Why the gently caress would anyone rather be Veep than owner of an NFL team?

I mean, probably isn't like you'd have to divest anything if Trump wins again.

Like if there was some kinda freaky friday thing where I was suddenly the owner of the Washington team I'd change the name myself but otherwise be super happy. If I was suddenly Trump's Veep I'd leak a bunch of poo poo then immediately resign.

I mean, it depends. Pence does little beyond campaign rallies, moronic interviews and occasionally showing up in the Senate.

Dick Cheney, on the other hand, was quite literally the actual president of the country for eight years.

Still not something I'd give up owning an NFL team for.

Itll be to Jared Kushner.

Though getting Snyder out seems like a lateral move st that point?

A cryptic tweet like that can only result in minute front office bullshit nobody will care about. Moving the team would need to have been in the works much longer than two weeks. OTOH please have such a tantrum about changing the name that you move the team to St. Louis, Dan.

Yeah 100% of the time some yahoo teases an ~explosive~ NFL story coming, it’s like “4th string guard no one even knew was on the roster announces retirement” or “undersecretary of toilet cleaning resigns in shame due to Instagram post of him smoking weed”

Obscure to all except those well-versed in Yuuzhan Vong lore.
It’s probably something completely dull and expected by any sane person like “we’re announcing that we won’t have fans in the stands for the upcoming season.”

I know it’s just empty copy, but I don’t think they should say “tradition-rich franchise” when practically all of them reinforce how racist the name is.

I like how the letterhead still says Redskins, from a facility named Redskins Park, located on Redskins Park Drive. How many more times can they get the old team name into a statement?

It could also be anything else. Apparently some realtor had claimed a ton of potential names and while those claims aren’t strong, Snyder would still want to dot his i’s and cross his t’s.

It's amazing what they can do with computers these days.


The funny thing is that the realtor is probably in for an expensive legal bill for his troubles. Trademarks require you to actually use them, so unless this guy is going to start selling merchandise for his made up teams, he's going to get run over in court.
