    Don't know if Dan Snyder can take this double dose of negative publicity. Maybe this will force him to sell the team to....Jeff Bezos, who owns the paper that broke the story. o_O

    Have to read the article to believe that some of these men are still this neanderthal-ish in this day and age. And some of these dudes are not 70 year olds. There are screenshots. See spoiler.

    This whole thing is not that simple and very interesting. I mostly agree with your characterization of the men, but the women were not powerless or blameless here. Not sure if it was the same woman, but in another screenshot the woman is asking this same dude to bring her food. In other words, the woman welcomed the attention.

    If I put myself in the shoes of these women, I don't think I would have worked there for more than a day before quitting. I would have quickly realized that I and the rest of the handsome men at the company were hired by this women led company to essentially be decoration, eye candy, and a potential "entanglement."

    The women had to have known in their heart of hearts that they weren't important to the company. They had to have known that they could be easily replaced, so they played along to keep on. Now, [UNFOUNDED CONSPIRACY] they were called on to help get Snyder out of the NFL since he wasn't stubborn and stupid enough to fight the name change and either only one agreed to whatever amount of money the paper paid her to go public or they only wanted to pay one.[/UNFOUNDED CONSPIRACY]

    Very interested to see what happens to Snyder now. Hope the conversation surrounding this isn't so one sided and basic.

    Coincidentally, Christina Applegate suffered similar harassment in Anchorman. :(

    Dan Snyder has retained BofA Securities to sell the Washington Commanders, sources tell Forbes.

    According to a person familiar with the process, Snyder already has at least four calls from groups interested in buying the team. Snyder and his bankers are exploring all options and a transaction could be for the entire NFL team or a minority stake.

    Counting inflation, Dan may be the first NFL owner to actually lose money on his franchise sale.

    Dude has absolutely tanked the value of that brand over the last 5 years especially.

    There's 6 feet of it on top of Bob.

    Feel bad for that dirt.

    Never heard of the COMMANDER's before but they should dissolve that team and ownership.

    I mean, yeah, he's probably going to go down as the most universally disliked person in NFL history.
