How Dan Snyder views Commanders' title run from afar: 'He ... hates it'

Crazy how he was trying to tank the sale right up until the last minute. Sounds like we have saint Joe to thank.

This part I had never heard before, can you link to it or give me the TLDR (Too long didn't read) version?

In the days leading up to the close, sources said, Dan and Tanya Snyder were pressed by confidants and friends, including Hall of Fame coach Joe Gibbs, the three-time Super Bowl winner who supported Snyder even during the darkest times, to complete the deal out of love for the team and fans.

Associates reminded Snyder in those wee hours that the primary reason to sell was his family. The past few years of relentless revelations about bad behavior and questionable ethics, largely of Snyder's own doing, had taken a toll on his three children. Tanya reminded her husband that the sale would relieve their emotional distress. A confidant warned Snyder, "The only way your legacy gets worse is if you rip this back now."

Quiet minutes passed. Tanya said, "Dan, I know this is hard. This was a dream."

With that, Snyder relented. He gave the go-ahead to Jason Wright, then the Commanders' team president (he declined to comment for this story), to share the bank information so the Harris Group could wire the $6.05 billion. It was finally official: Harris and his fellow investors owned the Washington Commanders. The league had finally pushed out its most hated owner. The rally the next day at FedEx Field commenced as planned.

Months later, Tad Brown, CEO of HBSE, told confidants, "We don't get the Commanders if not for Joe Gibbs.”

I think I can safely speak for everybody here when I say that Dan Snyder can go fuck himself with a barbed wire bat.[emoji115] [emoji115] [emoji115] This
