Stop watching and maybe they'll win the rest of their games this season.

:rofl:
Hey, you're the reason they've lost, jinx. :dunno:
Doubtful since I didn't watch watch the first game of the year either because it was on MNF and would have been on way past my bedtime. They lost that one too.
:nono:
They knew you wanted to watch. That's as bad as watching.
I don't know if the Redskins will ever have a winning team again.
Early on when he first bought the team, he thought he could run it like a fantasy football team. Bring in all this high priced talent and they would instantly win. Instead the team had no chemistry for years (which is VERY important in team sports) and they just kinda muddled along. They weren't awful, but they weren't winning like he thought they would either. Then just bad drafts, bad hirings, not treating the players like they should, no one wanting to play there anymore, it's just took a toll. And it's a deep, deep hole to climb out of. He's gotten less 'hands on' than he used to be when he first got the team, but he's the one who sent them into a death spiral.
This is from an article on Barstool Sports from last year, sums it up pretty well:
Let me address that real quick. The Washington Redskins are not what we once were. The Skins are one of those premier, top tier NFL franchises, for sure. All the history, the 3 Super Bowls, the legendary players and coaches, everything. But then Daniel Snyder bought the team. And after that initial Dan Snyder honeymoon stage where he signed every high priced free agent possible, he’s slowly destroyed the fan base’s hopes and dreams through bad moves, through refusing to hire a GM, and you know, treating everyone like shit.
I once made this list of things Dan Snyder cares more about than winning. It went:
Dan Snyder cares about 1) himself, 2) his ego, 3) making money, 4) peacocking his midget dick around waving it in people’s faces, 5) sucking up to people that are cooler than him so hopefully someone likes him, 6) giving his friend’s children positions in the organization they don’t deserve, 7) suing old ladies, 8) paying his employees way too little, 9) paying players he likes way too much, 10) charging 50 dollars to park 3 miles away, 11) charging 50 dollars to leave tickets at Will Call, 12) cease and desisting our “Fire Dan Snyder” shirt, 13) paying people to pretend to be native americans, 14) forcing them to stand in the pouring rain so he can be like “see, I’m not racist!”, 15) buying a radio station so he can attempt to control the narrative, 16) buying the biggest Redskins fan page so he can attempt to control the narrative, 17) suing a newspaper reporter so he can attempt to control the narrative, 18) creating a “fan-run” Twitter account so he can attempt to control the narrative, 19) hiring a BINGO caller to call plays 20) wearing stupid shoes and socks, 21) demanding to draft Malcolm Kelly, 22) finally hiring a GM and then firing him because he tried too hard to do his job, 23) keeping Vinny Cerrato employed, 24) replacing Vinny with the devil himself Bruce Allen, 25-1,050) other things I can’t think of off the top of my head, 1,051) winning.
Like, this is what the fanbase has had to deal with over the last 15 years. There are right ways and wrong ways to run a team, and Dan Snyder has perfected the wrong way. He has alienated this fan base to no end. Now I’ll say this, it’s not Dan Snyder’s fault that they play at Fed Ex Field. Fed Ex is a dump and it’s the worst to go to. But Snyder hasn’t made it any better. All he does is gauge fans for every last cent (see #10 and 11 above). He has never given fans any reason or incentive to sit in hours of traffic to see subpar teams.
Wow..! :lol: I think I liked your explanation better..
:bwaha: That hack QB Osweiller is retiring at 28 years old. Can't believe Elway wasted a draft pick on him and thought he was the franchise quarterback of the future :roll:
Well, the Eagles suck.
Well, the Donkey's have called it a season already. They're entertaining trade talks about Emmanuel Sanders and Chris Harris Jr.
