Redskins Reestablish Ties

[MTK]

It's great to have a GM in Allen that understands and appreciates the rich and proud tradition of the franchise. Alumni should be embraced like this. It amazes me that Snyder didn't make this happen a long time ago considering he grew up as a fan.

I have always wondered about this myself. I don't know what the deal was when he first took over. Maybe he just got bad advice, or who knows what else.

I really hope that Bruce does exactly what he sets out to do. The older players are excited and there is a different "feel" in the air. Much more so than any of the other things Snyder has tried.

Yeah, me too. When I first heard that Danny charges former players for tickets THAT ARE IN THE UPPER LEVEL I nearly threw up! Partly because I know that they have seats set aside in section 101, which for those of you that don't know section 101 is where the owner's box is. These seats were only a few rows down from the owner's box, but still................GREAT SEATS! I know this because my former boss' girlfiend did Mrs. Snyder's nails. And Mrs. Snyder hooked her up with free tickets to the game. I didn't believe that my boss got those seats for free from the Danny. Well, I didn't believe it until my boss showed me the tickets and low and behold it was Section 101 and the price listed on the tickets was $0.00. That just pissed me off! How Danny's wife gives out free tickets to someone doing her nails, but the Danny charged ex Redskin players then threw them in the upper level!

But, this Alumni thing sounds like a step in the right direction. Who knows, maybe Dexter Manley will show up to one of these sometime and tell Andre Carter or Orakpo just how much he hates Tony Romo's smile then tell them to do something about it.
