With this tweet:

@RedskinsLB51 All you fake half hearted Skins fan can .. I won't go there but I dislike you very strongly, don't come to Fed Ex to boo dim wits!!

:doh:

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Thanks for posting. We were discussing in the other thread. Seriously, what an asshole. B.Mitch gave him a serious lashing over this.

I hope he was watching Comcast.

Rookie mistake.

He has no idea what he's brought on himself. Dumbass.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

He's addressing fake ass half-hearted fans. I'm not one so I guess we're cool people Rob. Don't hate on my man Rob folks, I'm sure he'll see the field someday so we can cheer for him.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Welcome to the NFL, rook.

A league where, yes, you will get booed if you drop 3 FG's on a team that will probably be in the running for the #1 pick in next year's draft.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Cut him now, he was another waste of FO draft pick.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

This doesn't sound like him

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

He is a fool to pick this bone so publicly.

That said, I kind of agree with him. While I understand the frustration of those who booed, I felt it was a little over the top to express the frustration in that way.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

you know what? Fans are tired of the lack of intensity, the lack of leadership and complacity with this team. How many more years will we pay 100 dollars a ticket or give up our afternoons to root for a team that continues to fall down. Im not challenging the lack of heart some of our players have, but henson you need to stfu and realize we have to right to voice our displeasure. if anything because our tickets and ten dollar beers and partonage pay your much inflated, unearned, rookie salary

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Being critical of the fans booing is ridiculous. You know we're the people that make sure you're getting paid for standing on the sidelines all game, right? Danny boy just hands you the paycheck, but we're the ones spending the money on season tickets, jerseys, food, etc.

If you can't hack it and put your big boy panties on, don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Robert who???

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Robert just wanted to say,"Your stupid".

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

[quote=SmootSmack;592110]This doesn't sound like him[/quote]

Thinking the same thing.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Perhaps he should talk when he is good enough to step on the field.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

He kind of had a little meltdown as he kept tweeting and insulting the fans until he appologized and said he got hit with something from the stands.

At one point he played the "how much money do you make?" card.

No no not a good idea young man.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

[quote=SmootSmack;592110]This doesn't sound like him[/quote]

Agreed, the level of grammar used is way to advanced for him. He needs to look at T.O's style and go from there

" hey mayra! Wht's ur day like?"

"WTH?!!! R u tweeple watching this game?? This is unbetweevable!! Boise jus scored on a "68 ydr!!""

"Never question sum1s character til they allow their character 2 b questioned. Hope robert & buddy ws worth it!"

T.O. butchering the English language one tweet at a time. With that said I wonder what Emmit's Twitter page sounds like?

A few things though.

1. The fans had a right to boo at the end of the half and the ironic thing is they were basically booing Zorn.

2. However booing after the game when we won is unacceptable given the circumstances. I can understand the fans frustration with the play calling and I might have booed at the half but after the game I'm clapping my hands.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Hey Henson, how about you look at the stinker of a performance of your team before you judge the fans, dim wit.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Thought the fans were pretty spot on with the boos.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Well Robert Henson was nice enough to give me an autograph at redskins training camp, especially when all the other Skins pretty much skipped the crowds. He gave us autographs because we are true redskin fans that are there for the good and the bad times. However, Henson, you shouldn't say anything like this especially when you don't play. And you got to question the play calling we heard today, cause some of the true fans were booing too.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

I wouldn't get too worked up over this. Are we even sure that it's Henson's Twitter account, or that he has one for that matter?

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Henson is from Prime U, which given the Michael Crabtree standoff worries me. Neon Dieon should be banned from mentoring on that situation alone.

It's definitely his twitter account and he really should be embarrassed/ashamed for tweeting something so bogus. Before you start complaining about the fans, get your but up and show the coaches you should be active, then give the fans a reason to cheer.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

"I love this city and the rich tradition, it makes me play and study harder. Because I wanna be apart of the history..."

After he continually insulted a good portion of the fan base, he makes that statement. What he fails to realize is that the fans themselves are a large part of that tradition and history, yet he dismissed us so easily in his little rant. Mr. Henson knows nothing about the history of this franchise, nor anything about its fan base.

