There must be a reason that NFL team owners just don’t seem to have a significant movement to try to do something to knock Dan Snyder out of the league. It’s one thing when he’s simply spending money in all the wrong places and slowly eroding all the passion in one of the NFL’s top markets. However, in recent years, reports have been published about the football franchise in Washington leading people to believe that it is as toxic as molten sewage.

According to a ESPN’s recent reportmany NFL team owners do wanted Snyder out but they didn’t want any part of his vengeful side. Snyder allegedly hired private investigators to gather damaging information about other team owners. Well, a member of the NFL’s 32 leaders who clearly had enough and didn’t care what information Snyder’s private investigators may or may not have. That person is Jim Irsay, owner of the Indianapolis Colts, and hopefully that opens the door for more NFL team owners to talk to.

“I believe that removing him is the owner of [former racial slur nickname]“Irsay told the media in New York on Wednesday.

Merit, certainly there is. Had a cheering trip in 2013 in which alleged sex-trafficking techniques were used, numerous employees were fired for sexual allusion to female employees and media, and one allegation of sexual assault in 2009 against Snyder by a woman who received a payment of $1.6 million, which he and his attorney asked him to agree to just to avoid court trouble. Another former staff accused him at the beginning of his year about informal sex in 2008. Snyder has denied all allegations of misconduct.

This toxic office culture is currently being investigated by the US Congress, and even NFL commissioner Roger Goodell has been called before a congressional committee to testify. An NFL investigation revealed that Washington’s workplace was indeed toxic and Snyder was fined $10 million and suspended. The situation is almost like an NBA owner being forced to sell recently. Robert Sarver’s workplace is malicious and hostile towards women – as did him – and he was also fined $10 million and ordered to give up day-to-day activities.

The main difference between the two is that Sarver used racial slurs, while Snyder instead allowed them to be drawn in the end area, and also that neither woman accused Sarver of misconduct. sexual fruit. The NFL had results from their independent investigator presented orally, in contrast to the NBA, who release theirs publicly. Don’t expect the House Oversight Committee to act the same way as Goodell.

Sarver decided to leave immediately after receiving the punishment. Snyder continued, although ESPN’s Seth Wickersham tweeted that Goodell confirmed that his status has not changed when it comes to his involvement with the team, while Snyder’s attorneys say his “penalty” is over in the ESPN report. In response to Irsay’s comments, Snyder released a statement that for the second time refuted the ESPN report and was adamant that the franchise would not be sold.

For whatever reason, the NFL didn’t act quickly to try to get rid of Snyder. In the end, at least one of the people in charge spoke up. Snyder is facing decades of sexual assault allegations by his franchise, by different people and in two different countries. Sports Illustrated released a report that former Carolina Panthers team owner Jerry Richardson allegedly sexually assaulted and used a racial slur in 2017 and his team was put up for sale in in less than 12 hours. A man with his statue outside the Panthers’ home stadium rushed to bail.

Irsay told the media that he is not afraid of any information Snyder may have about him. His battle with alcoholism and addiction to prescription painkillers has been public for decades. He even said on profile about it.

A lot of times the accusers, and others who speak out, are not the most pristine characters. However, their own words can lead to change or justice. At least we know in advance that Irsay is at fault, and it’s not some team owner whose history we don’t know that Snyder can reveal.

Irsay was right, what allegedly happened in Washington should not be tolerated and arguably, it has been tolerated for too long, up to the point where Snyder is said to have not had any say on how His franchise works. more than a year. Irsay spoke out loud for the most part, and now the ball is the field of the rest of the team owners.

Because once there was some pressure on them to account for how they felt about one of their own actions bringing shame to the shield.
