The thing that gets me is that, after 10 years of mediocrity, you would think that Snyder would look at how things are being done and say... hmmmmm how are franchises that are consistently successful run? What are the models that acheive success? Generally, what is the level of owner involvement for successful teams?

Perhaps he has done this, I just don't know. I don't think he has. I remember an article where he was asked if he thinks the Ravens might be a good model (back around the time they were winning a SB and constantly restocking their team with young talent) and his response being something along the lines of "What could I possibly learn from them??

I really am not on the trash Dan bandwagon - I don't want the team sold (the devil you don't know is worse than the one you do).

I just want the dumb little jerk to wake up, swallow his pride, do some serious self examination and really look around to see how winners are built.
