He does not like to be told that he is wrong about anything. If one of the security folks told him that it just didn't seem right to forbid someone from bringing in a sign that said "Hi Dad! Stay Safe in Afghanistan!" with an American Flag emblem on it, Danny Boy is 50/50 to fire that security guy on the spot. NO one tells him he is wrong about ANYTHING. If you don't believe that, ask any of the 15 PR people that have come and gone through the Skins organization in the last 6 or 7 years. Only a few of them have truly resigned; the rest have "resigned" - - and taken a buyout with a confidentiality clause.


Danny Boy's yes-men are closing ranks around him to protect him from the ego-abuse he is taking and should continue to take. The more he tries to be a hard-ass about this, the more he will be held up to ridicule - - so long as fans keep the heat on.


Too bad FedEX field is in tightly controlled airspace. I know two private pilots who have planes who want to fly banners around the stadium with a message for fans and for "The Incumbent Owner"... Air traffic control makes that almost impossible.

One needs only a glance to see that what you're saying is absolutely correct.
It's the him against the world mentality, the whole world's wrong and he's right.

He is a coward. He won't speak during the season. He has been hiding behind Vinny for years and now he is hiding behind his slimy lawyer.

Why do you think our players have a weak, excuse filled mentality? Because that is the culture that the owner has created.

This makes me sick.

[Pocket$ $traight]

This media paranoia, fan censorship and handling of Zorn is absolutely pathetic. Gibbs needs to have an intervention with him because it seems that Gibbs is the only person he listens to.

The sad thing is that he truly wants to win and actually thinks that he is making good decisions. He really has some type of disorder.

Wow, that's nothing like the Richmond Race. Man we have a good time. We grill, play games, dance, talk smack, eat, shop, drink, screw, eat some more, and then we get to watch the race. We grill after the race too.

I'm really sorry that I have tickets to the Dallas game. Before the season started people said I was lucky. Now they feel sorry for me. I don't feel bad anymore. I'm going to have a good time and I will show my hatred for this owner. Believe that!

Hey, when is the next race and what time does the screwing begin? LOL. Just thought I'd "pop" in.

Every May and September. They haven't released next year's schedule yet. If you've got any kind of game what-so-ever, you'll find some women there.

I can see DS recinding all the tickets, putting up sheet metal human figures in each seat with a button he can press to pop them up when needed and playing crowd noise at each game over the loud speakers. LOL.

Media sees empty seats prior to game, then sent to a holding room while he presses the button, then media is brought back out with the fans in place. Sorry no fan interviews. LOL.

What the hell is going on with the beloved Skins? It seriously feels like the Titanic. Is Ds the boy in the plastic bubble? Honestly if it was me I'd be humiliated. I hold a press conference where I'd fire VC. Fire whoever is in charge of public relations and find someone new. Fire all these piss ant venders and hire one company to do it all. Hire a real security firm to provide security at the games. Hire a GM in the off season and tell him to fire everyone and bring in top talent. Then take my wife to a warm beach. Show back up in Sept. with a smile on my face.

DS, you need to wake up, get your head out of your ass, be a man, and get control of this situation instead of plodding along as if everything was hunky dory. Your losing your fan base. Slowly.

My cheap but has walked into Walmart and Target and have seen some nice Skins gear, thought about it, and put it back on the rack. I used to be a proud Skins fan no matter how bad they were, but I find myself distancing my self more and more. I'm usually a fan who is sitting on my couch watching the game no matter what. Shopping has to work around the Skins schedule. I find myself just not caring anymore. I turn the game on yet do other things and pop in and watch a few plays here and there. I don't know what it will be like when we are like 2-9 or 2-10.

The good news is both the Caps and Wizards won last night. The Wiz looked good.

They have always pumped in crowd noise over the speaker system. And I agree the wiz look good.

That is sad if they really do that. The now next to largest stadium should rock every Sunday, although with things the way they are maybe not. I hope the Caps can get to see Lord Stanley. They were fun to watch last season.

[Defensewins]

This just in from Redskins park and the Snyderatto FO, it is now banned to have fun at Redskins games.
If you are caught poking fun at the Danny or the FO or having fun in general you will be asked to leave or be thrown out. Only serious behavior allowed in the stadium please.

Well then, for the record, I have an original 'Fire Dan Snyder' tshirt back from the marty era, when the actual website was up. This has long been an issue for me.

Post a pick of the T shirt.

[BrunellMVP?]

Snyder just doesn't get it. To me, he's like a child who covers his ears while yelling "LALALALA- I'm not listening! I can't hear you!" and hopes his problems will go away (if he ignores it long enough or pretends it doesn't exist). Its sad.
Calling police to remove signs and turn shirts inside out? I understand that on private property, you are able to dictate policy however these types of maneuvers simply won't work and will fan the flames (but i guess that is a good thing if we really want change).

[BrunellMVP?]

They official line is that T-shirts are allowed (so long as it doesn't contain profanity), posters on the other hand are prohibited.

[doughtydoubter]

sad that its come to this...and yet stilll people will go to the games and buy expensive hotdogs and put money in his pocket
