After almost a week of cryptic teasing on social media by Washington D.C. area reporters, the Washington Post’s “bombshell” story on Daniel Snyder’s franchise has dropped.

“Exclusive: Fifteen women who worked for Redskins allege sexual harassment by former scouts and members of owner Daniel Snyder’s inner circle,” the Washington Post tweeted out at 5:30 p.m. E.T. on Thursday night.

After almost a week of cryptic teasing on social media by Washington D.C. area reporters, the Washington Post’s “bombshell” story on Daniel Snyder’s franchise has dropped.

“Exclusive: Fifteen women who worked for Redskins allege sexual harassment by former scouts and members of owner Daniel Snyder’s inner circle,” the Washington Post tweeted out at 5:30 p.m. E.T. on Thursday night.

In total, 15 former Redskins employees have alleged sexual harassment during their time with the NFC East franchise.

One woman, Emily Applegate, spoke on the record, while the other 14 women requested anonymity “citing a fear of litigation.”

The 15 women allege sexual harassment by members of Snyder’s inner circle. The Washington Redskins owner reportedly declined to comment to The Post.

“Team owner Daniel Snyder declined several requests for an interview. Over the past week, as The Post presented detailed allegations and findings to the club, three team employees accused of improper behavior abruptly departed, including Larry Michael, the club’s longtime radio voice, and Alex Santos, the team’s director of pro personnel,” the Washington Post reports.

Isn’t “Amazon” offensive to large native South American women? Seems like an issue to me.

Hey, if Snyder can milk Amazon for the type of purchase that Donald Sterling was able to with the Clippers and Ballmer, more power to him. Good chance the NFL franchise values may tank, although I wouldn’t put it past conservatives to return to the sport and maybe sooner than they did after the Kaepernick debacle (in general - I know, I know, Freepers won’t return :eye roll:).

I’ll bet the “Washington Shaved Beavers” isn’t spoken for.

These days of Sovietization, there is no possible interaction that any male can have with a female that does not qualify as sexual harassment or racism...

Need a massive payday? Accuse someone or something rich of sexual harassment or racism...

Stinking Fake News Alert!

a mixture of lies, gold-digging, and media hype.

So the Washington Lobbyists (or whatever they finally decide) should think twice or thrice about hiring females. The smarmy upwardly mobile types who set up a man to be captured on video in the hall asking at his door why she wants to see him at his hotel room. Then she fills in the rest with total lies and he is blackmailed to keep his reputation intact.

A Naked City episode had Sandy Denny as a disturbed woman who made up a daily mythical journal of trysts, followed the football player target around the country with receipts to prove it, at his hotel with another room for herself (not ever with him at any time) and then fantasizing he was in love with her. Ruined his happy marriage and his life. Thankfully detectives got her to talk weirdly and then admit her journal entries were all lies but they "made it all seem realer to me."

Or just a few million dollars each in phony MeToo harrassment suits ("When I pulled my skirt up to straighten it I saw his eyes dwelling on my legs. It wasn't the first time.")

To read all the insiders on Twitter the allegations were a LOT more serious than what this Post story says. So either there IS much worse but lawyers got involved so the dirt is covered up OR, this is all there is and while unpleasant and tacky and classless, it’s not A BOMBSHELL.

That explains it cause they sure weren’t playing football the last few seasons.

The big money for a name change is on "Redtails".

Is that because they spanked a lot of these women's booties?

This couldn’t happen to a more deserving bunch. Maybe if it goes to a jury there will be a few Native Americans who will be impressed with the owner’s willingness to erase their memory. Ha ha ha
