Couple of possible reasons behind the leaks (could have been from WaPo side to stay ahead of the name-change story, or from Skins side to get ahead of it themselves), and a couple of reasons for the delay (Skins lawyers are now involved so most likely delaying the drop).

Can the NFL relegate the team to the ACC and promote Clemson into the league?

My emphasis was on the second part of my post

To be fair, you locked the name thread. Plus, we're mostly idiots here.

Doubtful. This wont be a "Russ Brandon had consensual sex with a staff member and that's frowned upon ethically" story. The stuff that's already coming out is way worse than that. It's not going to be "Dan Snyder ran a sex-trafficking ring" either, but it will still be bad. Look at the links I've already posted.

That's actually a good one.

I like the Bezos idea floated in the other thread. Makes sense.

Whoa Nelly

The whole thread/story in one image: NSFW

This is the best thread about what the story will most likely be about. I'm only posting the main/first tweet because the rest gets vulgar, but follow the link to the whole story.

The link opens at the time stamp. Looks like 1hr 4min in.

For whatever this is worth... Pat McAfee gets a text during his show today containing allegations assumed to be in upcoming WaPo story. Said allegations not only of off the field issues but also on-field issues which could potentially damage the entire NFL.

Even if none of this is true, its hilariously entertaining in the doldrums of the lockdown.

Report: 'Lawyers are involved' in pending Washington football news https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/washington-football/report-lawyers-are-involved-pending-washington-football-news Why the story may be delayed. Proper vetting and fact checking. Not a bad thing.

There is a real story coming. Speculation is that the Redskins DID respond to their request for comment this week, and now it's tied up in legal. But should be dropped today/tomorrow.

I'm sure it will be tough to prove some of the stuff. But he is local and has access to the org and works for former Redskins. Also works for The Daily Caller, so that should be right up your alley! ? It's tough to be skeptical about any dirt in that franchise after what has already come out previously. And look at how much was kept hidden about Russ Brandon even though everyone who ever went to a bar on Chippewa knew about it. Remember, this is the franchise that did a topless shoot with their cheerleaders and pushed them to prostitute for sponsors. So that's our starting point already. Yeah, Im not buying into some of that extreme stuff until I see the real story. I think his main tweet says it all with regards to the main story.

Right. That was just my 2 second blurb because I'm way more interested in seeing what comes out than engaging @LeviF91 who wants to be "skepitcal" that anything bad could have gone down in the Redskins org, and somehow turn it around on "the media". ?

Big difference between sports media and journalism.

There are so many different stories, Im sure not all of them are true (or maybe?). But even if 1 of them is, theyre effed. That guy is also saying Redskins security was threatening outlets who had the stories previously. So maybe that was enough to make them sit. Didnt want to lose further access and didnt have enough concrete evidence yet. The ties to the Bruce Allen NDA expiring recently are pretty interesting. Theyre saying he's the only one who would have some of this info.

Rooney Rule violations too! If even a small percentage of what this guy is tweeting is true, Snyder is effed

Go through his follow up comments on here too Basically, everyone in the Org besides Mike Shanahan fell for the honeypot.

Seeing a lot of chatter about RG3 and why Shanahan didnt want him around.

Do they auction that off with other seized property? One run through the dishwasher and she's good to go!
