Re: Yahoo says Snyder 3rd best NFL owner

Before we slurp the Danny too much, consider the criteria of the guy's rankings:

"To repeat the previously stated criteria: I’m partial toward owners who aggressively generate revenue, pour profits back into the product, view things from a wide, league-oriented perspective and refrain from complaining too loudly in public. Most of all, I try to answer one question: If you root for this team, is this the person (or people) you want in charge?
"

So sure, Snyder fits this man's prerequisite for a good owner: He makes tons of money, puts it back into the team, and doesn't whine in public...

I suppose he's league oriented from a financial standpoint based on the sponsorship dollars and overall revenue generating abilities. I'm not too well versed on his various stances on other league related issues, so I can't really speak to that.

As far as me as fan wanting Mr. Snyder to be my team's owner... Well the jury is still out, although there's no question he's learned a lot in the last decade and is improving with age. I know plenty of Washingtonians who despise the man. I do think one day he has the potential to be one of the league's finest owners, but IMO he has quite a bit of work to do.

(He does get props for the way he handled Sean's passing, as well as his generosity and compassion for Todd Collins and Robert Royal, not to mention all money he's raised/donated towards cancer research).
