Re: Rumors circulating about Jeff Bezos buying the team

Can you imagine having the privilege to own one of the greatest sports organizations of all time, and then completely squandering that opportunity, and failing to the extent that he has? It's nothing short of amazing.

He's failing that task successfully, considering what he paid for the team and what he's gonna sell it for.

The most despised owner in the NFL, fucked everything up you possibly can, and he's still gonna make billions on his investment. Congrats to him, now get the fuck out.

Re: Rumors circulating about Jeff Bezos buying the team

Two finalists?

Jeff Bezos and Josh Harris are the two finalists to buy the Washington Commanders; NFL owners will discuss Dan Snyder after new reports - Hogs Haven

If Bezos wants the team, it will happen.

Guaranteed.

Commanders rank as NFL's worst in new NFLPA survey of players' working conditions. Full report here: nflpa.com/washington-com…

Money so tight that food and travel/ hotels are worst in league apparently.

Reason why I want someone like Bezos to take over, someone who can afford to invest in facilities and stadium not some guy taking on huge loans just to buy the team

Whatever Snyder does, he fucks up. Just an absolute scumbag in every sense of the word. Miserable little shithead.

Re: Rumors circulating about Jeff Bezos buying the team

Snyder is under investigation for bank fraud. When I hear the words.. FBI, Feds, IRS.. I would be terrified. Snyder is in some real trouble if he in fact signed off in a 50 + million dollar loan and didn't also have the minority owners also sign it as well. He apparently did this behind their backs.

As someone who deals with data that includes survey responses, it should be pointed out that the score should also state/reflect the response rate. I can't see it mentioned per team, but 1300 overall is c. 50% (assuming all players are NFLPA members, and all were surveyed). No way to determine the per team rate from what I can see, so that has to be considered.

However, anything in the region of 50% is a good and indicative result and its likely that the worst teams will have the highest response rate (more likely pissed off players, pissed off = more likely to complain). If so this looks really bad.

Ranked #1 in strength coaches. Always make sure your players have their PEDs

Fraud??? Wouldn't that be embezzlement?
