Dan Snyder is the worst owner in the NFL
*************
He’s number #1 at something. Total loser he is.

I bet Rush Limbaugh could build a winner if he owned the team, but I digress.

You guys have also had to endure Peter Angelos’ stewardship of the Orioles.
A two-fer.

He’ll be working in Las Vegas by this time next year, I predict.

Have a few friends in that area. Though I rooted for the Orioles as a boy growing up in Eastern N.C. and still have a soft spot for them in my heart, I despise the whole area and really don't like or care for the rest of their sports teams. But... As I was watching the Nationals begin their annual nose dive last night, I found myself pulling for them if for no other reason than to put off my friends' inevitable heartache for a week or two.
And yes, Dan Snyder needs to suck it up and sell.

“I remember when the Skins had a 30 year wait for season tickets....”
Can they even give them away at this point?
Jack Kent Cook loved that team and put together a front office that was good at publicity and a coaching staff that could win.
Prior to living in Richmond, Va in the late 80’s I had no animosity towards the skins. Just didn’t care about them.
Two years of hearing THAT DAMNED SONG (Hail To The Skins) every year and I grew to HATE them.
Still want to throw up when I think about them and that song.

Duh! Like the Skins were supposed to beat the Patriots?!?!?

Snyder fails to realize that he can’t buy a super bowl.
He collects players like a little kid collects toy action figures. The Redskins need a coach who’s going to walk into Snyder’s office and tell him, hey, you want a winning team? Keep your upper office away from the locker room. You concentrate on selling merchandise, and leave the players to me. MY players, MY rules. I train ‘em, I discipline them, and you guys stick to the business side of it. Until the ‘Skins get a coach that can come to that understanding with the upstairs office,and enforce it, they’ll continue to fail.

Imagine getting called into the office at 5am just to get fired. Jay had to know it was coming. I would have just sent a text message calling out sick. Lol.
To: oldvirginian
Jack Kent Cook loved that team
Yep. He sure did! Best owner they ever had. He understood where the lines were to be drawn. So, so sad to see how far they've fallen. It's never going to get any better-not until Snyder sells them.

The Orioles imploded. No other way to say it.
They sold off everyone of any value and decimated the farm system of promising players. A disgraceful episode in team history, far worse than anything even Dan Snyder would do.
To: gimme1ibertee
Absolutely correct. What winning coach would want to come to Washington and put up with Snyder’s BS?
To: Buckeye McFrog
If he was Hue Jackson hed continue on for another three or four years.
Jackson was fired midway through his third season as head coach with the Browns. Gruden was 5 weeks into his sixth season with the Skins.
