I’m not sure I know or care about the issues and claims about Snyder. True, false or somewhere in between, I couldn’t care less. What I find interesting is the phenomenon of this sort of public campaign to identify someone as outside of the tent, not fit to be among the rest of us decent folk. It was done with the former owner of the Clippers in the NBA - Donald Sterling, and it worked well in his favor. I recall the valuation on the Clippers at approx. $1.2B before the brouhaha started, and in the end the team sold for about $1B more to Steve Ballmer. The lesson there is - don’t just create a problem for the league, really stink the place up, and the urgency of your dispatch leads to a premium $$$ for your estate.

“Commanders” sounds gay. That’s really the best they could come up with? Redskins sounds fierce, tough, noble and just plain American.
