Harris: “I feel an awesome responsibility to the city of Washington. I know what I’ve got to do… Ultimately it comes down to winning…. It’s on me and our ownership group to deliver.”

If you’re not a DC sports fan, you don’t get it.

If you didn’t grow up a Redskins fan, you don’t get it.

It feels like DC is getting something back that was stolen. And it’s damaged & not the same (Commanders), but you’re getting it back years after it was taken.

What a day.

Am i the only one that noticed Josh Harris didn’t refer to the team as Commanders during the press conference? He kept saying Washington Football Team. Could a name change be coming? #Washingtoncommanders

Daniel Snyder will pay the NFL $60 million as part of the closing of the Commanders sale after the Mary Jo White investigation concluded that the team withheld revenues that should have been shared with other franchises and that he sexually harassed a former team employee.

Mary Jo White concluded her investigation, stating that the Commanders withheld approximately $11M in revenue that should have been shared with other teams. The investigation also found that Dan Snyder sexually harassed a former team employee.

White also noted that the…

God is so good…I still can’t believe it! I am currently living in an answered prayer. Since beginning my journey as an athlete and now businessman and team owner, it’s all been a dream that has come full circle. I grew up playing football as a kid, I’m a huge NFL fan, and I…
