Seriously... tightwad????? Snyder can be accused of being many things... but, I'm pretty sure that "tightwad" isn't one of them...
well let's start with: lowering ticket costs, drinks, hot dogs, parking... etc...
Yup, tightwad is the same as screwing people for their money...IMO
Thats a fair argument.
Then, let's finish with this, from Webster...
Tightwad:
tight·wad
Pronunciation: \ˈtīt-ˌwäd\
Function: noun
Date: 1906
: a close or miserly person
Snyder is not a tightwad. This would suggest that he does not SPEND money. We clearly know that Snyder does not object to spending.
YOU refer to Greed... If you suggest that Snyder is Greedy... that he over charges, that he does not provide value for dollar spent on services and goods that he provides in exchange, you would not get an argument (though, from what I can see, most of his charges are about on par with the league for relative market size and strength) from me.
However... Snyder IS perfectly willing to spend money... often foolishly... and, therefore, NOT a tightwad.
Yeah... no matter how much you'd like... you can't just make up the meaning of a word... unless you are a politician...

I say they should let him go immediately ... as a humane act just like putting a seriously injured or sick animal out of it's misery.
Everyone knows he's gone. He was emasculated publicly a few weeks ago, and he's had to endure the weekly speculation of if he'll be fired each monday after the games.
There is no dignity in watching the man squirm trying to put a positive spin on his and the Redskin's situation. I find the entire handling of this even worse than the weeks Snyder kept Gregg Williams dangling in the breeze a couple of years ago.
There is no salvation, and no consolation prize regardless of what transpires over the next two weeks, and nothing that could happen could possibly be worse than what happened on Monday night ... how could 45-12 and that trick play on national TV fiasco be eclipsed?
PUT HIM OUT OF HIS MISERY ... IT"S THE HUMANE THING TO DO!

Court: "Mr Predsident, what exactly did you mean by saying "Snyder is a tightwad?""
President: "That depends on your meaning of the word "is"".
