If these allegations pan out, it's probably tax evasion too. If the IRS can nail Al Capone, they can get Snyder too. Good luck, I hope he fucking gets indicted.

In hearing all the details this probably won't hold up. This is one guy, the guy in charge of ticket sales, who was fired as payback for his cooperation in the sexual harassment investigation. I doubt the guy in charge of tickets had this insight, it was refuted by others who would be more in the know.

I dunno, Jerry the GM has picked pretty good players, Jerry the owner just picks shitty coaches.
If you follow the Cowboys, you know Jerry has put a lot of trust in Will McClay in who's picked and or signed in FA.

It was McClay who convinced Jerry to move on from Dez. If it were simply Jerry's decision Dez wasn't going anywhere. I see Jerry as one who falls in love with his guys and he'll bend over backwards to take care of them.

Again I want Jerrys money and desire to win to stay, but I want Jerry to end his day to day decisions on the operations of the team.

Do you know what the difference is between tax evasion and tax avoidance?

My thoughts too, reading into it. Hard to say but I would think an employee who isn't in Snyder's inner circle wouldn't have any first hand knowledge of something this big. Of course, it gives the feds reason to keep digging and if they find something, shit will hit the fan for Danny boy. He could have a new home in club fed and you fans could be rid of him for good.

But if it never happened then none of this matters. I'm just skeptical, we've all gotten excited before, now THIS will finally be the final straw. Yet Goodell and the NFL continue to protect him.

Quite correct.
Goodell will watch the windmill as long as he can and see which way the wind blows.
Preferred action is to sweep it under the carpet.
Public opinion is not going to crucify him for cheating the IRS, who has the same ethical standards as the NFL.
The IRS is protecting you?

They may dig up nothing, but if they do I agree the IRS won't care about the shield.

If there were anything to it. The nfl would’ve had to known about it. Hell, they just loaned him money to buy the whole team. Those liberals are going after him almost as bad as they did trump, and the problem is this’ll just make Snyder dig in deeper.
Y’all facepalm all you want. This is just another witch hunt. The difference is no one gives a shit about Snyder so have at it, but Congress has way more important shit to deal with in this country. Let me know when all this made up, and lied about shit comes to fruition

Are Snyder and Ross more important tha Goodell falling on a whole drawer full of knives?

Goodell needs to ask himself how much money is enough!

The U.S. House Committee on Oversight and Reform alleges the Commanders withheld as much as $5 million in refundable deposits from season ticket holders.​

In a letter to the Federal Trade Commission, the house committee -- which has investigated the Commanders' culture of sexual harassment --- said the franchise may have cheated season ticket holders and kept money intended to be shared with the NFL's other 31 teams. “Given the Federal Trade Commission’s (FTC) authority to investigate unfair or deceptive business practices, we are providing the information and documents uncovered by the Committee for your review, to determine if the Commanders violated any provision of law enforced by FTC and whether further action is warranted,” the committee’s letter said. “We request that you take any other action you deem necessary to ensure that all funds are returned to their rightful owners and that those responsible are held accountable for their conduct.” As lawmakers' investigation continues to turn up damning evidence of financial malfeasance, pressure will build among NFL owners to remove Daniel Snyder as Washington's owner. Allegations of withholding money from season ticket holders might be the death knell for Washington fans' support of the once-proud franchise.

If you really think all of this is made up and a witch hunt then it's obvious that you don't know anything about Daniel Snyder and therefore you should remove yourself from the discussion.

This is shaping up to be a fun blanket party.

the silent assassin doing what he does best behind the comforts of his keyboard.

99.9% haven't the nerve to say the shit they post to someone's face.

NOW that's the hoop!
