It's been 21 months since then-Las Vegas Raiders head coach Jon Gruden announced his resignation. Gruden had faced mounting criticism after the Wall Street Journal and New York Times obtained emails he had written between 2011 and 2018, while Gruden was working at ESPN. Several messages contained racist, homophobic, and misogynistic language directed towards several people, including NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice Smith. The scandal ended Gruden's coaching career, likely for good.  But to this day, a puzzling curiosity has remained: how did such an obscure set of emails get in the hands of the media? Don Van Natta, Jr. and Seth Wickersham have spent the last several months trying to answer that question, and now have an exclusive new report out for ESPN. As Gruden pursues a lawsuit against the NFL, Van Natta joins the show to help us pull at the threads of this mystery. He shares what might have motivated the leakers, and how the leaks triggered a chain of events that ultimately led to Dan Snyder's pending sale of the Commanders. Learn more about your ad choices.

Bank of America's Role with the Washington Commanders Story + BofA Sued for Misrepresenting PPP Loan Guidelines

Back from a mini-sabbatical as I write my NMSU Basketball book to get it out ASAP. I discuss Bank of America's role in Don Van Natta's AWESOME story about the turmoil with the Washington Commanders team and the beef minority owners had with the main owner, Dan Snyder. At the center is a $55 Million Loan that Snyder took out with the NFL's backing without informing his partners, which is leading to an even bigger beef, and also has the feds looking into Snyder for falsifying information. Don can handle the NFL side of things, but I wanted to give my two cents worth on BofAs role, and how they likely felt pressured to do the loan without proper paperwork justifying the loan as to not lose trust in Snyder, his team or the NFL as a whole. I explain why the paperwork matters. I give an example of how an LLC signer can theoretically steal from his partners by creating another LLC and move money elsewhere, and the bank would not be on the hook for it. Plus, I talk about a lawsuit that alleges BofA gave incorrect information to business owners who applied for PPP Loans in 2020. American Banker has the story. (Paywalled, but you can read it for free with an email address) It was said in the complaint that the business owners were told 1099 employees were included in the calculating of PPP Loans, when they are not, leading to people not getting their whole loan forgiven as a result of information. I explain why businesses have an uphill battle to fight on this one, although I explain how BofA used branch employees working from home during COVID to test PPP Loans, when that was not their field of expertise. I also explain how goals/high sales pressure tactics likely had a hand in it as well.

Welcome back to THE Sports Law Podcast! This is your one-stop-shop for all things sports law. The Dans are joined by ESPN's Don Van Natta, Jr. (@DVNJr) to break down the latest on the Dan Snyder investigations. Don recently wrote an article on ESPN that was a great investigative report into the financial misconduct investigations by federal prosecutors in Virginia. A new area of focus is that Dan Snyder allegedly took out a secret $55 million loan from Bank of America without the minority owners' knowledge or approval. Don writes that this loan was taken out 16 months before Snyder bought out the three other minority stakeholders shares in the Washington Commanders. Such a loan would have required approval and sign-off from the three minority shareholders. During the confidential arbitration, the three minority owners began asking questions related to the teams' finances and books and legitimacy of the loan. However, when the three owners pushed the arbitrator for the source and legality of the loan the NFL shut down the arbitration, and shifted to mediation where the three owners then agreed to sell their shares. Further, documents show that for the loan to be approved the six-person board of the Commanders needed to approve the loan (three of which were the minority owners) and Bank of America never received that approval, however NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell's signature is on the approval by the league for the Commanders to take on the loan. The three minority owners, who are billionaires as well, all claimed that Snyder was using the Commanders organization as his own personal piggy-bank, even citing a $4.5 million payment for the teams' logo to be placed on his private plane. A potential conflict could arise from this investigation into the $55 million loan, provided by Bank of America, because Bank of America is leading the current sale of the Commanders organization.

Snyder has been embattled for years in controversies with fellow owners, accusations of a toxic workplace environment, and calls to change the name of the team…the latter of which came to fruition in 2020 after years of Snyder refusing to do so. Don Van Natta tells us how Snyder seems to have run out of options once again…and how the US Department of Justice may have been the final tipping point. Learn more about your ad choices.

