Amazing the amount of venon here. Tagliabue hates Snyder? Puhleeez!

Excuse me, but if there is any owner he hates it would be Al Davis. Snyder has made one NFL franchise worth more than $1B according to Forbes and that makes all the owners happy and that makes Tags happy.

If this story were about Jerry Jones, 99% of the people here would want Richard Justice to earn a Pulitzer Prize for his deathless prose. Read it for what it is; honest criticism of a blowhard owner who has yet to achieve anything in the NFL despite his bombast.

And once again, let me point out to the people who say that Snyder has been just fine for the last coulpe of years, how rabidly did Steve Spurrier want to sign Darryl Russell last year? The corect answer is not at all because Steve Spurrier probably did not know Darryl Russell from his other brother Darryl.

When the Skins win a Super Bowl - and they will eventually - the real test for Danny Boy will not be to restrain himself from making a bigger public ass of himself by mooning soneone or kicking Tags in the 'nads, it will be sharing the spotlight with Joe Gibbs. That is what broke up Jerry Jones and Jimmy Johnson and those guys were football teammates no less. Snyder is merely s jock-sniffer who amassed enough money to buy the team he used to dream about sniffing jocks for. When they win, he will ABSOLUTELY demand sone limelight and then you will have to see what happens with the intense but modest and self-effacing Coach Gibbs. That, folks, will be the acid test.
