Chief Dick Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 (edited) So, I see where Synder is suing this paper for something they wrote. Here's the article. So, does he really do this stuff, or is this just a writer being a wanker? And if this was posted already, please delete. I tried to search for it.

countryroads Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Great article! I tend to believe he would sue, the guy is a world class prick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The writer did nothing but re-cap Snyder's journey of being a moran. I hear the sports writers have banded together and are having a "Write something bad about Snyder" day to back up there fellow pencil jerk.

TimC Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 So, does he really do this stuff, or is this just a writer being a wanker? We were involved in the Punt, Pass & Kick back during the Redskins change in ownership. The difference was night and day. Before Snyder, the kids got seats down on the field bleachers and were treated like royalty...really made to feel special. After Snyder, you were tossed up into the cheapest seats and told to hurry up. Guy is a major d..bag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seahawks21 Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 In Next Man Up, John Feinstein told a story about how Snyder would leak things that would make him look good to certain members of the press and tell them to quote them as "anonymous sources within the team". You could read an article and tell where he interjected himself. I don't know what is funnier, the fact that Snyder would try to use these methods to boost his approval rating, or just that John Feinstein was calling somebody out for being full of themselves.

Ursa Majoris Posted February 3, 2011 Share Posted February 3, 2011 Snyder is a living caricature, a cartoon character. He's Mr Burns brought to life, though he's not as smart as Mr Burns. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tazinib1 Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 (edited) Local DC television sports director lashes out at Snyder "Those who've reviewed Snyder's case find his claims of slander to be little more than trumped-up charges over a farcically written opinion piece. This isn't Russia. You don't get to stifle what the media says just because it paints you in a negative light. "But even more repugnant is the fact that Snyder has threatened to use his wallet to intimidate the newspaper into backing down. In a letter to the newspaper's owners, Snyder's lawyer, David Donovan, said, "Mr. Snyder has more than sufficient means to protect his reputation....We presume that defending such litigation would not be a rational strategy for (you because)...the cost of litigation would quickly outstrip the asset value of the Washington City Paper." In other words, you can't afford to defend this lawsuit, we're richer than you, so fire the author and give up. To their credit, the City Paper has no plans to do either. "But most offensive of all is Snyder's reckless claim of anti-Semitism, saying that the newspaper's cover-art, showing Snyder with horns and a mustache, invokes longstanding anti-Jewish imagery. Well, speaking as a Jew, that's baloney. Moreover, it's an opportunistic and self-serving accusation that minimizes the real pain suffered by legitimately aggrieved Jews throughout the world. As the City Paper correctly points out, the cover suggests a child's scribblings across a photo of Snyder. It doesn't portray him ant-Semitically; it portrays him as a figurative devil, and that's legitimate. And oh, by the way, the cover artist and the editor who approved it are both Jewish. "Snyder doesn't like the fact that people don't like him and say unflattering things about him. And he's discovering that, unlike other areas of his life and career, throwing money at the problem won't fix it. The truth that Snyder fails to grasp is that the only way to stop being portrayed as such an unlikable figure is to stop acting like one."

BeeR Posted February 4, 2011 Share Posted February 4, 2011 What amazes me is that this guy got so rich in the first place, even if he is a business whiz. Even geniuses in business typically have to have SOME people skills. He seems more George Costanza with hair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