I actually tweeted him after I read that. I've supported this team longer than he's been alive and he's going to talk about tradition? Sorry, Robert. I seriously doubt you'll ever amount to much here and if by some miracle you do, your little meltdown is what you'll probably be best known for.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

I guess good thing he doesn't play in Philly. LOL.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

He could learn from Phillip Daniels:

[QUOTE]ThatBoyPhil93 We love our fans. Let us all hang in there and things can only get better. Enjoy the win today and we certainly want to give you more.[/QUOTE]

Absolutely.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Welcome to the NFL puke!

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

We need Henson. He made a mistake.

[quote=diehard;592636]We need Henson. He made a mistake.[/quote]

We must not have needed him to bad, he was inactive today. We need Skins players who acknowledge the passion and heart of the fans.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

a few things:

he's right to call out the fans on this one... i am a fan of a lot of sports teams, and redskins fans are the most fickle, fair-weather, sky-is-falling, x player isn't good enough for this team, i'm smarter than guys who have been in this business for 30 years group of fans i've ever seen... reading forums and talking to people around town, and i am often aghast at the things people say about our team... often times, i am like, "do you even like the redskins?"...

look, this isn't the 80s... i wish it was (and not just because i love a good mustache)... this is our team, now -- let's act like it... does that mean that we shouldn't question, get frustrated, etc? no... but, who really boos a team when they win?!

when we all looked at the schedule, most of us realistically had a loss in new york and a win in this game... and it's turned out like we all thought... relax... sure, i would have liked to blow these guys out... but, we won... this is the nfl... as bad as a team is, any team can beat any team any given week... see this same match-up last season, for example...

on the bright side, the things we were most worried about going into the season have been some of our strengths -- campbell, kelly, ARE and the o-line have played very well... and play-calling, which has been atrocious for the last 10 games or so, is the easiest thing to change out of our weak spots...

henson is going to be a decent player... i saw quite a few of his college games and he's got talent... i don't blame him at all and i couldn't believe they were getting booed at the end... if portis, fletcher or santana had said this, we'd be applauding them for sticking up for the team...

that is all for my second post...

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Well I don't have a tweeter account and don't want one either, but the fans should be the least of the Redskins troubles so far. I have been here from George Allen to George Gibbs 2nd coaching stint so Ive seen the good and the bad. No this team is not our worst team but Zorn has to much talent not to be a better offense. At least all the J. Campbell haters can't blame him. Robert Henson you have been here for a few months as a Redskin player so you don't know the frustration that Redskins fans have been living with for the last few season watching this offense struggle to score. Henson please work hard and help this team when you get your chance to play thats what you should focus on . Redskin fans love this team thats why it is so painful to watch this team take 2 steps forward and 3 steps back.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Dumb mistake on Henson's part. What you say and what you think shouldn't always be the same thing. Plus, the biggest mistake really is when he gets into the whole "I've already made more money than you'll ever make at your 9 to 5 McDonalds job." That was unnecessary.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Yo Bob? Mike Westbrook here, you ever hear of.....death match> Cage fighting?

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

I was at the game and I booed heartily. I'm not cheering 3 FG's against one of the worst defensive teams in the NFL. No one was even remotely excited after the game, it was like a loss.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

I am never a fan of booing your own team, and excoriate Eagles fans for doing so, but I have to believe that the fans were booing Jim Zorn today. And Jim Zorn deserved to get booed.

The one thing I will say in his defense is that going for it twice on 4th down was the correct call. Better to have run and lost than to never have run at all as Gregg Easterbrook likes to say. The actual play call was uninspired, but the decision was ultimately correct. But man, if Donnie Avery had come up with that catch ...... oh brother. At least we did not have an eight man blitz called this time.

Absolutely not. An asshat is an asshat no matter who's doing the asshattery. Henson.Is.An.Asshat. If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then I'm pretty sure it's a duck.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Am I the only one that thinks the home fans were a complete joke yesterday?

The booing at half-time was warranted. But when the game was coming down the wire the crowd barely made a sound until the last drive. That is pathetic. Then these same idiots boo...AFTER A WIN.

Seriously? Um, we are not the Steelers. We are not the Patriots. Has it really come to this? WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH TO TAKE WINS FOR GRANTED.

If you are a person who won't cheer your team when they need it but then will boo after we win, just sell your tickets to a real fan because you are an embarassment. One of the last things that this team could trumpet was fan loyalty and even that is going down the toilet.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

Who in the hell has time to follow what someone twitts or what ever you call that.

Re: Robert Henson not making any friends with the fans...
 

I think both the team and the fans need to move on from this.
