I have some news. I'm moving to @HogsHaven and will write articles for them now. I didn't expect this to happen so quickly, but a good opportunity presented itself. I look forward to providing everyone with Commanders' content for many years to some. Thanks for the support.

Roster building for the first time in year four seems like a wild thing to say out loud... https://t.co/px1z59XmI1

NEW: Josh Harris' bid for the Washington Commanders was a tad under $6 billion, source tells @FOS. There are also questions around Steve Apostolopoulos' bid, including whether the Canadian has the assets to be considered a finalist for the team. https://t.co/XOSJpyNij8

It's funny to see national reporters unable to grasp the Commanders lack of interest in Lamar Jackson. Seems like they want it to happen.

"We're not doing that"
But what if you did?
"We're not"
But why not now?
"He costs a lot."
But pleeeease. He's so good.
"Still no."
#Falcons owner Arthur Blank told a group of reporters that the Lamar Jackson situation is "very different" than Deshaun Watson from a year ago. Blank did mention there's some concern with Lamar's style and how long it could hold up. He brought up the games he's missed over the…

NFL owners just approved the proposal to allow players to wear Number Zero, I’m told.

One big change coming this training camp: only one cutdown day. (Last year, there were three.) This year’s cut day will be Aug. 29. pic.twitter.com/GWXvXUaS1N

John Mara said that's "adamantly opposed" to the proposal to flex games to Thursday night. "Flexible scheduling, as it is, is really inconsiderate to our season-ticket holders and to people who fill our stadiums every week," Mara said.
— Dan Duggan (@DDuggan21) March 29, 2023
More Mara: "People make plans to go to these games weeks and months in advance. Fifteen days ahead of time, to say, ‘Sorry folks that game you were planning to taking your kids to on Sunday at 1 o’clock, it’s now going to be Thursday night,’ I mean, what are we thinking about?”
— Dan Duggan (@DDuggan21) March 29, 2023
Mara said today's vote was close. He expects the proposal to be re-visited at the next league meetings in May. "To flex a game back to Thursday night, to me, is just abusive and I’m adamantly opposed to it," Mara said.

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell on Giants owner John Mara's comments on TNF flex: "There isn't anybody in that room, anybody in any of our organizations, that don't put fans first."

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell, on John Mara calling flexing of TNF games, “abusive…”
— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) March 29, 2023
“Providing the best match ups for our fans is what we do. But we look at all the impacts. It’s a very important thing to balance between the in-stadium fans and those who watch on TV.”
My understanding is the vote count in the room (no official vote was taken) for the tabled TNF flex proposal was as follows …
— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) March 29, 2023
• 22 owners for it.
• 8 owners against it.
• 2 owners abstaining.
We’ll see if Roger Goodell, who was pushing for it, can get to 24 votes in May.
The NFL announced that teams can now have two Thursday Night Football games per season. Limit was one. Now that’s changed.
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) March 28, 2023
Flexing for TNF is not happening … for now.
NFL owners tabled the #Eagles’ proposal to create a 4th-and-20 alternative to the onside kick, I’m told. So not voted down, but further discussion needed.

UPDATE: Cowboys owner Jerry Jones says he wants the Mary Jo White report about Commanders owner Dan Snyder released. #HTTC
— Darren M. Haynes (@DarrenMHaynes) March 29, 2023
Why? “Because I know everything in the report”
More tonight at 11pm on @wusa9 pic.twitter.com/pQYZEZpHSi
Goodell says “that would be impossible” about Jerry Jones’ claim he knows everything in the Mary Jo White report. Goodell also remains committed to releasing the report.
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) March 29, 2023
Corporate speak.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) March 29, 2023
There's a vast difference between "releasing the findings", and releasing the entire report.
And Goodell knows this. https://t.co/0BWw8npRfJ
Pro tip: before you spend a fortune naming, registering, and marketing your hiso new cocktail bar …. Just run the name past a couple of different English speakers to see if it raises any red flags. pic.twitter.com/Ms6tJH4ID8
