[quote=irish;1314711]I'm not so sure. On some level I expect the owners of Dallas, Phila, and NYG don't mind having one of their division rivals essentially permanently handicapped by bad ownership.

They don't care about winning as much as they care about making money. Seeing empty seats in one of the largest media markets in the country will definitely put you on the shit list of other owners.

Then bring bad press that draws congressional attention, to the point where congressional committees start taking testimony from team employees, they don't like that scrutiny and the risk it represents to all of their businesses.

If I'm an owner who operates on the up and up and doesn't have skeletons of my own in the closet, I'd want Snyder gone immediately. If I'm an owner with skeletons, I might be more inclined to rally round the family with a pocket full of shells.

The fact you haven't seen Snyder lambasted yet by other owners I think points to just how many have skeletons of their own.

Exactly. They know that people in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Re: Snyder (the absolute worst owner in all of sports) to stay on a owner
 

The stuff with Snyder never really bothered me once the games started. But now it is just different. I just wish they'd get rid of him- or he moves the team to another city and we start over.

If the team ever started winning I just don't want him to ever hold any kind of trophy. Ever.

It would pain me to see such a shitbag hoisting the Lombardi. Sell the team Dan.

If we won a super bowl, Danny Boy would still not be respected by anyone. He has the mark of the beast.

Give us that damn Lombardi, we have 364 other days a year to hate that shithead.

Never heard that before. ;)

Reminds me of this guy in my dorm at college. Complete screw up. Barely cracked a book. Friend of mine commented, [I]"What do I care? His behavior can only help my GPA and class rank."[/I]

I think that's a really good point, and we may be getting closer to a point where even the owners who do have skeletons in their closet switch from "Let's not go after him because I don't want to be next" to "let's get rid of him before all that attention gets me caught too" ...

Then in their second breath they said the money was not funds to be shared with the NFL. iT was money from a concert and a ND games at FedEx.

As I understand it they took income from NFL games and entered them in the books as income from the concerts and ND games so they would not have to share it with the NFL.
