Re: Report: New harassment allegations against the Redskins

Excellent article. Another factor for Goodell is that Snyder has ZERO chance of getting a stadium deal with any DC, Maryland or Virginia politicians. No political figure, in EITHER PARTY, will help Snyder now or in the foreseeable future (next 0-10 years) to get a stadium - even if Dan Snyder pays for it himself! Snyder offered a stadium deal last year to any state (including DC), with Snyder paying for the whole thing, IF they would give Snyder gambling rights in the stadium. But the allegations by over 40 employees against Snyder have made him a political pariah. The politicians know that the fans hated him BEFORE these Wash Post articles. Snyder has squeezed the fans for 20 years for every penny- extremely high tickets prices, some of the highest stadium food/beverage prices in the NFL. Snyder also was happy to sell tickets to opposing team fans, which has made the “home game” advantage a joke. Last year, every home game had many more opposing team fans than our fans. The legendary home fan waiting list has long disappeared and Snyder has had to close whole sections of FEDEX to keep the stadium from looking more deserted than it is. Although the expert cited in that article gives Snyder only a 50/50 chance of surviving this latest crisis, I think it is far lower. Sure, Snyder is promising to change. Why didn’t he do it anytime in the past as the team floundered year after year? Snyder has only changed when under heavy pressure from a scandal, or faced with FINANCIAL PRESSURE. Is that the kind of owner the fans want? As the article says, a new owner will be viewed as a SAVIOR after Snyder’s reign of terror. I can only think that the current NFL investigation will find MORE allegations and more misbehavior by Snyder or by those using his name. I firmly believe that Snyder will be forced to sell the team after another mediocre season. The fans, media and owners will rejoice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
