Snyder (the absolute worst owner in all of sports) to stay on a owner

Does anyone give even a 1% chance that the NFL made that move because either Snyder is going to be forced to sell or has agreed he will step down and sell, and therefore he being the sole owner makes the process easier and not as messy with even more litigation for the sale of the team. Something just doesn't quite add up in my opinion...a few weeks ago there was supposedly a "leak" that the investigation was going to recommend that Snyder be pushed out...then NFL said that was not so. And now they break their own rules for the guy they are investigating and give him MORE power?? Maybe I'm just trying to stay optimistic but that all just seems fishy to me.

The league isn't going to force him out, that ship has sailed. They just approved his debt waiver so he could buy out the minority partners, they're not going to turn around now and force him to sell. We're stuck with him until he decides to sell.

[Monkeydad]

Yeah, him buying out the ownership share solidifies that he's owning the team until HE decides to sell, which won't be anytime soon.

This is also a new page...we'll see how it works out. Maybe we'll find out that some of the decisions we've disagreed with were not all Dan, but the other half of ownership. I'm most likely wrong, but things are going to be different with this change in power.

The last year with Coach Rivera have given us optimism that Dan can actually let football people make football decisions. Let's hope it stays this way. Maybe Dan's had an awakening, or maybe the possibility of losing the team has scared him straight. Either way, the changes we've seen to this franchise (except losing its history and identity) in the last 18 months or so have been a complete 180.

Snyder has owned the team since 1999, no reason now to believe that he will ever change for the better. Sooner or later I expect him to stick his nose into Ron's business and fuck this shit up. Just hope to enjoy the ride a bit before he messes it up again.

Sad but true.

We have had great coaches before under Snyder..Gibbs, shanny, Marty S, yep he meddled with them and the worse thing Snyder does (football related )is get involved in the player picks ( The Latest being Haskins) .. I’m not sure he can help himself there but with the staff Ron has put together it will be very hard for Danny boy to strongarm them ...

One could argue that all the coaches you mention are much more successful coaches than RR yet DS still meddled with them. DS will meddle with RR, he cant help himself.

It's really hard to think otherwise.

But maybe, just maybe, most if not all of his transgressions have been due to surrounding himself with boneheads like Cerrato and BA. I don't see the same character traits or overall lack of talent & football intelligence in the gentlemen in the building today.

I'll always have a sliver of hope, but the dark cloud of Dan Snyder always looms overhead

This is certainly GREAT news for the other three teams in the NFC East, who have benefited from Snyder’s horrific winning record as owner. Who wouldn’t want to oppose a team in this division with such a Buffon and the NFL’s worst owner at the helm.? As soon as Rivera is gone, Dan will be back to his old tricks again.

What this means in the short run:

1. We won’t have a team name. We will still remain as the laughing stock of the NFL fans who consider our inability to get a real name as another sign of dysfunction and poor management. I believe Snyder won’t pick a new name because he’d have to pay someone to get it.
Disagree. I like keepting WFT cuz it keeps the Redskins as well. Fuck som egimmick ass "new name"
2. We’ll have male and female cheerleading squad. Snyder will do anything and everything to move away from all the sexist allegations of the last year. We’ll be the only team with a mixed cheerleading squad. Again to the amusement and laughter of the rest of the NFL.
its 2021, the me too pc police generation. Disagree.
3. As long as RIVERA is winning and stays on, he will have full power to make team, management and personnel decisions. But don’t believe for a second that anything has changed with Snyder. Dan micromanaged the team to the very bottom of the NFL over 20 years and is certainly just ITCHING to put his fingers back in the pie!! He’s played nice for a year but he can’t wait to wade into the personnel decision-making again. We’re ok as long as Rivera is around. As soon as he leaves, the team will spiral downward under Dan’s piss poor decision-making. The old employee rule will be back: “Don’t look into my eyes - for I am from Mt Olympus and you are a lowly mortal!”
Ron will be fine.
Long-term: Snyder will be our owner for another couple decades. Nothing has changed. He wants to get back into making all the team decisions, regardless of whether the team wins or not.
we'll see. history say correct, i want to believe different
New Stadium? Possible but not soon. All the local politicians hate Snyder because the fans hate Snyder. That won’t change. If any other owner offered to build a new stadium WITH HIS OWN MONEY the local pols would jump at it. But Snyder is reviled in the Washington DC area and I’m not sure any politician wants to be associated with him right now. If the team wins and the fans come back, then the politicians will make a stadium deal with Snyder. But NOT right away.

The owners may forgive Snyder or may like to having him around because (in comparison) Snyder makes them look like geniuses and compassionate human beings. But I think it will take years for the fans to come back.
fuck him
Maybe if the team wins consistently in the next seasons, the fan base will return quickly. But I wonder. The team is in decrepit FedEx field until 2027. It’s a lousy stadium and Snyder’s prices are high and the service is awful. Fans may come to see Chase Young and a winning team, but It took 2 decades of gross owner mismanagement and misconduct to destroy this team’s fan base. I just don’t think the fans will forgive SNYDER so quickly just because his fellow owners did so.
again, fuck him.

Not necessarily, after all they have been delaying the release of the report, which would be the justification if they chose to force him to sell. I don't see it as necessarily them "backing him" as much as making another problem go away. If they had done this after the report was published, regardless of its recommendation, then it would look bad. It is still a very long shot that they force him to sell but I will always try to remain at least a little bit optimistic that at some point the league will grow tired of him being a distraction or even less likely he will evolve into a somewhat decent human being, because there is little to nothing else I can do about it

Wait, you don't think the league going all the way to bend its' own financial rules to allow him to buy out his minority owners at an absolute bargain price (franchise evaluated at 2.2billions while it may very well sell north of 5billions if it was sold now) is some sort of support ?
