The Bombshell

[Chris]

It all comes down to the NFL ownership collective. Goodell does their bidding. He can really only advise and Snyder is one vote.

What would the remaining owners be afraid of?

I think there's a big difference from reading about the reports in the paper versus watching a video of a woman testifying. I think video gets many more people interested as it hits closer to home.

There’s no way the cheerleader video still exists, you know that and all the emails have been bleach bitted at least thrice.

I agree, however, we live in a TikTok world. Those statements, while raw and eloquent, were too long to keep the interest of most of modern society.

Now, release the T&A video (with proper blurring) and the internet will explode with views and interest.

I watch too much tv not to believe that a copy exists somewhere.

 

[Win4us]

Probably, but he’s rich and evil enough for “accidents” to happen to whomever owns them

The only way anything real happens is if the sponsors get involved. They forced the name change. They could force something to happen here.

The question is, is chronic, systemic sexual harassment and assault as offensive to FedEx and the other sponsors as the name 'Redskins' was.

I don’t know. Even people close to Snyder are probably afraid of him and might hold onto something damaging as an ace in the hole and for self-protection.

I wonder what his wife really thinks of all of this? I know her most recent public statements were lip service as best, but really she blamed others including the women. Now that women are in public making accusations against Dan with witnesses backing up their claims, they have to change her opinion, right? Is she that sheltered and dug in? I mean this isn’t just some media campaign to destroy your family like they always claim.

NFL Responds

 

[Henry]

"We will continue to cooperate, as we have throughout the investigation."

That right there says to me they won't cooperate.

 

[SilentThreat]

And shots fired

 

[Kel Varnsen]

Typical lawyer talk. Also, unless you left with an open HR case (which apparently didn’t even exist in Ashburn), you will always give a positive resignation letter. It’s called being a professional and not burning any bridges. While she may not have ever wanted to work with Snyder and others in the front office, there may be someone there that she may have been fine working with at some point in the future. That’s why a resignation letter should always be positive even if you hate your job, boss, coworkers, or the company. Trying to discredit her for that is extremely weak.

These people are soulless. If our fanbase were worth a damn we would boycott everything associated with this team and demand new ownership. Tough talk.

Hasn't made a difference yet.

 

[SilentThreat]

Here we go... Some tough questions are going to be asked to the NFL pretty soon....

 

[SilentThreat]

Now the lawyers are pissed...

Congress now doubling down with a letter directly addressed to Goodell

I've skimmed it but this is a big deal when they specifically point out the cover up

This is the final 2 paragraphs

 

[Chris]

Over 100 WFT employees participated in the investigation.

Over 100.

Let that sink in for a minute.
