Well put.

This is a link to a short (I promise) article from this week's digital New Yorker. It seems clearly written with tonight's Monday Night Football game in mind. A lifelong Redskin fan, who also happens to be a reporter, succinctly assesses the state of the team with his bona fides as fan thrown in for good measure - Super Bowl attendance, RFK looting, etc. My guess is that a lot of us can relate.

Very well put Apathy...What should scare Daniel Snyder the most

Fans going away and losing interest, never cheering for another just choosing to be remain in the background until the right changes occur…Any doubt he can look to the north and see the O’s

Piling on is

not a foul in this situation. We need more and more pressure to make the changes we want. Never give up. HAIL!

Not renewing season tickets

I ran into my bubby that I had not seen in a while this weekend. I asked him about the Skins and the first thing he said was that he is not renewing his tickets. I have yet to hear anyone say that they are renewing. It seems like a strong message.

Almost everyone i know is handing them in...

My one 1 friend is keeping his, but only b/c he just got upgraded this year to lower level and he doesn’t want to lose them.

Funny....

I don’t see a “One Hundred & Sixty Thousand Fan March” over to the ticket window to pick up the newly freed seats. Some “List.”

Stop buying Merchandise

Dont boycott the games as Snyder already has the Season ticket money, the best way to hurt him is to go the the games and make the ticket your only purchase

Take your own food and drinks, get Public Transport so you dont pay for Parking or the Shuttle Bus, DO NOT BUY ANY HATS KEYRINGS SCARVES CLAPPERS HORNS BEANIES JERSEYS or any other parephanalia

Just tell Snyder we are boyoctting everything except watching the games until you remove yourself from Football operations
