3 early winners from the Commanders 2023 offseason so far
By Dean Jones
Commanders fans
It’s hard being a Washington Commanders fan. Especially over the turbulent reign of Dan Snyder as the team’s owner.
Washington has gone from a laughing stock to a national embarrassment since Snyder took over. Scandal, a lack of true investment in facilities, suspect loans, and a sub-par working environment have all reared their ugly head – and that’s just in the last year.
Fortunately, this might be over soon. And when the time comes, fans across the land will rejoice.
Snyder is under increasing pressure to sell up. Although the billionaire is adamant he won’t be giving up the Commanders to Jeff Bezos, another strong bid could be arriving in the near future that might be enough for landmark change.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, D.C. billionaire Mitchell Rales has joined Josh Harris in their pursuit of the Commanders. This notable power play is significant and something that provides enough financial clout to strike a deal.
Snyder is going out in disgrace, which is only fitting for someone who’s got almost every key decision wrong since buying the team. Aside from all the off-field stuff, there’s been little to shout about between the lines and the disenchantment is further reflected with poor attendance almost every game at a crumbling FedEx Field.
This reign of terror is almost at an end. When confirmed, Commanders fans will be the biggest winners of all.
