Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread

I think Snyder using his private jet to make it easier for all involved to meet, seal the deal, etc. is a nothing burger. He is still the owner, so who else is going to do that? Or maybe they all should have just flown coach on Southwest...

I don't think any of what has transpired over the last couple days means he's not selling now. We have earned the right to be paranoid though...

Right 100

And no offense to solid snake but has not been the most level headed poster over the years =)

Snyder flying everyone around on a scheduled airline would appear cheap, even 1st class. Whatever he is, he's never been that cheap. Until a buyer is confirmed he's just acting like the owner and wouldn't want to be seen to be not helping get the guy they want. I agree there's nothing about this says he's not selling. Likewise, if he took it off the market, it wouldn't be a surprise.

Anyway, he's got to be a big improvement over Turner, even just experience wise. As a few have said, he can't have spent all that time in KC working with Reid and not learned something. Reid wouldn't have kept him around.

Wright using the team jet is definitely a nothing burger. Until the team is sold it's just business as usual.

Moved to the thread I meant to post in (I'm struggling). My bad.

4 bids is good action for a sale this big. The big question is Bezos one of the four because he is very interested. He coming in at a point with a bid

Snyder isn't getting 7 billion without a stadium...............

I think what is going in Snyder's favor is the market. Sports in general see the East Coast as a desirable TV market (see Big 10 deal that brought in Rutgers and Maryland).

On the other hands, potential buyers are aware that Snyder is in a quasi "must sell" situation. With that in mind, they are not going to be over bid for the team.

I agree. The fact that a new stadium is in order, and the new owner will have to have an additional $1 Billion in funds set aside for that, is another obstacle that has to be cleared. I am not sure someone is going to give him $1.4 Billion over market value, knowing they also have to get a stadium built.

Since 2018 Washington has had 12 different QBs start a game. That’s 4 more than 2nd place Denver , Miami and Indy.
