2 things that are really bothering me

For what it's worth, I've heard that it's not that Gibbs was not aware they were thinking of doing it. He just never actually gave the final ok for it. But, at the same time, he does give Williams total autonomy on defense.

I don't believe for one minute any of the players or coaches worth a damn have quit. The fans? Sure plenty of them have, but I lost what little respect I had left for most Redskins fans today during the moment of silence. So who cares about them

Don't we have basically this exact same thread elsewhere?

Don't lump everyone at the stadium as ignorant during the moment of silence. I wasn't there, but it sounded on TV as if a single voice shouted "we love you Sean" and there was a brief cheer. It certainly didn't sound like the entire stadium ignored the request for silence.

Yeah, we weren'y there either but my wife said she heard the exact same thing on TV. Hopefully the majority displayed respect during the moment of silence.

And you know what's sad? The COWBOYS moment of silence was ABSOLUTELY quiet. Not a single person in that stadium spoke.

In this day and age of big money football it is hard for the true fan to be there. The cost big time to take a family to a baseball game much less a NFL game. It's just not in the cards for most. That being said i think you now get a lot of uninformed people that just wanted to be seen or be at big time events. Sorry but that is the way it is with scalpers and corporations buying up most the tickets. These for the most part are not true fans.
