When will Synder wake up?

[JoeRedskin]

You know what? You're right. We should just blow this sh** up. One year and one game into a new regime, we should start from f***ing scratch again.

B/c, you know that's what ALL the historically successful teams do.

When will people stop trying to pin a bad game on ONE single fault?

Snyder will wake up at 7 AM, as he usually does.

Well I think he was talking about Donnie Synder, who wakes up at 8am everyday, except on Saturdays, he wakes up at 10am. LOL.

This team will never be a consistent contender as long as DS is in charge.

At least he convinces us each year with his big spending that we will have a better team. I suppose that's better than the alternative. We could be Lions or Raiders fans and have little to look forward to each season.

I'm sure that he also convinces season ticket holders to come out and look at the new ball team based on all the drastic offseason movement.

Money in the bank.

Snyder did not buy the Redskins to win Super Bowls. He bought the Redskins to run the personnel department and win Super Bowls. Making personnel moves is the most important part of the job to Snyder, more important than winning. People who say that Snyder will do whatever it takes to win are quite obviously incorrect. Snyder will not do the most important thing it takes to win: Put professionals in charge of everything. Spending a ton of money doesn't matter if you're not spending it wisely and Snyder simply does not -- and never will -- know enough about professional football to spend money as wisely as teams that are run by people who have spent their entire adult lives learning this stuff.

If winning was the most important thing to Dan Snyder, he'd do the one thing that would help more to win than any other: Fire the personnel department [starting with himself], hire actual NFL professionals, and go upstairs to be an owner like Jack Kent Cooke.

The Redskins will never be a winning franchise as long as Dan Snyder is closely involved in the personnel decisions. Oh, sure, they can get lucky some years, get a few breaks, win some games in a weak conference and find themselves in a playoff game or two. But they will never win a Super Bowl and they will never be a consistent winner [like the Steelers, for example] as long as Snyder is the actual GM of the team.

This all just based on your assumptions that Snyder makes all personnel decisions without any regard to having football guys on his staff, your unsubstantiated assumptions.

[over the mountain]

just b/c snyder likes to have dinners with players and their agents doesnt mean he has any say-so on the personnel decisions. come on guys and gals. dan snyder is not the same guy he was 10 years ago. he has matured and doesnt thrust himself into the spotlight anymore. when was the last time he had tom cruise in his suite for a nationally televised game?

DS is not the problem, the problem with this organization is so obvious i dont even need to spell it out for you.

go skins!!

(sarcasm, just really ranting . .. sorry)

I don't know about all this. Is it really so easy to build a SB champ? Sports is an odd thing--if you win, everything you do looks smart; if you lose, everything you do looks dumb.

I'm not saying Danny isn't at fault, it's just that I don't think there's one set way to do these things, and it's a complex thing. But who among who thought Danny made the wrong move by bringing back Gibbs? That seemed like a no-brainer, but did it bring another Lombardi? I'd say there's only a few NFL teams who aren't on the border of collapse every year: NE, IND, Philly, Pitt, Balt., a few others. The rest make moves each year that look crazy--sometimes they payoff, sometimes not. It's hard to build a team. It's hard to scout talent. It's hard to maintain quality year to year. Danny puts his money in and tries to win, I think. He may be too involved, but it's not that he doesn't want a winner.

Funny we close the only positive thread about Snyder and keep open all the " So and so needs to be held accountable" threads. Go figure. Since we supposedly already have enough negative threads about Snyder I decided to bring forth one closer to the top.

Lighten Up on Snyder had an ironic title. It was not written with even the remotest intent of being a positive thread.

So I don't have the slightest idea why you thought you should bump this thread
