I always tell this story and I guess this is why Dan Snyder will be a good dude as far as I am concerned. Now he can do some pretty dumb stuff but much like anyone else I have had dealings with but I accept that about them.

Now I went to the Redskins Welcome Home Luncheon a few years back. My wife got them for me as a present for my 30th birthday. I remember it was the year Sean Taylor died and I got to meet him and shake his hand, get his autograph you know the fan stuff. he seemed very shy when speaking but let me move on. So I go by Dan Snyder who is just chilling talking to a I forget who. I tell him to keep working at it and eventually things will work, I reach out to shake his hand. The security guys rush over and grab me, so needless to say I felt a little off becuase you have thsi room full of people and they are about to drag this black guy with locks out of the dinner. He waves them off, says thank you, shakes my hand and says hows the steak ? I say it's great my wife doesn't eat beef so I had two. He laughed and said Hail To The Redskins.

For that, he'll always be alright with me, what he does with someone else I can't speak for. I'm a fan and he comes along with the meal so hey, find the good things !

Sorry for ranting
