Specifically black racism, with a possibility it was a bad native American joke during this fiasco. That's what's hot right now. Nobody cared about Kraft and the underground Asian sex trade going on(Not saying he knew, just got a handy). You gotta give the mob what they want, even if the thing Kraft was involved with(Sex trafficking basicaly) is worse than a tasteless joke This would be my guess as well. Santos and Mann were probably heard/reported saying some very un PC things... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can go earlier, but this will be more my adult life when I understood what was happening He elevated Tanny to GM when he hired Mangini. Mangini was brought in to be like Belichick. Tanny was a a cap guy. Mangini actually built us a good team, just failed as a coach and got fired. Next we hired Rex, or Woody did. We kept the cap guy and let the world's biggest kid make personnel decisions. It devastated the roster he inherited. Tanny the penny pusher got fired. Next he hired Korn Ferry and because the man you credit with reaching out cause it was him being smart and knowing it was outside his lane, kept Rex as a contingency for the GM hire. He spent over 6 figures on the search and we got Idzik because we're dysfunctional. Fast forward. We hired Todd Bowles and made Mac the GM independent of each other, cause we're still dysfunctional. That was a failure as well. Fast forward once again. We hired Adam Gase who ******* hated Mac, rightfully so. Again, this is dysfunction and sh*t rolls downhill from Woody. We let Mac run the draft and spend 100 million in FA before canning him a week later. Seems like him and the coach wherent even talking. Somehow we got a desirable GM to come in after that cause his relationship with Gase. Going forward I hope Dougles is in charge, but history tells me the dude you're defending will F it up I'm not a huge Woody Johnson fan but he's been the owner for 20 years and under him the Jets have had a winning record 9 times. Previous to that the Jets had 9 winning seasons in their first 40 years of existence. Every owner makes bad decisions. 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woody is not a despicable person nor is he a cheap person. He pumps plenty of money into the Jets. Problem is, he is badly limited as an administrator due to his lack of experience and training. He was handed a lot of money and that's the extent of what he brings to the table.

Previous to that the Jets had 9 winning seasons in their first 40 years of existence. Every owner makes bad decisions. 5 of those 9 winning seasons can be attributed to the roster/culture Bill Parcells (Hess hire) developed. Herm lived off the coattails of that era for years. The Johnson's have hired a GM quartet of Bradway, Tannenbaum, Idzik and Macc and HC's Herm, Mangini, Rex, Bowles and Gase. All of those were, at best, Peter Principle'd and at worst were some of the worst at their jobs in NFL history (especially Macc). None were qualified to do the jobs they were hired for. That's an awful track record no matter how you want to view it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't operate as the bold meddlers do (i.e. Snyder). Certain guys are the boss and not meddlers at all (Jerry Jones). Woody is neither. But rest assured, he is a control freak. But behind the scenes. I trust what I have heard from not one, but two people who have worked in that building on different levels. Woody was always there. Always involved. And always aloof to most. There were a handful of "decisions" made by Tanny and undoubtedly Idzik and Mac as well, that were, in actuality, mandates from Woody. To this day, Tanny has defended Woody and the people I mentioned say he is lying. Chris Johnson has been better at letting the GM do his job without interference. But I expect that will end by spring 2021 when Woody returns. I'll keep a lookout for that day. I'll post lanterns. One, if Woody returns by land, two, if by sea, and three if by air. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have excellent facilities and one of the highest paid coaching and medical staffs in the league. He just has no clue about running an organization effectively. I remember a sports radio show where commentary was coming from Damian Woody. It was from 2012, I think. All the fans wanted Brian Schottenheimer axed, One fan called in and asked Damian Woody "WHY DOES BRIAN SHOTTEHHEIMER HAVE A JOB ???" And then the caller hung up. Damian Woody went on to explain that there was a particular NFL owner who likes to feel he is hobnobbing with big, special people. And.... This owner likes to hobnob with daddy Marty Schottenheimer so he can feel like he is in with the big NFL crowd... I was surprised Damian Woody actually came out with it, but there it was... Woody is just a rich kid with little in his resume' but he still wants to look like he's a big man pissing with other big men. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They use their understanding of their staff to place individuals in positions that will take advantage of their strengths and limit exposure of their limitations.

bgivs21 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Someone posted a pretty good timeline of recent events on reddit. They think the entire name change drama stems from whatever the reporter found out. They believe the reporter went to FedEx CEO and told them and FedEx then went to all the minority owners with said information: On July 2nd 2020 Fed Ex CEO and Skins minority owner Fred Smith made it known he would like a name change. On July 5th 2020 it was reported that all minority owners were looking to sell their shares, which raised quite a few eyebrows. Everyone was caught up in the change to the fact they thought this was the minority owners trying to prove a point to Dan, but they stated their reasoning as being unhappy and unwilling to do business with Dan Snyder. Hold the effing phone. One or two minority owners, I might understand, but for all of them to do this at the same time? I thought something was up. July 12th 2020, the Redskins leak they are officially changing their name, and quietly fire two members of their personnel department. That same evening as celebration and disbelief were felt over the name change, a reporter tweeted that some really bad things were about to come out of Redskins Park (the location of the business side of the Washington football team) 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
