Question - Does today's ESPN story about Snyder get a mention tonight?

[Neophyte]

So what do you think? Will Al Michaels mention the story on ESPN this morning?

And if he doesn't, is it because the league called Amazon and tod them not to bring it up?

It's definitely going to be discussed on the pre-game. During the game? Hmmm... that's a very interesting question.

From a news standpoint, I don't know that they can avoid it without it looking like they are trying to cover it up.

Another question is - since the NFL has ABSOLUTE control over content during their broadcasts, if it IS mentioned, is that a really bad sign for Dan Snyder that league ownership might be turning on him for good?

I think the fact that the 'behind closed doors plan to use the Financials to squeeze him out' instead of voting him out to save face is a lead story on ESPN, we're about at defcon1. If they were that worried about him, the plot would have stayed covert

I don't know that I buy that scenario though. If the owners aren't intent on voting him out, he can just keep the shitty stadium we have. There's no absolutel requirement he build a new one.

Possible... depressing to think about an extended life in Fedex, but it's possible.

Al Michaels laying it out for America. Even saying he needs to sell the team. That’s press you can’t buy. Good for Al.

Almost makes you wonder if the league told them talk about it rather than not.

News like this is probably disinformation so no one knows what to really believe. ESPN's checks are indirectly paid by the NFL and thus they will not break ranks without a heads up.

Especially when he just posed with Jerruh before the Cowboys game.

He said it in a weird way, very cautious. "Just from me, but I think they would like him to sell the team." Yeah, I think there are tons of people who want that. Only problem is one guy definitely does NOT want him to do it. Himself.

Ol Danny boy looking pretty rough on national tv. Stress is a MF’er.

Doesn't seem like something the media would jump on and talk on at all.

Maybe he needs a workout buddy...

Danny looks like he's gone insane. Like mentally lost it and has no idea how to act/dress/look in public insane.

Dan Snyder is simply building up an image for his situation. Rather than the suit wearing evil incarnate of his past, looking a little bit more lackadaisical with appearance is simply to make himself appear of a lower class and trigger feelings he is irrelevant and not worthy of attention. I thought he looked like fat grandpa last year.

I mean, he's marketing guy, he knows all the ways to attract and not attract human attention.
