being a good owner is more then just winning. mr. snyder is getting better at giving control to the people who should have it (gibbs). when snyder first became owner of the skins he was already a better owner then some of the other ones, even though he made some horrible player aquisitions. snyder was just trying to win, you can't blame him for that, he just went about it the wrong way.


he brought gibbs out of retirement and he's letting gibbs run the show, in the meantime he is bringing in any and every player/coach that gibbs wants. how is that being a turd ?

[LEFT]I agree with the article when it says that eventually Snyder will get it right. he is young and he has a long time left with the skins. There will be more mistakes and failed strategies but eventually we will win another superbowl. I would rather have an owner who is actively trying to win than one who does nothing (a la Abe Pollin and the Wizards) and pisses away talented youth. The window of opportunity of winning in the NFL is short and u need someone who is willing to jump on the opportunity when it arises, which snyder definitely tries to do.

No that is incorrect, the Skins are not #1 in all of sports/WORLD. Although they are in the top 3 somewhere.
That list just ranks the Redskins as #1 in the United States based sports (NFL, NHL,NBA) but not in the world. Real Madrid and Manchester United and most likely AC Milan are higher valued. Real and Man U's have their own TV deals.
Just with that alone they eclipse the redskins earning power and worth. Real Madrids new TV deal is worth $1.4 Billion over 6 years.

Plus Real's and Man U's merchindise is sold oll over the world, they are the two most popular teams in the WORLD. There are many coutries that have never heard of the Washington Redskins.

Regarding Snyder ranking high, that is great, but I would rather be a consistant winner and win Superbowls than rank high in this catagory. Snyder has been a #1 owner in making money and in bussiness, that is awesome! But he has not been great at what counts most, being a smart NFL owner is it realtes to winning.

Yes , Thanks to JKC....the man was smart ,80% of the Skins value is in realestate.Anyone that puts Dan Snyder ahead of the Rooney's is a fool .Take a look at the list Jerry Jones?????

You're right...the way Danny whacked Portis' shoulder, took Moss out, whacked the knees of every member of our secondary and LBs and put those weights in Brunell's pads so he couldn't run anymore...what a horrible owner. Injuring our top players doesn't warrant a #5 ranking for an owner.

Let's not forget how Snyder soaked Lloyd's gloves in vegetable oil before every game too.

Yes! Also, there's an apostrophe missing but that's not a big deal

Will now correct the title

Also, I'm not sure you can ever be "5th" best. There is the best, then there is the rest.

A good example of why I no longer subscribe to SI.
