Washington Commanders congressional hearing
 

Already off to a spicy start.

<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Things are getting feisty: After Roger Goodell finished his opening remarks, Rep.

Edited blanket statement: everybody is aware this is a waste of time and taxpayer money and all politicians suck eggs. It doesn't mean we can't enjoy the schadenfreude of watching the NFL and Snyder in particular get dragged over the proverbial coals.

Not wasting time.</p>&mdash; Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) <a href="https://twitter.com/MySportsUpdate/status/1539636459170299910?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">June 22, 2022</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

Why is there a congressional hearing for this?

Wat is the hearing about? I don't understand

Yeah, seems like a waste of time.

Issues in the workplace

LMAO Someone asked about why Dave Portnoy is banned. Goodell was baffled

oh for the love of god

It’s DC’s pro football franchise and a GD National embarrassment.

The JFK administration knuckled the team into desegregating. So there’s precedent for forcing change in the team through government action.

I’m sure they’re trying to force the league to shitcan Snyder.

What is this show all about?

Proving Dan Snyder is a horrible owner has already been well established.

you can not own a football team unless you are a "good human"

Waste of time and money which is what politicians do very well.

Absolutely goddamn mind boggling that we are wasting time, money and resources on this garbage with the world in the state that it's in.

LMAO Byron Donalds rapidly emerging as an MVP candidate for this hearing.

Rep. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.): "Me personally, I'm a Cowboys fan. So if the product of the Commanders is not good on the field, that's great for me, personally."

Anti-trust exemption. Since the NFL has it the government can get involved in their business to a much greater degree.

There is also the case of potential fraud against either the other owners, players union, or both.
