Bunch of media drama hawks driving the narrative.

My main problems with the guy would be football related. Like why is this guy the GM? Who is really making roster decisions? Draft decisions?

You don't need to go outside the football aspect of things to call him one of the worst ever.

But if you do, it just adds to the stench.

I'd argue Dan Snyder has done more damage to his franchise's brand than any single person has done to any team in US sports history. He bought a franchise that was maybe a notch down from the Yankees/Canadiens/Celtics tier in terms of prestige. What he leaves behind ...

feel like that might be a bit of an exaggeration given he's not even the most shameful owner in Washington's history.

George Marshall fought vehemently against integration and said a Black player will only be on the Redskins over his dead body. it's the reason so much of the DC/Virginia market are Cowboys fans to this day, as a protest passed down from a generation 50 years ago.

the team has literally erased his name from their records and removed all mention of him from their stadium and offices, i don't think Snyder is going to get that treatment.

My favorite Snyder story was when Jay Gruden talked about their draft process 😄

When it came our time to pick, we’d always talk about the picks, where we’d like to go, what happens if the player is gone, and did all our scenarios. And then Dan Snyder would come in and make the pick.

Snyder was terrible and honestly the NFL should be embarrassed they didn't publicly force him out like they did to JR.

JR just responded to the situation differently.  He could have acted like Snyder but he agreed to sell the team instead.  They can't really force anyone out if that person is willing to be a pariah.

    • After last season, it was the same question. And the answer most people came to was "If he doesn't make the playoffs, he's gone." He made the playoffs. No matter how it was done, we made it to the playoffs. He's safe. He's going to have a chance to keep working this out, even if next season isn't a playoff one.  I think we'll do better next year than we did this season. There's something being built here.
    • The NBA is a very fickle league. Kon is one of the hottest rookies in years and beyond just his play on the court he is a very steady competitor and that translates to the rest of the team. That has been a glaring absence with the culture of this franchise through the bulk of the LaMelo Ball years that's just being completely blunt and realistic. The enigma of LaMelo Ball is he is entering year 6 and still either red hot or ice cold. We need him to find that sweet spot. Logic dictates the Hornets will want to see this core again next year. But the clock is beyond ticking at this point. It's put up or shut up. Especially considering what the Thunder managed to do recently. I'm hopeful they can keep these wins rolling in and get some much needed playoff experience under their belts which will help substantially.
    • I think as long as the Panthers are competitive with Canales they should keep him. Pepper needs to repair his/the teams image as a place prized free agents aren't hesitant to consider. Just dont do any crazy poo for a few years.
