Dan Snyder Hires Bank Of America To Potentially Sell Washington Commanders

[SunnySide]

Naming of Goddell and NFL as defendants subject to discovery is great. Closer that fire gets to their doorstep, the better.

I could see this being dismissed before it gets off the ground .. lack of jurisdiction, lack of standing, lack of articuable claim, failure to state claim upon which relief could be afforded ...

It's starting to get where there is no other recourse but to sell. Either through force or just finally accepting you're a shithead and no one likes you. I don't know how that man sleeps at night.

As much as Rivera frustrates the hell out of me sometimes, I still think he should get 1 more year to see how he can do with the fog of Snyder's shit out of the air and not having any GM roles.

Yeah it is just that he had a majority of losing seasons in Carolina and without Superman he probably would have been fired well before he was. Yes there is something to be said for blocking things out, but his time management, personnel decisions, and inability to ever be prepared for the start of a game really have nothing to do with dick head. Ill take a new HC if someone appealing comes along.

I wouldn't lose sleep if he was replaced. But I'd be OK with him getting 1 more year. Hopefully the new-car smell can wear off on the coaches.

I want to see Dan go to jail. I want to see him on 60 Days In.

If that happens then I will be absolutely sure there is a God, and it is a kind and giving God to boot.

Can someone please explain how the AG of DC can sue Dan Snyder , the Team plays in Maryland and practice in VA?

If you to the poster boards they had displayed; it’s because DS is using DC the letters and the flag when marketing the team

Dan Snyder's voice (lies to misinform potential customers for financial gain) reverberated through the air of Washington DC and were heard by ears of DC residents.

^^ Im being facetious but also ... that is my honest understanding from the announcement

What stops someone from California or the prime minister of Malaysia for suing .. if they heard his voice on tv in California or in Malaysia?

Goddell and the NFL being parties is the most interesting part of it.

Really curious about a consumer protection theory of the case.

I haven't seen any reports with any specifics in the complaint, other than a general statement about "lies."

Hopefully, more detailed reporting will come out in the next few days.

Id be willing to bet the AG has crossed his t’s and dotted his i’s prior to today’s announcement. At the end of the day all I want is Snyder to be gone. Two months ago id have said there is a 0 percent chance of that happening in my lifetime. Now id say it’s a 90 percent chance.

Kind of disappointed. Doesn’t sound like much of substance by Racine

I ask because e a few years ago someone sued the NFL and the Jets and Giants and said the same thing . They were advertising that they were NY teams and the suite said they weren't , it was thrown out. NY NJ Metropolitan area teams could use the moniker.

Death by a thousand cuts works for me. Anything that needs to happen to make Snyder gone, I'm all for.

It's depressing he will get absolutely, disgustingly rich off it. But he will still be miserable. I don't think people like him are every truly happy.

Keep in mind the AG retires in January. The new AG could drop all charges.
Let me put on my tinfoil hat:
Goodell planned this hit.
He is promising DC will get a new stadium if Snyder sells to Bezos.
If Snyder does sell, the new AG will not pursue charges against dan. If not, it’s going to cost Snyder a lot of money.

I’m curious to know if Dan has a prenup. Tonya is probably sizing up the sale.
