Redskins coaches support owners in lockout

Taking a stand against the brief implies you're siding with the owners. Come on man stop with the semantics.

No it doesn't. It just means you aren't siding with the players either. That brief was filed to support the players. Had the coaches did that, they would be publicly siding with the players, which is also a stupid move.

This isn't semantics. Coaches should be remaining neutral in all this. (publicly at least) They shouldn't be apart of any brief supporting the players, and they shouldn't be signing letters supporting ownership. Not sure how you see them making a stand against the brief implies they are siding with owners. You'd have to stand against the brief if you wanted to remain neutral. That doesn't mean you need to sign a letter supporting the owners either.

The Skins filed their response before fully understanding what the intent of the brief was. The NFLCA obviously didn't properly communicate that intent, nor did they have the full support from the coaches regarding the filing of the brief to begin with.

Regardless, the NFLCA F'd this up from the start. And in the end this issue is minuscule compared to the big picture.

That much is certain.

Clearly Dan Snyder has bullied every other coach in the league as well.

Why the sympathetic defense of Snyder? He has acquired a well-earned reputation as a bully. Once a man gains a reputation as a bully, it is to be expected that he might be accused of doing something that he didn't do. Tough luck for him. If he had a reputation for treating his employees respectfully then he wouldn't have to worry about such things.

Because much of his reputation is actually built on BS accusations such as the one in this thread

Pretty sure that reputation is earned, and not based on BS accusations either. See his lawsuit against the Washington City Paper as pure evidence of bullying. Also, he's bullied his coaches, players, and fans so that reputation is legit.


That said, I don't agree with the claim or notion that it's Snyder behind making the coaches sign the letter backing the owners. However, I do think they did it out of fear.

See this is what a good mod does. A simple short statement that guarantees the thread will double in size as people start pulling long winded diatribes against DS.

Now that is earning your Cayman Island account!

I disagree, but I'm not going to get into it again. It's a tired subject, in my opinion

For every legit reason to hate on the guy, there's probably twice as much BS out there. I've got no problem with focusing on the legit stuff, but the BS is just that.
