And yet you took the time to write that.

Normally when I don't care I don't feel the need to say it.

Different strokes I guess.

Does anyone remember this?

This article was first published May 2, 2018.

When the Washington Redskins took their cheerleading squad to Costa Rica in 2013 for a calendar photo shoot, the first cause for concern among the cheerleaders came when Redskins officials collected their passports upon arrival at the resort, depriving them of their official identification.

For the photo shoot, at the adults-only Occidental Grand Papagayo resort on Culebra Bay, some of the cheerleaders said they were required to be topless, though the photographs used for the calendar would not show nudity. Others wore nothing but body paint. Given the resort’s secluded setting, such revealing poses would not have been a concern for the women — except that the Redskins had invited spectators.

A contingent of sponsors and FedExField suite holders — all men — were granted up-close access to the photo shoots.

One evening, at the end of a 14-hour day that included posing and dance practices, the squad’s director told nine of the 36 cheerleaders that their work was not done. They had a special assignment for the night. Some of the male sponsors had picked them to be personal escorts at a nightclub.

I haven’t been here since the season ended and as the forums resident female, I hope they kick Snyder’s ass out.

A worthy return post (not that you need the book report from me). I completely agree.

I'm guessing that some of these employees are the Cheerleaders that we heard about a few years back. Is there anything really new in this?

I have been in the military for over 30 years and with a civilian company (airline) for over 25. The fact that this was acceptable behavior since the 1990’s is just freakin unbelievable. Pinching butts and cat calling- I thought that crap went out with the Rat Pack in the early ‘60’s. The only way to end it is to clean house - hold a hearing for any person involved, and if they did it, or condoned it fire their ass immediately. Snyder should RESIGN, but knowing him, he’ll just move his portable rock with him and settle somewhere else. I mean an organization with over 200 people and NO HR DEPARTMENT?? WTF? That just INVITES bad behavior. ESPECIALLY when you have young, pretty, UNPAID, cheerleaders and JR cheerleaders who you have representing the team ALL OVER THE WORLD. When I was commanding a base in AFGHANISTAN in 2002-3, the Redskins JR Cheerleaders (if they have a real name please correct me) came through. Really nice young women representing the team. The thought that they had NO HR protection is just freakin’ terrible. They have NO ONE to go to if this sort of sexist shitte goes on.

In the military or airline, if this sort of crap goes on, they do an investigation and if you’re guilty, your career is over. Period. Zero tolerance.

Snyder may pretend that l HE LOVES the franchise and legacy but under his so-called “leadership” this sexist rot was allowed to exist. He has brought this team as low as it can go! Does he know what this means to his fans, who by association are rooting for this shitte?

At the very least, Snyder needs to have a press conference and APOLOGIZE TO THE FANS. BEG FORGIVENESS. Firing a couple guys is NOT ENOUGH!

Anyone who thinks that this immature crap is ok, hasn’t worked in corporate America in the last 20 years. Yes, cases do happen. But they are dealt with swiftly and the guilty party is fired.

Sexual predators pick on the youngest, weakest and most troubled people of a certain group. What starts as inappropriate comments, turns into pinching, grabbing, unasked for hugs, etc. to worse. I believe the article has more aggregious behavior, but since they knew Snyder would sue them, they pulled back to stories that could BE PROVEN IN THE COURTROOM.

Snyder has just brought this franchise to a new low. He IS UNDOUBTEDLY THE WORST OWNER IN THE NFL. I now see why the co-owners tried to sell their shares, with NO-TAKERS. Snyder has made a mockery of this team with his Mis-management and by the horrible way he treats his lower employees. He’ll fly the company jet to help a player get a surgery, while leaving vulnerable women in his staff out to dry.

This shows what a low-life scum Snyder is. Many women have to go to the Wash Post, with a viable story before Snyder does anything. Same with the name, he only moved when the big money threatened to pull out. Snyder is a case study in how to ruin an organization through buffoonery and mismanagement.

It also shows how sick Hollywood is ... this ain’t nothing close to Hollywood’ and Epstein island ... let’s call ALL of them out ..

Hollywood absolutely had a role in this. Doesn't fan Snyder own a movie company? I think Chrissy teagans silence on this speaks volumes.

Now the NFL says it supports the so-called "independent" investigation by a law firm that Snyder hired. I do not trust such an investigation. The NFL Office is either stupid to accept this as a positive first step or they fear that similar situations in other franchises might come to light in a truly independent investigation and they're helping Snyder to sweep it under the rug.

Any investigation initiated and paid for by Snyder should be unacceptable to the NFL, the State of Virginia, and the Federal Government.

There is something else that bothers me .. this stuff was supposed to be happening as far back as 2006 .. that means Gibbs(2cnd tenure) and Shanny were at the helm as well as Zorn, Gruden .. who I always thought was a sleaze.. I have a hard time believing Gibbs , Zorn or shanny would have known this ..
