Minority Owners of the Skins Want Out.

I wouldn't say never with Dan selling. $$ always talks. If it's true that most of his wealth is tied up in the team that means it's not liquid wealth. Cash is king. It's hard to think he's enjoying himself as owner. He's basically despised by the fans and other owners. He's a proven loser.

I posted this on the Redskins 2020 thread but I think it applies to this situation. Sheehan said over last 5 years the Skins had slowest economic growth by far of every NFL team (no real surprise). Yes still making money but like everyone else the team is an investment that has to be making the minority owners mad.

If they change the name and announce a new stadium within the next year, that's a game changer. The value will increase. No way I'd sell the team now. Get the stadium announced then sell. You can say your legacy was getting the team back to D.C.

You got that right. He seems very stubborn though. I am no shrink, but I would speculate that coming from modest means and acquiring an NFL franchise while still on the young side of life gives the man a big enough ego to think he can still right the ship.

And even before the nfl franchise, making his money off his telecom business. Hes not a dummy....just when it comes to football..
Which is unfortunate for all of us.

DS grew up as a fan of the team.
It’s more than just about money.

Quite true.

I would describe myself as "conversant" in football. I know most of what is going on and can comment on the insanity of a play. But I would fall apart if I tried to run a team on my own.

I have trouble running a fantasy team. That's about where I'm at. Haha

Where will that money for a new stadium come from, the cost would be in the 2.5 to 3 Billion range.

Dan Snyder will never sell the controlling interest in the team. If you have visions of him doing so, you are smoking some bad stuff. Does anyone know how much the minority owners want for their shares?
