Minority Owners of the Skins Want Out.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't want Bezos as an owner. He's gonna pay 5 bil for the Redskins, come in and change the name, build a new stadium on his own dime, and then charge us fans more to recoup his investment. He's gonna price the blue collar fans (like myself) right out of the stadium.

...and insert his undesirable politics like he does with Amazon.

Michael Wilbon says he won't be surprised if Dan Snyder is forced to sell Redskins (https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/redskins/michael-wilbon-says-he-wont-be-surprised-if-dan-snyder-forced-sell-redskins)

I listened to him on the Fan yesterday and he was mostly spewing BS.

Went on about how horrible the Redskin name is. Well, Michael Wilbon, if that is true, please tell us why you were a regular commentator on Redskins Report for years?

We already know Snyder is a proven loser. I'm fine with getting him out at any cost.

He has a 20 year track record of losing and he's the only constant in this era of futility. Just having him out as owner will bring back fans.

Even just hearing the notion surface is glorious.

Wait a second ...





Should we really be calling them "minority owners"??



I mean ... that can be taken so many ways. And not many of those ways are really ... good.





We are trying to be a non-offensive franchise now, right?



Oh stop man. Stop trying to act like social inequality is a joke. It is getting old.
People are fighting for respect, dignity, and equality. But every time I turn around someone on this page is acting like it has no actual basis in fact. “Whats next eagles are going to be offended “ ? All that bullshit as if social inequality is a hoax. I mean I honestly can not wrap my head around the lack of understanding coming from so many posters on here. The willingness to down play it and act like we are the victims because our football team is going to change names. It is sickening.

Personally, since this is just a sports team, I would just like Snyder to change the name and get on with it. There are some good choices out there and Snyder can either pick a bland name (Warriors, Red Hawk) or something more bold (Redtails, Warthog, Raptors, Mohawk).

Snyder is making this choice because of money. Eventually the teams website may try to play this as being Snyder’s idea.

I distresses me that some folks think this is the end of the world sort of issue. We are in the middle of a global pandemic, which in the end will probably kill more Americans than in WWII. We are still involved in limited combat in two countries, although the press is not covering it too much. We also seeing more social upheaval in the U.S. than the late’60’s! This has been a TOUGH FREAKING YEAR.

I really like the Redskins name, the team has a storied history. I understand why it hurts ppl who don’t want it to change. But it’s time, so Snyder make the decision, take the flack and false praise. Then everyone can get back to get ready for the PS and finally football!

Just like the Draft tv program this year, which I thought was the best televised draft EVER (so much emotion and real life stories), versus the canned Vegas style hoopla of precious years. It may be different in some ways but:
AMERICA NEEDS FOOTBALL THIS YEAR. Let’s get to it!

This was from yesterday...

@thomloverro
Something strange is happening. What is it? Fred Smith led an effort to try to get Dan Snyder to sell the majority ownership of #Redskins to him and other investors, sources told me today. Snyder wouldn't budge. Now Smith and investors want out.

Dan will never sell

Not unless the other NFL owners vote him out which I don't see happening right now. Not unless the franchise continues to hurt the overall NFL brand.
