Some MeToo stuff and other shit is supposedly gonna drop any day now about Redskins under Jay Gruden. It’s been hyped up all week so who knows if there’s much really there or not

They let go of some pro-player personnel (including the director, I think) earlier this week. I'm guessing they told someone in the front office they liked her haircut. Daniel Snyder finding a way to take attention off the name change. "Yeah, I might be a dick, but look at these ass holes. At least I didn't sexually harass anyone"

Its just reddit hearsay. 99% of blue checkmark "insider info" is just bullshit from reddit, or better yet some reddit discord.

And everything you read on reddit is false btw. Its all LARP.

That’s completely wrong. I’m not a Reddit guy really but usually when there’s this much smoke there, there’s fire.

Saw this on Reddit in regard to why the details haven’t come out yet. I think it makes sense. Who knows though

Quote:
While for some it's probably about the ethics of not "stealing a story" that's not exactly a dominating practice in modern journalism, What I'm really getting from the lack of anything from others is that it sounds like these accusations are so weighty and serious that you'd have to be absolutely certain of your sources to report them. To do it second and third hand and not be able to personally turn to your source when you're pushed back would be career suicide. The Post has made its name with investigative whistle blowing stories (Watergate, Pentagon Papers, etc.), it's perhaps one of the most uniquely equipped papers to handle this and the Redskins legal posturing/intimidation. I can attest that Joe Blow blogger doesn't want any of the smoke that's going to come from this, even if he does know the story.

The reason this story is taking so long to come out is likely because the Post had to do its own legal due diligence. If arguably the greatest investigative paper on the planet (I really don't even think it's arguable) is sitting on a story for a while then it means they're getting their ducks in a row and it's going to be a whopper.

That sounds like Bernsteinian rationalization but as you say we'll see.

The Redskins were basically prostituting their cheerleaders in a foreign country and everyone more or less shrugged it off because their dogbrains can only focus on one thing at a time, i.e., the name being bad. Literally if the Ravens had done it they'd have been destroyed.

Oh shit that’s right I forgot about that story.

ok so what's wrong with that again? especially in the eyes of the degen libs? I dont get it. aren't we in the era of "if it feels good, do it"?

or are we doing that "selectively puritanical" thing where we police people's sex lives.

Well if he was stealing drugs from the team doctors that would be kind of a big deal. Sean Payton knows ya gotta win a super bowl to pull that kinda shit off.

Even if it doesn’t seem like much to us my guess is Jacksonville will be looking for a new OC by Friday

I hope it’s something enormous. Damning evidence found of Snyder involved with Ghislaine and Epstein or some wild shit like that

Nearly 100 percent of the Washington fan base is hoping it is something that could force him to sell. Probably will not be.

Not really. Don’t play that lame ass game like the leftists you constantly whine about do. Kids got raped whether or not Snyder was involved.

Snyder seems too uniquely joyless to get caught up in that. All he wants to do is fire people.

I agree, plus I don’t have confidence in that actual story coming out.

Seems like it’s gonna be pimping out cheerleaders and some weird sex party stuff.

Not really. Don’t play that lame ass game like the leftists you constantly whine about do. Kids got raped whether or not Snyder was involved.

its just weird that you would hope that for quite a few reasons. one, dan snyder probably isn't that bad of a guy even though you irrationally loathe him. and even if you do irrationally loathe him, to hope (your words) that he's a child rapist seems too far.

for a person you've never met and know really nothing about. he's a bad football owner and you think that makes it fine to wish he rapes children? i dont agree with that. sorry, its too far.

Well that’s because you’ve turned into a pretty lame Nancy (tho it’s better than your last Hitler Youth bit you tried on) that’s not much different than the social marxists you claim to detest.

There’s bad people in this world. I don’t give a shit if Snyder is truly evil or if he’s just your run of the mill scumbag that’s already been documented. I’m just hoping there’s a lot to this story and it’s not “Jay Gruden was fucking cheerleaders while slamming Oxy”

I'm not sure about that one. Everything about his Redskins ownership points to him being a pretty lousy guy. Most team owners are, I think it just hits harder with him because he seems like he would be a Mark Cuban figure but turns out to be a petty tyrant who screws everything up.
