With the long-awaited sale of the Commanders now official as of Thursday, Colts owner Jim Irsay wasted little time in voicing his support for the move following the seismic announcement.
The 24-year tenure of owner Dan Snyder and his family came to an end after NFL owners voted unanimously to approve the sale of the Commanders to the Josh Harris Group for $6.05 billion. The sale culminated roughly nine months after a public push from Irsay calling for the removal of Snyder as owner amid an ongoing investigation into years of workplace misconduct allegations.

Justin Thomas struggled on Thursday at the Open Championship as he posted an 82. Major championships have not been friendly to him this season.
Justin Thomas struggled severely during his first round at the Open Championship. He shot an atrocious 11-over 82 and seemingly could not catch a break.
The 82 is the worst round of Thomas’ professional career.
In his last major round at Los Angeles Country Club, he shot an 81. So his last two major rounds were in the 80s — it’s clear something is extremely off with Thomas’ game.
Imagine being so famous you can pay $0 and get a chunk of a Formula 1 team. That was the case for Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney and their stake in Alpine.
Last month it was reported that the actors were part of an investment group that had purchased a 24% stake in Alpine’s F1 team for $218.4 million.
However, what we didn’t know was the breakdown within that group. Now, it’s being reported that Alpine was willing to give those guys a piece of the team for nothing, at least in a monetary sense.

Dan Snyder fined $60 million following the release of former U.S. Attorney Mary Jo White’s investigation into the Commanders
The NFL on Thursday released the findings of an investigation conducted into the workplace culture at the Washington Commanders under former owner Dan Snyder. The investigation, conducted by former United States Attorney and SEC Chair Mary Jo White, along with the firm of Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, was requested by the NFL following allegations regarding workplace misconduct were raised at a hearing before Congress.
For the first time in 24 seasons, the Commanders will no longer be owned by Dan Snyder after the NFL owners voted unanimously on Thursday to approve the sale of the team to the Josh Harris Group for $6.05 billion, per ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Harris, who co-owns the 76ers and the Devils, is joined by NBA legend Magic Johnson and David Blitzer of Harris Blitzer Sports & Entertainment in the ownership group. The sale is officially the highest record price for an NFL team in league history.
The question of when Aaron Rodgers will retire is expected to come up a lot during the 2023 season as the new Jets quarterback will turn 40 in December.
While Rodgers previously told reporters that he plans to play “for the foreseeable future” with the Jets, the four-time MVP seemed to further emphasize this idea on Thursday when talking about his time with the team thus far.
“I love being around the young energy, the excitement,” Rodgers said. “There’s a great feel to this team, guys who are young and super talented on their first contracts, many of them.
Former Boston Red Sox pitcher Matt Dermody refuses to bend the knee to Major League Baseball if it means abandoning his faith.
Appearing on OutKick’s “Tomi Lahren Is Fearless,” Dermody discussed how outrage over online posts led to him getting cut by Boston.
He was criticized in June for posts he made in 2021 containing Bible verses deemed ‘anti-LGBT.’
Dermody also received flak for being a conservative, specifically voicing his support of former U.S. President Donald Trump.
Lane Kiffin has discovered that acting like he hates himself in public will keep people from bothering him while taking a stroll down a grocery store aisle. Yes, the Ole Miss head coach has found that belittling himself is the strongest deterrent.
Speaking at SEC Media Days on Thursday, Lane Kiffin found himself speaking on tactics he uses to avoid being bombarded. If someone approaches the Rebels head coach, asking if he’s in-fact Lane Kiffin, he’ll talk crap about himself. This is an interesting tactic, given that he’s so recognizable, but I think this would actually work.
