I will wonder aloud, if Danny has someone who watches these forums, and i imagine he does, and they tell him that alot of "fan unrest is being aired" could the mutiny actually get his attention.
For the most part Danny has to assume those fans on here that are posting and talking skins throughout the year represent the "core fan base", or those who would never change. If, now these fans are, even in the smallest way turning off to the b&g colors that has to prompt some attention.

Maybe not, maybe he doesn't care at all, but of course, then the mutiny will change from avatars to the team. I hope he wakes up before that happens
That's ridiculous. Dan Snyder watches one thing to monitor fans' committment to the team: the money they spend on them. An "avatar mutiny" on a fan website would actually make a difference to Dan Snyder? What planet do you live on?

Look you're either a fan or you're not. If you feel pissed off and saddened by what's going on, then it's clear you still care about the Redskins. But if you're starting to say hey you know what, I might enjoy watching the Saints play because they're fun to watch, that's headed down a bad road.

Besides, Dan Snyder wants to win football games. He sucks at it, but he wants to win. I don't think any boycotts, whether financial or avatar (pfft) will make a difference to him. We hear a lot of stuff about Zorn's status, but for all we know Snyder could be ready to drop the axe on both him and Vinny.

If this changing the avatars thing is meant as some sort of protest against Dan Snyder, then maybe I'm off-base in questioning someone's committment to the team. But I definitely don't think I'm off base in thinking they're idiots (honestly, who in their right mind thinks that's going to make a bit of difference???).
