Sigh.

Remember, tax laws can change overnight...
1. I am not a tax attorney or CPA but by my understanding of estate taxes, there will be ZERO estate tax due if Snyder dies first and leaves the team - - and anything else - - to his spouse. There is no limit on what someone can leave to a spouse tax-free. When the spouse dies, however, that is a different story...
2. The uprising in Egypt was successful because the Egyptian Army backed the protesters and not the incumbent government. That is not likely to happen even if there were a massive protest against incumbent Redskins' ownership.
3. Could Snyder be tricked into selling the team? Interesting concept here but it would take someone who is pretty stupid and gullible to fall for a con that would end up that way. I may not have the world's highest opinion of Danny Boy as a person to guide an NFL franchise, but I cannot bring myself to think he is that stupid or gullible.
4. Inception will be science fiction for quite a while...
