I have been a fan of this forum for a long time. I am a huge redskins fan. I was born in 1982 and have been a huge fan ever since.I have read many a posts and i agree mostly, but many of you are just too biased. I know many of you have a problem with Sally Jenkins of the WP. I wanted to get a jump ahead of anyone who did not read the entire article. She hit the Antonio Pierce situation head on. Here is a great quote:
"But ultimately, Pierce is naive. If a team stays loyal and pays players for being "good soldiers" when they're past the point of being productive, ticket buyers snarl and demand to know why the team is under-performing. The fact is, fans don't reward loyalty in the NFL any more than owners do. They reward wins."
