Another Day, Another Investigation for Dan Snyder and the Commanders

By -
The U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia has launched an investigation into Dan Snyder and the Washington Commanders.  This one is criminal. The US Attorney alleges financial improprieties against the team.  This investigation was started by a letter sent by The House Oversight Committee to the Federal Trade Commission alleging deceptive business practices. 

Commanders outside Counsel released the following statement to ESPN.  “It is not surprising that ESPN is publishing more falsehoods based solely on anonymous sources — given today’s announcement.  We are confident that, after these agencies have had a chance to review the documents and complete their work, they will come to the same conclusion as the team’s internal review — that these allegations are simply untrue.”

According to ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio, "Currently, the Commanders and Snyder are being investigated by the league, the Oversight Committee, multiple state attorneys general, and now the federal prosecutor in Eastern Virginia."

How many investigations does it take before you throw in the towel?  Is this the reason Dan Snyder hired a consultant to explore a sale?  Byron Allen, it's time to come on over and take off your shoes.

DC AG Files Lawsuit against Snyder, the NFL and Commissioner Goodell

By -
DC AG Karl Racine is filing a civil lawsuit against the Washington Commanders, owner Dan Snyder, the National Football League and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell stating  they collectively lied about allegations of a hostile work environment and workplace harassment and that Snyder was not only aware of those issues, but "encouraged and participated" in it.   Racine gave us a few quotes: "We're standing up for DC residents who were repeatedly lied to and deceived" "The Attorney General's office reviewed thousand of internal documents and emails uncovering clear wrongdoing of D.C. residents and their consumer rights" Its safe to say D.C. is no longer putting up with Dan Snyder and Roger Goodell's sh*t.  Good for them.

AFC Playoffs

By -
The AFC East looks like the division that has it all together.  With every team 2 games above .500 or better, the wise bet would be the AFC SuperBowl representatives would come from this division.   Then you have to remember that the KC Chiefs, LA Chargers, Baltimore Ravens, and the Tennessee Titans are all very much in the mix.  The AFC Playoff picture, as of today looks like this: 1) Kansas City Chiefs 2) Miami Dolphins  3) Tennessee Titans 4) Baltimore Ravens 5) Buffalo Bills 6) Cincinnati Bengals 7) NY Jets Once again, I know a lot can happen in 5 games, and this list is far from finanalized.  Who are you picks for the AFC playoff representatives?  Who is going take it all the way to the Superbowl?
