There was nothing snarky about it. I bet if it was your 72 year old family member who has supported the team for 50 years, you would have a different viewpoint. You don't care about these Redskins fans and how they have been treated by the team and no one said that you have to. Caution me all you want. I could care less about what concerns you.

When they sue someone for the face value of the tickets associated with a contract along with the legal fees associated with the judgement and then resell those same tickets to a ticket broker or someone else, that is raping your fanbase in my book. People can call it maximizing profits or whatever you want but I think it is wrong to treat people that way. Especially when you lie to everyone who will listen and say the wait list is 160,000. Now, if they come out and say that people defaulting on obligations is negatively impacting the business, then I would cut them some slack. But they have never said that. They consistently boast that there are thousands upon thousands of people waiting to buy season tickets. If that was the case, why even go through the trouble to sue someone who has hit hard times, just call the next person on the list.

Here is another example of Snyder blatently lying to us. He came on 980 and said that the new tailgaiting rules would actually make things better for the fans. I spoke to my brother in law who went to the Pats game and confirmed that Snyder's spin was just untrue. If you want to grill out and have a typical tailgate, you better get there very early and get ready to park in the furthest row in your section. This change was to maximize parking revenue, not enhance anything for the fans.

I am just tired of hearing them blatently lie to their fans.
