Absolutely ruined the franchise and pocketed a profit of over $5B. Pretty good deal.
Interested to see how he revives his image now as he inevitably becomes ‘Dan Snyder, philanthropist’

I believe it’s spelled “full-on rapist.”
Phonics has its limitations.

Must be nice. Run a franchise into the ground and make more than $5 billion.

He'll be as much a philanthropist as trump is.

Snyder is such a POS and I'm not even a Commanders fan. He's been a detriment to this entire region for years. Cost us both a World Cup bid and Taylor with that hellmouth of a stadium. He is a monster.

worth more on average than the $7.5 million annually FedEx paid
Not sure how management decided that…hey we don't need to pay our employees more or lower customer costs
let's blow 8 mill a year naming a stadium
I just don't see how this will get a return on investment at all
but then again…nobody is asking me advice on my superior marketing acumen

Looks like they could be good back to the old name?

Doesn’t actually look like anyone who has anything to do with the matter has any interest in that, actually.

If the dictator rescinds the transfer of the RFK land to DC (order signed by Biden in January) he will have leverage.
