I wouldn't be surprised if Bruce is the main source for this.

Also the minority owners wanting out is very telling. The 3 of them have basically turned their backs on Dan. They obviously know what's going on.

This could turn out like Jerry Richardson's scandal with the Carolina Panthers that forces Snyder out. Yet another item that came to the Redskins from the Panthers LOL.

It sounds really bad. Really Damning. The other owners wanting out was the biggest sign. They know what is coming. Dan might be on his way out, guys.

So let's say the league forces Snyder to sell like the Clippers owner who did FAR less.

Do we think it's possible for the minority owners, if not involved in the scandal (they likely are though), could just buy Snyder's share?

While I do want new ownership, I very nervous about Bezos taking over. He's built Amazon into a giant, but also has had questionable business practices himself at time...and might know less about football then Daniel Snyder. Snyder with all of his horrible decision making, at least was a fan of the Redskins going in.

Yes i think it's possible, remember there was that story that initially the minority owners went to Dan and asked him to sell his ownership in the team, and he declined, so they were on board with buying the rest of the team had Dan been willing to sell.

Just about every rich person has questionable business practices. I'm sick of Snyder's shit show, I just want a new owner and I hope the NFL forces Snyder out.

Given our current climate, I can see NFL sponsors pressuring the NFL to get rid of Snyder.

Please, no. In all due respect to the legendary Joe Gibbs, he is 80 years old himself, and I am sure he has no interest in taking up the full-time responsibilities that being an owner would entail.

Gibbs loves his family and being as close to them as possible. I don't think he would be willing to have so much time spent away from them, and traveling all over the country at his age.

[MTK]

Gibbs would be part of an ownership group if it did happen, he doesn't have the $$ to buy the majority share.

[Ruhskins]

Bezos will likely buy the team, since everyone knows he wants in on the NFL, and the NFL wants to have the connection for potential streaming deal with Amazon.

Also, I don't get people getting all worked up because Bezos is a liberal. Look at the late Paul Allen, he was a liberal and that didn't affect his management of the Seahawks.

As I said, I'm sick of Snyder's shitshow, and I just want new ownership.

I think most people are more worried that Bezos could be a worse owner than Dan, if that is even possible. I don't think being Liberal has anything to do with it.

[skinsfaninok]

Some are worried Bezos would move the team but that's not happening

[mooby]

This team man.

I think it does, people just don't want to say it, and some imply it. But whatever

You are right though, we don't know what we'll get from Bezos or any new owner. I would hope that a new owner would learn from Snyder's mistakes, and as I said, I'm so sick of Snyder that I just want someone new.
