Why are you going to have a stroke over an entertainment franchise? Drama is the norm for this franchise. It is a real life soap opera for men and boys. The quicker you realize this you will see that it isn't all that important.

Ditto for everyone Skins, just don't have a stroke over something you don't have control over. If Kirk did end up ditching us after this season then we wil have do deal with it, but in the end life goes on. You always see the small minority of fans go off like a bomb when stuff like this occurs. Not worth it, plus there are many other distractions available. I wouldn't take too much out of those articles/tweets. Modern news is about creating news, not just reporting it. We have 20 days to go til the deadline, still plenty of time to get a deal done. Just hope Kirk gives the Skins a break in restructuring any deal so they can resign guys next year.

And for all this, there's things called figures of speech. Not quite meant to be taken literally, but when the crushing boredom of the offseason is upon us I guess there's nothing better to do.

If you don't really care about the Redskins, to the point that you need you put down others that do, on a forum dedicated to discussing the Redskins, then...

Just telling the guy to chill/relax. You have one article saying Kirk wants out and another that is just a bunch of tweets. Modern news outlets create news just as much as they report it. Nothing to base having a stroke over. And what in my post was not the truth? Football is not just football, but entertainment, in fact it is mostly entertainment anymore with all the hype. You can still be a fan and have an understanding of reality. As a preteen I loved pro wrestling and certain wrestlers, even though I knew it was fake, but it made for great entertainment. Same goes for the NFL. The NFL isn't fake, but it is just a game, nothing more nothing less. You watch it to be entertained or distracted. Skins winning or losing won't affect your bottom line or your life, outside of what $ you paid for the tickets, concessions, etc, unless you are a big time gambler. That is my point. Just wait and see what happens with Kirk and the FO and let it ride. You have no say in the matter and it personally doesn't affect you in any way.

x2 again.

I noticed you are 47 I am 43, when I was say 12 to maybe 30, I was hardcore Skins. If they lost it ruined my whole day etc...then you get married have kids get more responsibility at work etc....and well KC getting or not getting his billions is hardly going to give me a stroke.

Mooby is still a young grasshopper as well. =)

Yeah as really it seems that the owner is playing mind games with the fans and Kirk.

I just think KC wants to wait a year and see how things are going to play out in LA and SF. One thing to remember is 2018 will be a stronger Qb class. He may not have anybody willing to take on his contract demands.

Yes, a Pro Bowl, stand-in-the-pocket modern prototype qb that has had two consecutive baller seasons might not find a worthy suitor that doesn't have to give up anything besides a big money deal that will easily fit under the cavernous salary cap thanks to astronomical tv deals that have made the NFL billions (with a B). Seems plausible.
