32 cents. That is my offer. One penny for each season that has passed without a Super Bowl.

Sportster, Breed and skinsdad, is this the beginning of the end?

You all went through the Cooke sell, is this similar to the opening steps then?
I can't call it homey except to say from what I recall. This is nothing the JKC days. I hope its the end. It seems he still has an out. If he can get a new stadium built than all, or at least enough would be forgiven by the other owners. Cuz as usual, when the rubber hits the road. It's all about the dollar dollar bills y'all.


According to ESPN, many owners are more bothered by the business issues Snyder has had than the toxic workplace environment allegations. Washington is estimated to be worth around $5 billion, which makes it one of the most valuable franchises in sports. However, the Commanders have had revenue issues. One veteran owner says Snyder has been “costing his fellow owners significant money.”

“Some owners aren’t liked in their cities because their team is losing,” the owner told ESPN. “That goes with the territory. Snyder isn’t liked because of what he has done to that franchise, with all its history. The stadium is falling apart. The team is under-performing. He can’t get a new stadium. There’s no way out. … He may have passed the point of no return.”

That team owner was asked if him and his fellow owners would "forgive" Snyder and Washington’s financial woes if Snyder found a way to build a new stadium. The owner quickly replied “yes” and said Snyder is well aware of that.

The fact that the feds are now coming after Snyder only helps our cause. My guess is that this is what is driving Snyder to sell now instead of the Mary Jo White report.

More good news.

If Dan/Bank of America have already received 4 calls in 24 hours, this is a great thing and makes me think a deal will get done sooner than later.

Any clue to who the 4 are Skinsdad?

I am guessing runner-ups from the Broncos sell will throw their names in the hat. Do we think Ted Leonisis will get involved?

Does anyone have specific ties to DC that would do it?

Have a feeling November 2, 2022 will be a "where were you moment."

Skinsdad, can we start a new thread like your "Offseason" and "training camp" thread each year? We can use that thread for rumors, tweets, and all things "selling" related?

Your call...just a suggestion as there is going to be a flood of rumors and stories in the next several weeks.

my options are start new thread and have a sticky or make this the thread and use a sticky on it . people are engaged in a conversation here on the subject and i dont want to interfere with it

typically i use the off season thread for off season transactions and such but this could be one

i cant combine threads anymore so that was my go to solution

Rumor is that John Henry and the Fenway Group are interested. The Commanders will be part of the Red Sox, Pittsburgh Penguins and Manchester United.

What do you guys think of LeBron being a part of the Washington ownership.

Two vinyl siding companies and two offering car warranty extensions.