Don Van Natta is a senior writer for ESPN Digital and Print media. He was recently named a finalist — along with his reporting and writing partner Seth Wickersham — for a National Magazine Award in reporting for three stories: “Sin City or Bust,” “Standing Down,” and “Roger Goodell has a Jerry Jones problem.” Van Natta has had quite the illustrious career. He’s been on three Pulitzer Prize winning reporting teams — two at the New York Times and one at the Miami Herald. He joined ESPN in 2012, and has since produced many features and investigative pieces centered around the NFL. His profile of Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones in August 2014 is particularly amazing because of the access he got from a subject who initially did not want to participate. In 2014, Van Natta started the Sunday Long Read newsletter with Jacob Feldman, a reporter for Sports Illustrated. The two launched the Sunday Long Read podcast in August of last year, and so far has produced more than a dozen episodes featuring some amazing reporters and writers. Van Natta is currently working on a book with Wickersham. The book, tentatively titled Powerball,” will be published by Crown Archetype in 2020.

The episode is thicker than usual, but it is full of colorful observations, reflective commentary, and expert recommendations on the best recent sports books. We call this final podcast of 2011–the Special Year-End Book List. Instead of a single author talking about a new book, we have a variety of guests offering their views on the year in sports and their choices of favorite books. The suggestions come from a range of sports commentators, in the US, the UK, and beyond. We welcome back to the podcast sports historians Kurt Kemper and Tony Collins as well as New York Times writer Don Van Natta. We hear from a Fulbright-winning doctoral student working in sports history, Shay Wood. The episode features the BBC’s Tom Fordyce and Sean Wheelock of the World Football Phone In; the editor in chief of Baseball Prospectus, Steven Goldman; and Atlanta-based sports journalist Wendy Parker. We get recommendations from E, author of the hockey blog A Theory of Ice, and Supriya Nair, contributor to the soccer blog The Run of Play. And offering his views on the significant recent events in American sports is Robert Lipsyte, longtime sports columnist and writer for the New York Times. Our guests have suggestions for books, new and old, in baseball, football, hockey, soccer, cycling, boxing, and host of other topics related to sports. If you are still making your shopping list, or writing your letter to Santa Claus, or simply looking forward to a gift card from that certain online retailer named after a South American river, this episode will have plenty of good ideas for you.New Books in Sports is then going on holiday for the rest of the season. Look for new episodes in January 2012, when we will discuss recent books on Canadian hockey, Japanese sumo, American owners of English football clubs, and the philosophy of being a sports fan.

My older daughter is twelve years old. Like many girls her age, she has spent countless hours on the soccer field. She has played volleyball and run cross-country at her school. She was the catcher for her Little League baseball team. Now she is taking up fencing. My daughter is not athletically gifted nor in any way competitive, but she takes the opportunity to play sports–any sport. It’s fun, she says simply. My daughter lives in a world that Babe Didrikson Zaharias helped to create. Later this week, June 26, 2011, will mark the 100th anniversary of Babe’s birth. Hopefully, the occasion will bring renewed and deserved attention to a woman who ranks near the top of any list of the greatest athletes of the 20th century. Although she died young, still in the midst of her career as a professional golfer, Babe’s accomplishments in sports were unrivaled. Some will never be topped, such as single-handedly claiming the team title in the 1932 national women’s track championships or winning 14 golf tournaments in a row. But far more than a natural athlete of astonishing, all-around talent, she was a woman determined to make a life in sports. In pursuing this goal, she was ahead of her time. In accomplishing it, she became one of the most influential figures in the history of American sports. Babe was also a colorful and complicated figure, and the fullness of her personality–the talent, the drive, the spark, and the conceit–is revealed in the new biography by Don Van Natta, Jr., Wonder Girl: The Magnificent Sporting Life of Babe Didrikson Zaharias (Little, Brown, 2011), winner of the 2011 USGA Herbert Warren Wind Book Award. A long-time correspondent with the New York Times and three-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize for his journalist work, Don brings his talents as a writer to a story that is, at turns, exciting and poignant, inspiring and funny. Don’s biography of Babe is a masterly portrait of an extraordinary woman: a book that our sports-playing daughters–and sons–should read. Learn more about your ad choices.
