“This could push his a** out!” Pat McAfee believes Dan Snyder will be forced out of ownership of the Washington Commanders

Dan Snyder has been the owner of the Washington Commanders since 1999 when he purchased the team for $800 million, a record at the time. His time in charge hasn’t been the smoothest, however.

Earlier this year, Dan Synder had the Commanders in some trouble when he was accused of sexual harassment by a former cheerleader, Tiffani Johnston. She claimed that Snyder had made unwanted sexual advances against her while she was a Commanders’ cheerleader. That resulted in a $10 million fine for the team and Snyder being removed from the day-to-day leadership role of the team and being replaced by his wife, Tanya.

Now, Congress is investigating the Commanders for financial impropriety. ‘Front Office Sports’ reported investigators were specifically looking into if the team had been using two books for their financial information to alter the image of the team’s financial position. In particular, they are checking the debt Dan Snyder undertook when he bought the team as well as deceptive accounting practices and an alleged gender pay gap disparity.

Pat McAfee took all this into account and shared his thoughts on the subject along with AJ Hawk.

In a segment of his show, ‘The Pat McAfee Show’, Pat McAfee was quoted saying “After all the reports about the Washington Commanders being a toxic environment, for the consistency of terribleness coming out of that Washington building, you thought it couldn’t get any worse. But, somehow someway, Dan Snyder has been able to slither his way through the entire thing.”

McAfee also added “Now that Congress has an actual thing that they can get pissed off about, I think this could be the one that pushes Dan Snyder’s a** out of ownership because the government doesn’t play if they think they got the raw end of the deal money-wise. We all understand that literally since we were children.”

AJ Hawk chimed in as well saying “If you’re withholding take dollars that the government expects you to pay, yeah good luck getting out of that. If you add that to all the other things that have been going on with this team, yeah, how in the hell is Dan Snyder keeping control of the team and keeping ownership.”

The previous allegations and now this new financial one will be investigated for the time being but it really is not a good look for the Washington Commanders and especially Dan Snyder. Whether or not he actually will be forced out of ownership is yet to be seen but it’s hard to imagine him coming out of this cleanly.
