Totally wives tale. Sunlight is the destroy of beer.

We might be overreacting these days. Were just a shitty team. We need to draft first round defense and rebuild. Period. We have our backup front and center. Lost our top cb for the season with the young guys still learning. Fuck the beer who cares.

Why in the hell is Tyler Polumbus still in a Redskins uniform? After he gave up four sacks to Justin Tuck he should have been replaced because of that alone.....he was overwhelmed by the NYG left end. They need to cut him.....Morgan Moses could not have done a worse job of protection....they should have played Mosworse job.

Beer doesn't expire after 3 months. As others have said the "freshness date" thing is just a marketing ploy. It's more accurate to say it's best to drink it by the 3 month date, that's when it's most fresh is all. It's probably fine for another 3 months after the date before it starts to turn from shitty beer to even shittier beer.

My issue is not the beer, its the PR hit. We continuously are dealing with non-football issues in the National Media with this team. The circus does not cultivate a winner culture.

It's hardly a front page story in the sports world. Nobody is really going to care.

Why toss out perfectly drinkable beer? I could understand if it were a year old but 3-6 months is absolutely fine. It's a best by date, not a hard expiration date.

No , my guess was the beer distributor screwed up or their driver .

In a perfect world, DS would be on the proactive in making sure the stadium experience is top-notch. But in the real world, much like the guy who owns and runs the day-to-day of my job, he's more reactive than proactive. You can bet DS is well aware of the problem now, and has probably already taken steps to ensure this doesn't happen again. But before this report came out, you can bet he probably had a million other things on his to-do list than worry about whether the beer is fresh at his stadium.

I am not one to defend Dan Snyder, but do you really someone from the Stadium concessions management called Dan Snyder to get his ok with selling expired beer?
Whats next, the toilet paper ran out in your stall and Dan Snyder did not change it?
Concessions are run by an outside company like Aramark or Levy Restaurants.
When it comes to the beer sold at arenas or stadiums it is a big contract with Budweiser or Coors Etc. This terribel move was made by a mid level director of food concessions. Not a billionaire team owner.

Lots of QBs have bad games like this. Even more QBs in there 7th NFL game do. I think people forget Cousins is basically a rookie

So you are saying that Cousins' performance was due to inexperience, rather than the fact that he was so inaccurate that he could not hit the broad side of a barn?

IMO inaccuracy like that has nothing to do with NFL experience.

Yes, I am saying that.

If you look at the last 3 INT's came more from staring down WR's which is easily done in college, but cannot be done in PRO's. Something he didn't do vs Philly last week.

The last INT he stared down DJ, but still threw off his back foot because he had a lineman in his face. He threw off his back foot on 2 of the other INT's which were the result of poor ball placement. That is also something that can be corrected.

The Redskins fan base is so hot and cold. Last week, Cousins was the hero of Washington. Now, everyone is ready to throw him under the bus.

I'm not saying Cousins is the next Joe Montana, but he could easily be the next Andy Dalton, and I'll take that any day of the week if we can put the pieces around him to be successful like Cincy has done.

Considering our "franchise" QB will now be coming off 3 surgeries in 5 years. It's not exactly comforting.
