Perspective | Dan Snyder’s fellow owners have finally been taken hostage by him, and there’s no easy way to free themselves. The NFL deserves it.
You know when the owners started caring? When it finally became clear that Snyder had so exhausted local goodwill thatAnd only now are they fully grasping his deviousness. A word of advice to NFL owners, and prospective bidders, from a longtime Snyder chronicler: He does not function as you do. You may think he’s just another billionaire who eventually will accept terms in a rational self-serving negotiation. He’s not, and he won’t. Don’t underestimate how disordered he is.

Meeting Snyder’s demands never works — he inflicts maximal hell on anyone who accommodates him because he mistakes it for sucker-dom.
