What NFL Owners Don't Want You to Know, with Don Van Natta Jr.

Right. He's saying the NFL is a mafia, and I have enough information that I've gleaned about them that I can blow up the whole league if they try to take my beloved team away from me. And the fact that he had his hand in their pockets and was not sharing all the revenues that he was supposed to share from a team, by the way, that was last in local revenue.

I mean, Washington is supposed to be one of the top franchises in the NFL, and they were last in local revenue and with the stadium crumbling. And it was basically Snyder was costing them money and was threatening to blow them up. It was Jerry Jones who was the final firewall of support for Dan Snyder. And I think the reason for that is because Jerry liked Snyder when he first showed up.

Jerry saw in Snyder a little bit of himself, this sort of renegade who was going to come in and shake up the National Football League. And so I saw it in 2014 when I did my profile with Jerry Jones. I spent the summer with Jerry when we drank the Johnny Walker Blue. And Jerry still has a flip phone or had a flip phone then. asking for advice about a stadium that never got built.

He knew all the buttons to press with Jerry to ingratiate himself. And so when Snyder was on the ropes, Jerry held the line as long as he could. But then when he heard that dirt had been dug up on him by somebody he had looked after and held the line on, I think that was the final straw.

So the last night when he's closing the deal, which we just reported, Seth Wickersham and I just a couple of weeks ago, he still doesn't want to give up his beloved team. Even though the deal is done, he has an agreement to sell it to Josh Harris and his fellow investors for a record $6.05 billion. In the middle of the night, Snyder is holding on to his

And in the days leading up to it, there was a thought of, well, maybe we can say that Snyder was drunk when a lot of these things happened.
