Don’t **** with the league asshole LMAO

I’ll give them 20 dollars or the rights to Trevor Lawrence, whichever is worth more.

That team is worth so much..

This number is going to be ****ing insane.

6 Bil?

I guess his claim of having "dirt" on the league was bullshit. Shocking.

A lot of money is like duct tape.

If he opens his mouth, they can take it away.

It's gonna be a metric shit ton.

Oh, he has dirt on the league. His friends on the Hill told him to pipe down, the NFL is untouchable. ROFL

Lets all band together and make an offer and let CP run the team.

Elon, Cuban or Bezos.

Yeah, his choices were make $6 billion+ dollars and live like a king the rest of his life, or go toe to toe with 31 other powerful criminal empires and their well connected corrupt owners.

Tough call. :rolleyes:

I can't imagine the other owners would want to deal with Musk, and doubt he'd want a team. Would think Bezos couldn't because of conflict of interest with the TV deal

It's time.

Bought it for a billion, gonna sell for 6

Seems like a good Investment.

Lerner has got to be the front runner, no?

Bezos

So he paid what, 750 mill and he can't stop making stupid decisions and acting like an ass so his punishment is 5 billion in profit.

Potential COI there.

Nah, he knew who he was dealing with when he made his claims. They called his bluff, and he can enjoy the rest of his days on a tropical beach somewhere.

I was being sarcastic. The NFL is rigged, you know.

I'd guess they've got that all lined out

Whoever buys it needs to rename it again.

Jones said I will kill you mother ****er!

He will be laughing all the way to the bank.

Washington Prime?

Thats what i was wondering, do you think they will? Especially seeing as the name is so new and not really a beloved commodity.

It's about power and influence to the owners.

They have no idea the value of money anymore.

Hasnt Cuban expressed interest in the past?

I know you're kidding but I kinda like the ring of it. It's definitely better than Manders.

I'll repeat... The fact that it is this damn hard to get rid of an owner who is cartoonishly bad in every possible way, including illegal shit, is such a drain on sports.

Owners need to have skin in the game. If this is the bar for how low you need to go before anyone considers selling that's a massive problem. Fans and cities that shower teams with public funding should have at least a tiny bit of accountability

Once you reach a certain threshold, no amount of incompetence can keep you from making money.

DMV is celebrating right now.

Washington Wombwreckers

It would be much better if the teams were owned by trusts of the municipalities where they are based. Cities should not be held hostage by a bunch of greedy one who sucks the peniss once their stadium needs its first paint job.

Washington Progressives

Their mascot would be that aging hooker from the insurance commercials.

This is right in Bezos wheelhouse.

Tilman Fertitta may have an interest too.

There's also BIG money around D.C. and we could see a group of locals pool resources.

Yeah, that would be nice. I'm not sure I'm a fan of government investing in sports teams as opposed to jobs and housing and that sort of thing, but I guess it could be the college model. The city invests in a sports team because it produces excess revenue that can be used for actual real government purposes.

Washington Swamps

Not bad. Shit allover your pants, yourself and everyone around you and your punishment is to make billions in pure profit to go the **** away forever.

W. O. K. E. woke! woke! woke!

NFL finance committee meets in March. That's when the team gets sold. Auction will take place and there's going to be 20 or 30 bidders.

Hooters look out, Kitties will be a lower competition

No. He just realized who the real owners are.

Potential sale of The Commanders

waiting for:

some sports star to think he/she can afford an NFL team

someone to over pay just so they can get the team making a supposed a-hole a multi-billionaire (sacremento kings)

I still like having some kind of ownership interest, but something along your lines at least ensures the city that bends over backwards for a team at least gets some say. Anything to at least create some accountability. Of course it's all a pipe dream because nfl owners and therefore the league would never allow it

NFL specifically outlawed that as they don't want another Green Bay situation.

You know it.

I wonder if the new ownership will change the name again

What's wrong with the Green Bay situation? Do they send some drunken peasant in a cheese hat to the annual owners meeting?

Green Bay, the city, is by far the smallest city to have a major sports team. The Packers are communally owned so the NFL can't threaten to move the Packers to say Milwaukee. The NFL basically has no leverage over the city of Green Bay.

I know a Commanders fan that's been hoping and praying that Snydes would sell. He's a very happy dude today, restrained and cautiously optimistic, but very happy.

You're right dude, there is absolutely no corruption whatsoever in politics, sports or anything else on planet Earth. Everything is on the up and up and the league is run by a close knit group of church choir members. They just like to get together and sing hymns and worship the lord. LMAO

I wouldn't doubt for a second that Snyder has plenty of dirt on quite a few of these ruthless shitheads, and just decided it would be stupid to try and go after the golden goose that feeds 31 of the most powerful men in America and he would just go ahead and take his $6 billion, as any sane person would after the initial anger wore off.

I got a buddy that is an expert at evaluating Pro Sports teams I'll give him a call and see what kind of price we are looking at.


After talking with my buddy the best I can do is two fiffy

What claims did he make? I guess I missed that.

LOL

If he’s being forced to sell it, he might as well change it back to the Skins just to piss off Goodell.

Not to mention the NFL has been instrumental in saving his ass and covering up for him. It works both ways for him.

Packers are horribly run. Them not having an owner is why they dont win Super Bowls with a 31 years of franchise QBs

Very true, I'm not sure how the guy thinks he has anything to complain about. Then again, after the initial anger subsided, it seems he realized that too and is going to take his $6 billion dollar golden parachute and get out of everyone's lives.

Imagine being such a blowhard and driving what was once the NFL's most prestigious organization into the ground and coming out of it making $5 billion dollars. Some people really have it rough. :rolleyes:

We're gonna need that dude who started Dropbox to show back up and chip in. Biggly.

And somebody's gonna have to kiss and make up with Dane.

Because I got about tree fiddy to contribute to the cause and I don't think we're gonna get very far at that clip...

{Frank McCourt nods his head approvingly}

Best I can do is tree-fitty.

I doubt the NFL would want Musk. As mentioned, Bezos could have a potential COI, so Cuban is the logical choice of those 3. The Walton family is out, having just bought the Donkeys.

The potential $6B price tag is going to be pushing the limit for even the most wealthy. I'd look for some kind of partnership with a group. That way foreign money could be involved.

The Baltimore Ravens have won as many Super Bowls with Trent Dilfer and Joe Flacco at QB the past 30 years as the Packers have with Brett Favre and Aaron Rodgers.

That tells you all you need to know. You should see the mini Vatican City type layout they're building around Lambeau, though! Condos, office buildings, restaurants. If you have money, they'll take it!

The NFL likes having a 50.1% owner.

Dick rocket Bezos is the logical choice.

bank of america is pretty shitty to be willing to do business with such a person

They could change the name to The DC Corruption

I wonder if someone tipped him off. Sources: U.S. attorney's office investigating Commanders over alleged financial improprieties

Or he knows they're about to dig into some REALLY unsavory shit and just decided to take the billions and **** right off. He's been under some type of investigation by Congress for a bit now, right.

If I could afford to buy the team the first thing I would do is reinstall the REDSKINS as the name. **** the haters! :evil:

Dolt on Brother. Keep on Dolt'n! It's what U do best. :evil: U are a masterpiece in your own mind. Enjoy your illusion.

So are they now going to be called the Bank or America Football Team?

The Washington Football team was a badass name.

They should bring it back.
