Minority Owners of the Skins Want Out.

Obviously they are replaceable, but I am curious as to why and why now. It's almost as if they are leaving because the name will be changed.

The article talks about difficulty working with Dan, which is no surprise to us as fans after 20+ years of ownership. I think they see the name change as a perfect time to get out. This tells me that the name rebrand is going positively and they see an opportunity to a. get out of working with Dan and b. they can finally off load their shares knowing people would be willing to buy in now that the name won't be considered offensive. I imagine trying to convince a billionaire to buy into the Redskins knowing the backlash they would face is not an easy sell.

To me this is a negative spin article on what may be positive developments on the name change.
