The bottom line with Dan Snyder is the dollar. As with other owners. But the difference with Dan Snyder has been itemized by the article in the law suit. I just don't think that Mr. Snyder gives a hill of beans about his loyalties to the Washington Redskins. It's an investment first and foremost and not this BS about his life long love for the Redskins.

Little boy in a candy shop is not a good analogy of Dan's reckless ownership of this franchise. The maverick who is not a maverick in terms of showing a positive direction of owning a franchise that had some moxie during the time when Dan bought it.

Let's hope Mike Shanahan and Bruce Allen can restore it to respectability again without Dan Snyder's interference.

So, hate is the wrong word. Disrespect is the right word in describing my present feelings towards Mr. Snyder.
Without debating whether DS "wants to win" or "cares about the Redskins", I would just say that based on my observation & the reactions he's spurred from some around him, I don't see the Danny as being a good leader. I won't question all his intentions, but it just doesn't seem he has the ability to truly drive others toward success, rather he commands respect, loyalty & complicity to his demands at the expense of progress toward the greater goal.

The Little Danny wants this guy fired plain and simple. He's got no shot to win that lawsuit. I personally thought the article was hilarious. I don't care for Dan Snyder, and I'm glad he's getting roasted for this.

I know Snyder has done some good things as far as charitable donations (not like it affects him considering how much money he has), and I know he flew everyone to Sean's funeral, etc etc. But his douchebaggery FAR outweighs any good he's done. I personally don't really think that's even up for debate.
Dan Snyder has a right to protect his reputation against defamatory remarks and depictions; however, he faces an uphill battle in this particular case, especially since he is easily labeled as a public figure. He is seeking $1 million+ in addition to punitive damages. Snyder must prove that those “lies, half-truths, innuendo and anti-Semitic imagery to smear, malign, defame and slander” actually damaged his reputation and he must prove with convincing clarity that WCP published the article with knowledge or in reckless disregard of its falsity and its defamatory character. In order for Snyder to have any chance on this one, he must prove that WCP had intent for actual malice.

Yes, ten years after the sale. If someone wanted to supplant Snyder and his ownership that is an avenue to a conclusion. Someone can always challenge a sale.

I've come to the point where I question his sincerity with wanting to win. Sometimes I get the feeling he wants just the opposite. Look at every decision he and Vinny made.

This man has burned many bridges in his past because he is a devoured fan? I can't buy that anymore. You are right, Dan Snyder is not a leader. He is a destroyer of what works by displacing it with his circus brand on it.

Re: Snyder Camp Upset!!

I am in Houston.
Just saw on the local news that big sheets of snow and ice slid off the roof of Cowboys stadium today, where super bowl will be on Sunday, and six people were hurt. One person is in the hospital in critical condition.

Amazing video of ice falling off Super Bowl stadium - Shutdown Corner - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

We do have pros in place but they're got off to a rough start. Gotta give them time but so far I'm not really impressed with the Shanahans or Bruce Allen.

Re: Snyder Camp Upset!!

Also glad to hear Snyder on the radio today to tell his side of it. Although I don't agree with his stance and it should be water off his back, at least he's not hiding and he's talking, so good for him. And good to hear him and Lavar kind of squash their fued.
