Li'l Danny Snyder's Shortcut


Washington Redskins owner and "Hi Y'all" Romney contributor Li'l Danny Snyder has caught shite to the tune of a $36 million penalty from the National Football League and his fellow owners, having maneuvered improperly to gain an advantage over other teams during last year's free agency period. Kaplan Daily's Sally Jenkins has a few choice words (no link) about the little turd's shortcut (oops, better not use a word with "short" in it; Li'l Danny might be sensitive about being vertically challenged):
"Underneath the numbers, there is the sense of something personal in what the NFL did to Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder. Strip away the legalese and salary cap terms, and what we are left with is the fact that 28 other owners were so furious with Snyder that they decided to kneecap him. Call it a lifetime achievement award for how he does business. [snip]

Snyder is like a huge costly lien against the team that prevents it from getting ahead. Call it the Snyder tax."

Given Li'l Danny's knack for getting his man-boobs in a ringer while unerringly doing the wrong thing, we can only hope he continues his support for "Hi Y'all" Romney and fellow Rethugs, and that the luck o' Li'l Danny rubs off on them.
