Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...

Seriously? Um, we are not the Steelers. We are not the Patriots. Has it really come to this? WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO TAKE WINS FOR GRANTED.

If you are a person who won't cheer your team when they need it but then will boo after we win, just sell your tickets to a real fan because you are an embarassment. One of the last things that this team could trumpet was fan loyalty and even that is going down the toilet.
Fans pay for their tickets, they can boo all they want. Does that make it right? Not necessarily.

The fans aren't idiots.. They're just tired of seeing this team struggle year in and year out against teams who are obviously worse than they are.

Redskins fandom is a weird thing. We'll hate you when you're bad and love you when you're good. But I think the Redskins have some of the most loyal and classiest fans you'll ever meet.

Plus, you're not taking into account that Henson basically patronized and alienated the entire Redskins fan base by saying, he makes more than we'll ever make working our 9 to 5. That is screaming Napoleon complex.

If Henson had a problem with the booing and tweeted his feelings about it with some TACT, that's okay. But the fact he was a complete douchebag, is what's getting him so much backlash.
