Seriously...anyone who deosn't/hasn't had season tickets and therefore has never tried to sell them has no idea what they are talking about when it comes to the market for these tickets. Everyone ASSUMES they can get X amount of dollars for a ticket. Issue is that for every Dallas/Pittsburg ticket that is worth double face there are 4 or games worth almost nothing. The disparity is THAT MUCH. No one...NO ONE wants tickets to a St Louis game for anywhere close to face value because so many people just don't go. Supply drives the price way down. If you can take a pair of season tickets and sell them for face before the season you're lucky...very lucky. Usually you have to sell the pair for individual games and hop the monies from the big games counters the pantsing you take on all the others.

I was at the game and didnt really notice that many Cowboys fans. I did however notice that many of the Skins fans didnt cheer for the Skins, or even make any noise when the Cowboys had a 3rd or 4th down for that matter.

I wasn't there but I think this is getting ridiculous. Even that lagger Bill Simmons was piling on the DC fanbase this week. There is no team in the league that doesn't consistently have visiting fans in their stadium. Moreover, in situations in which the home crowd is appropriately quiet (eg fourth and short) or just demoralized (after a loss) you will be able to hear this minority of fans. Cos, ya know, the stadium is quiet. This happens at Cowboys games and Patriots games and lots of places. While our homefield is not as intimidating as Pittsburgh or Kansas City, let's not turn us into Arizona or Oakland.

The Pittsburgh game was an anomaly, it doesn't mean we never have home field advantage anymore.

And you weren't even at the game? That makes this the dumbest thread in a long time.

Just to bring some simple point up...When our offense is on the field most people get quiet. Which means if there were 5 people chanting go Dallas they would probably be heard. Now multiply that by thousands for the Skins and a measly 5- 10 thousand Dallas fans. Our stadium holds what 90,000. 10,000 Dallas fans are nothing. and it also boils down to the Skins ticket holders selling out to whoever will pay. I could have gotten tickets for $150 a piece. To much for me but some idget Dallas fan might have paid that.

I was watching the anouncers in the parking lot interviewing people and they spoke with a woman from Pennsylvania who said she makes all the games cause they have season tickets. My first thought was ...what in the hell? but then thought it's not that far probably. but this is the problem when you move the team to MD and move it away from the very community it's named after. I know we have fans all over the U.S. but it sorta pissed me off cause at some point that fan may decide hey ...I don't feel like driving down there today cause I'm feeling sick or I don't care about the match up so let me give the ticket to whoever wants it or will pay me for it. which happens to be the opposing teams fan next time.

that chant wasn't even that damn loud! There weren't anymore Cowboy fans there then in previous games!

You guys are blowing this out of proportion!

But, if you did want to know where the Cowboy fans got tickets..........they called the Redskins Ticket office. Maybe you all should try that for the Giants game. I mean, if you want less Giants fans there you should really think about trying it. I know I'm going to be doing that. But, I must warn you! It could be as much as $500 for two tickets!

I was at the game and of course there were the usual dozen or so cowboys fans in my section, but it wasn't anywhere near as bad as the Pittsburgh game.

AGAIN. all game.

You know the refs really got to me this game, But I did'nt wanna use it as an excuse. However I wake up this morning to pacman being reinstated I mean c'mon how many chances can this piece of shit get, If you couple this with the refs on sunday nite you come back to the leagues love afffair with the cowboys, They are so popular so it's better for the league to have them playing well I'm calling shenanigans or however you spell it.
