Joe also spent more than a decade dealing with Jack Kent Cooke. Now, JKC was obviously a better owner than DS and certainly a classier individual. But he still had a titanic ego and life outlook out of the early 50s.

Win 3 Super Bowls with that breathing down your neck and you probably see Danny as bush league.
Cooke owned the team when there was no internet or social media. The horror stories about him were mostly kept out of the public eye. Had Cooke owned the team in this kind of era it would not be pretty.

Agree. The timing couldn't have been better for Joe. He needed the money and Dan obliged.

Re: Snyder to Stay on a Owner

I've been a fan of this team for 30 years. When I was young playing playground football I had my rypien jersey on proudly, and tried to perfect throwing with my finger on the tip of the ball.
Over those 30 years, and the amount of losing seasons we have had over the last 20, this is by far the most embarrassing and dark time to be a fan of this team. I can deal with the on field garbage....but when combined with this off the field stuff, it becomes increasingly difficult to support this team in any way. I'll never follow another team...but how can one possibly support any of what is/has been going on. Very sad times for this franchise that was once very proud.

Re: Snyder to Stay on a Owner

The stories you hear about Snyder are true. Dont look him in the eyes, call him Mr. Snyder if you must address him but dont address him.

Heard a story years ago and Ive said it here before

Ravens owner Steve Bischotti was hosting a party with some NFL owners and people. Dan Snyder shows up.

Steve: 'Hey Dan thanks for coming"
Mr. Snyder: 'Call me Mr. Snyder"
Steve: "GTFO here"

I dont know the exact words used but ive heard enough Snyder stories to believe this one

I heard this story from a guy who worked for the Ravens at the time. He was close friends with some high up Ravens executives, one of whom he said witnessed the event and told him about it. He didn't mention anything about Steve Bisschotti's response, or even if he responded. I always felt that the "Call me Mr. Snyder" part might be true.

Ha! That's a good one.

I'm not a violent man by nature, but I would definitely like to dress his ass down in public some day.

Snyder to Stay on a Owner

Gonna say that most players do not like Snyder. They say or said what they have to because he is the boss. Maybe thinking their is a job for them post playing career or something. Inside I am sure they think he is a pos. Gibbs is a very religious person. I doubt he has
ever said a bad word about anyone. Besides maybe Satan.
Let’s never say anything complimentary in any form about him again. Thank you. Lol

Re: Snyder to Stay on a Owner

Sheehan had a long time very high level lawyer on his pod to talk about all this mess, what we can deduce from it, and where it's likely heading.

Must listen IMHO.

He says he was at zero percent chance Snyder is forced out a couple of days ago, but now with all of it surfacing again, and Goodell saying the reason the report can not be revealed is to protect the anonymity of the victims, which is false and will be easily countered, he'd put it at 20%.

An also interesting point is that if it became clear that the emails leaked indeed came from Snyder's camp, it could be something that the other owners look at and think "that's a redline, if you're stupid enough to leak things that will come back to hurt us all, just to get back at somebody you hate, you're forcing yourself out of the owners club". Like the toxic culture is one thing, and it can not be the only franchise where similar things happened, but hurting one of the club, potentially shooting yourself in the foot, harm the owners and league's interest, that could be enough for them to say "he doesn't belong".

Re: Snyder to Stay on a Owner

Another side note, this 10M$ fine that we all considered a slap on the wrist... is not even a slap on the wrist ! It's just an obligation to donate 10M to some organisations helping the cause of women... So obviously it's tax deductible... but more than that, the team is probably donating more than that to charity every year, so the only difference is this year part of it has to go to a specific cause. It is not even a fine.
