Maybe their lesson should be to avoid another slimy piece of shit with the new owner.

The point was made a couple posts ago, but the venn diagram of slimy pieces of shit and billionaires looking to buy sports teams is probably pretty circletastic.

One of the things Snyder did was have the team pay 4.5 million dollars to put their logo (wtf logo) on snyder’s personal plane.

Tax write-off. I’m guessing stuff like that is pretty standard.

I can only imagine being a minority shareholder with Dan Snyder at the helm.

Dock them a 5th round draft pick.

The Dean Spanos school of accounting

Yeah except his co owners were not on board with their 160 million dollars that were spent on money going into his pocket.

The nfl forced the other owners to sell and that could cost them 2 billion dollars hahaha nice one Roger

I bet they wanted to sell. Snyder was bleeding the team (and them) and could have done so indefinitely. I’m guessing a large part of the reason he’s selling now is that he gets the full sale price. That’s why being a minority investor really sucks.

There were other players racing that night, at least one of whom had already turned himself in for racing a few days earlier.

Racing at nearly 0.20 BAC in university cars with university employees (the woman who as assigned the car as part of her “recruiting” role and died in it after their strip club visit):+1:

Right. You can’t just say a 10% share in a $1 billion company is worth $100 million. When you have an asshole like Snyder at the helm any minority stake is probably actually worth $0. He can do all kinds of very annoying stuff like pay himself and his cronies outrageous salaries, hire affiliated firms at inflated prices, expense anything he wants at any time, on and on and on.

Boo hoo :laughing:

Pretty interesting to drill into the individual categories on teams.

There were only two issues that stood out that players feel could use improvement: first, the players feel like the training room is understaffed. The Cowboys trainers grade highly, but the players wish there were more training staff. Second, they are one of seven teams in the NFL that does not offer players first-class seats for travel. Instead, coaches and staff sit up front, and players sit in coach seats both before and after they play.

Some teams like cardinals charge for some meals and other insane things.

It’s especially dumb not to maximize non salary cap benefits.
