Someone kept giving the organization rope and they hung themselves again. The new comedy, "Bounced Check," is from the franchise that brought you such films as "The owner from Hell" and "The owner from Hell: Afterlife." Instead of a child giving himself $1 million, a Commanders fan gave us his story of trying to cash a $14,000 check that he won from a team Raffle.
Drew talked to The Team 980 about his story of woe. He told Chris Russell of Russell & Medhurst that he won a prize of more than $13,000 at a charity event.
When he moved to the D.C. from Iowa a year ago, he started rooting for the Commanders because he was a Raiders fan.
35 days was the time it took to get the first check. There is a three-day bank hold.
Being a firefighter in California during a particularly hot and dry July is like working in the Commanders' media relations department, where they blamed the bank and wired the fan the money.
He said the money was delivered within two hours after he called into the radio station. He wanted to explain something. He says he did not spend a dime from the first check that bounced. It's smart.
If Dan Snyder ran any other business the way he runs the Commanders, it would have filed for bankruptcy a long time ago and he would have been indicted. There are no consequences for being a disaster of epic proportions if you are a professional sports player.
If you told me the story and didn't name the team, I would've picked him. What are we going to do next? Is it possible that repo men will show up and take back the Commanders gear that their supporters aren't buying?
One can only hope that they take that and more.
