Oh, the Commanders fans are expressing their excitement this afternoon!
News of Commanders owner Daniel Snyder agreeing to sell broke today, and the Commanders fans can’t contain their excitement.
Yet Washington Post reporter Nicki Jhabvala reminds all of the DMV that though Josh Harris (Philadelphia 76ers owners) has reached an agreement to purchase the Commanders, nothing has yet to be submitted to the NFL.
So, we need to keep reminding ourselves that this is the next step in the process, but there are other steps before this is final — a done deal.
However, Commanders/Football Team/Redskins fans are so much anticipating this that they are on Twitter already celebrating that we have moved closer to the DMV NFL franchise having a new owner.

Today I'm thinking about Commanders fans like my man @jakeschaller, who had to turn his back on his team until it was sold.
Thursday is a holiday for all of you who had to give up your fandom until a change was made. You can root for your team again.https://t.co/ZMaMLvdeK6

We’ve all learned a very important lesson today. You can be a completely reprehensible human being on several fronts and you will be punished by someone giving you 6 billion dollars. #WashingtonCommanders #NFL #danielsnyder

In celebration of Snyder selling the team, what Bourbon should I crack open tonight?
And would you like a video toast?

I really don’t think y’all really understand how much fun the home opener is going to be. Especially if it’s week one. We had the parking lots lit when things were going downhill. But now???? Maaaannnnn
