According to new reporting from ESPN's Don Van Natta and Seth Wickersham, when emails from Jon Gruden that contained racist and anti-gay language were leaked to the media it kicked off a chain of events that led to Snyder selling the team to the Josh Harris-led group.
In Craig Hoffman's take on this latest bombshell, "There are no heroes here, there are no redeeming figures at all." Instead, this story about who really leaked the emails – suspects include Snyder, NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, NFLPA head DeMaurice Smith or Desiree Perez, the CEO of Roc Nation – this story contains "nothing but villains."
After going through his opening statement, Hoffman was joined by Van Natta, a Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter who now produces extensively reported exposes about the inner workings of the NFL for ESPN, for an extended segment that is well worth your time to go over all of the jaw-dropping points from this latest story – including the "Blackmail PowerPoint," who leaked the emails, why the emails were linked, how John Elway was almost a Raider(?!?) and much, much more.
