Everyone associated with the Washington Commanders is excited right now—everyone except the man who owned the team for 24 years before he was forced to sell it in 2023.
The Commanders have advanced to the NFC Championship Game for the first time since 1992, and fans are absolutely loving their new owners. A win over the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday would make what has been an incredible season so far even more sensational.
Now, on the outside looking in, former owner Dan Snyder does not love what he sees.
According to a report from ESPN’s Seth Wickersham and Don Van Natta Jr., Snyder is upset over what the Commanders have been able to do in his absence.
“He f—ing hates it,” the report notes, quoting someone who is very close to the 60-year-old.
There’s hardly anyone out there who feels sorry for Dan, and social media is loving that he hates the team’s newfound success.

What Is Dan Snyder Up To Now?
According to the outlet, Snyder has lived chiefly in London since he sold the team and moves around with a security detail.
He is understood to be trying to sell his remaining real estate assets in the United States and is giving a $35 million estate to the American Cancer Society, having tried to sell it for several months.
The former Washington Commaners owner is also said to be keen on buying a Premier League soccer team, though “others who know him well doubt Snyder will ever own any professional sports team again.”
Meanwhile, the Commanders are scheduled to play the Eagles away at Lincoln Financial Field at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday in the hopes of returning to the Super Bowl for the first time in 33 years.
