With someone who is so involved with the running of football operations, I think his policy of not speaking to the media should change. I think the man owes an explination and at least to acknowledge the displeasure. Until then he is hiding like a coward.

Re: Sell OUR Team Danny Boy - DC Metro Bus Ads

So this thing is on pace to fall 2K-3K short of the goal unless the MLM guys put up the rest on the deadline.

They say the weekend box office revenues of Hollywood movies halve with every week the movie is released. This will probably lose steam and even fall short of the current pace it's on.


It's still pretty cool that you guys got a segment on the news though.

Re: Sell OUR Team Danny Boy - DC Metro Bus Ads

Skinny Tee - yeah at the current pace we are going to fall short, but we are honestly getting more and more site hits every day.

We are also working on having a benefit event at a bar, where the 5-15 cover goes to this. Plus we are in contact with Mervis Diamond and are working on something with them. Also i am not sure if the bye week is going to work for us or against us.

I would say there is a pretty good chance of this happening. But the most important thing we need is more people joining the cause, and not just sitting back watching and complaining. We need more 5 and 10 dollar donations more people spreading the word!

Re: Sell OUR Team Danny Boy - DC Metro Bus Ads

I was just watching the news and saw the interview. I was checking the WP to see if anyone was talking about it. Turns out the founder is here...

I highly doubt that this will make Snyder do anything...it will just piss him off. He is still going to make a shitload of money with the Redskins - winning or losing. The Redskins are a business to Snyder, not a team...

First off the people who think that DS does not loose money when the team is loosing no nothing about Business. Yes, he will still make money but he will not make near as much as he would if he was winning games and going to the playoffs. So to say he does not care about winning because he only cares about making money makes no sense as the two go hand and hand. Just take our local 7/11 which has a section that sells hats and stuff of different teams. Last year when we were winning all the skins stuff was sold out and this year it looks like they have sold nothing skins related. Now X that by all the places selling skins stuff and it is costing DS a bunch of money.

Show me where I said that he doesn't care about winning. Obviously you make more money when you're winning as apposed to losing. My point was that this "Make Snyder sell the team" stuff isn't going to do anything. Snyder doesn't care about us, he has known we don't like him for a long time - nothing new. The only difference is that people are alot louder about it now than ever before. Its a waste of time to put up signs or start websites that try to make him sell the team. The hate should be focused on Vinny - that is something that the fan's voice might actually have an influence in changing.

I'm not sure the whole aim of "sell our team Danny Boy" is to actually get him to sell. At least I didnt take it that way. I think it's just a cry for him to quit f'ing up the franchise. In other words, to get rid of Vinny and start doing things the right way...or else. Although the whole "or else" is kind of a false threat. Anyway, just my opinion.

mImpetert, who started this, clearly has said in earlier posts that no one realistically expects DS to sell the team due to this.

I totally agree. I guess I would just rather see something like "get the hell out of here Vinny" or "Vinny is a joke". If thats the true message behind "sell our team" then why not just say "get rid of Vinny"?
