating us, even going up 21 points at the start of the fourth quarter. He just couldn't contain his excitement. He looked just like an 8 year old on Christmas day getting all the new toys he wanted.

We all know what happened after that. I wish they had shown his face after Rocket caught the touchdown in overtime. It would have been priceless.

I was there for that game. Right behind the Cowboys bench. Missed my flight home.

Report: NFL owners are “counting votes” toward a possible ouster of Daniel Snyder

Long time coming.

Please take JJ too!!

If he is forced to sell, the nail in his coffin will not be all of the sex scandal stuff. Very few owners want investigations into that part of their lives. Jerry included. It will be the fact that he kept different sets of books so that he did not have to share revenue fully with the other league owners. When you rob robber barons they get mad.

I was about to say the same thing!!

 

[Creeper]

I understand there are multiple sides to this and I can be sympathetic to many of them, but I am against a group of owners forcing out another owner unless there is a serious infraction of some rules or laws. If Snyder did, in fact, hide revenue from the other owners basically stealing their chares of profits, then that is something I where I can see the owners forcing him to sell the team. But all these other allegations regarding the way he managed his team, or others managed his team, that is not enough for force him to sell his team. Somewhere along the line there has to be respect for the legal ownership of property. Not liking the guy should not be adequate grounds for forcing him out. These things tend to be a slippery slope.

At this point I do not believe the Washington team stiffed the rest of the owners on revenue sharing. I have no idea if Snyder would do such a thing, but I am skeptical that he could do such a thing and no one would notice. I imagine the league pays at least some attention to revenue payments coming in from all the teams. No one noticed Washington's "envelope" was a little light lately? I am going to reserve judgement until I see more evidence that some anonymous tipster.

I also think congress has better things to do than get involved in football or how NFL owners behave. Just because congress has authorized the anti-trust exemption for the NFL should not mean they can investigate anything, even things outside anti-trust issues. If an owner is stealing from other owners, let the league deal with it. Congress has a country to worry about, football is the least of it.

 

[Blast From The Past]

Little dummy Danny might lose his team....good riddance.

 

[Corso]

Brother Corso, you don't seem to understand as much as you dislike Jerry and think you are in the majority with that opinion, there are just as many or more Jerry supporters. Jerry will never be in danger of having his ownership of the Cowboys stripped from him.

I know. I was being delirious.

Partied too hard afterwards?

I prefer that Snyder stay. I prefer division rivals to be managed by morons.

 

[ClappingCarrot]

Cowboys fans rooting for his removal are delusional. Keeping Snyder in Washington keeps that franchise awful, and that's what we want.

Hope the man lives to be 100.

 

[erod]

Welp, that means it'll only be the Cowboys run that way.

 

[TheCritic]

You guys are weird! The Washington Commanders have never played a single NFL game. The team some of you are talking about appears to have been wiped clean from history. Maybe this thread belongs in the fantasy football section.

 

[Motorola]

I would be very surprised if Jerry votes to remove him. I believe they are pretty close

But now Snyder is accused of withholding revenue from Jones' team and the other 30 franchises. That could sour \ sever that relationship (if there is one).

 

[CCBoy]

Since integrity and respect are with those of us in the real world...the door should start to slam on his backside, right now!

 

[ESisback]

Guilty or not, he’s been marked. They want him gone.

 

[plasticman]

Emmitt's helmet rule.

Erik Williams Rule - Hands to the face

Mel Renfro Rule (1978) - a tipped pass can now be legally caught by an offensive player.

Deion Sanders Rule - A contract rule to address excessive backloading. Proration of signing bouses can no longer exceed the base salary for that year.

 

[RS12]

That is one of Jerry's best buddies you are talking about. One of the creepiest photos ever:

 

[ESisback]

Certain owners with influence want him gone. We may never know the truth.
