Thirtyfive2seven Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 If the team was somehow ever moved from the DC area, I think it'd be pretty tough to stay a fan. I honestly don't know if I could be a fan if the team moved. That's the ONLY way I'd stop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailGreen28 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Stop being a Skins fan? Never. But I was considering putting my fandom "on hiatus" if they picked up Vick. As in, "see you guys when you're respectable again", or "Redskin fan in mourning, not active" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkfan63 Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 My love of this team has already dwindled since Synder bought the team. I still watch the games, but have given up my season tix. I also don't live and die with the team the way I used to. The pride of being a Skins fan has diminished under Synder's ownership. Very sad what has happened to this once proud organization.

FlaSk1nsfan Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 They have lost a lot from me over the years. I have dumped my season tickets and dont even watch all the games on tv anymore. When I first moved to FLA I would fly up for all the games. Then I started giving away my tickets or selling them for face to friends. Then I just dumped them and they have been so ****ty I dont even make too much of an effort to find a bar to watch anymore. The whole sueing the fans has just about done me in on this team. Ill always love them and want them to win but with Danny owning them and turning it into such an ugly business and not about winning and tradition but all about the money and nothing else.... I just have had about enough of it. May slowly start liking the Fins down here in Maimi. Cant believe they would sue their fans in these times when they supposedly have a 10 yr waiting list and make the most money of all NFL teams already.

Tennessee Ed Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Oops - maybe I hate Snyder so much that my brain is creating a revisionist view of Redskins history. It's all good. I tend to drink heavily during the non - playoff seasons. I have been drinking for a decade.:chug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WVUforREDSKINS Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Dan Synder is arrogant and self centered My mom, who grew up in San Fran rooted for the 49ers, moved to DC in the late 70's by 1985 she was a die hard skins fan. Loved RFK and loved Joe Gibbs. She told me today that she finds it harder and harder to like the skins ever since Snyder took over. I was pissed off when I read that story. I mean...what is doing to these fans is just evil. Aren't there thousands of people just hoping they get a call? So just give them a call! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4skins23 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I think its pitiful some of you post that you would cease to be a fan if they moved out of town. That tells me right there that you don't like the team. Its just the home team so you root for them because you don't want to be an outcast. With that kind of thinking all the cities that don't have a "home team" should just not watch football at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rypien1191 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 Death? I suppose if the team/ownership turned into the Lions, and stopped TRYING to win... I would never root for another team, but if we had an owner who didn't care about winning.. I wouldn't follow as much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walker77 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 I think a more appropriate question would be "What would it take to stop giving this team your hard earned money?" I think all of us here could never be anything else but a skins fan. But I can certainly stop giving them money. Who needs to go to these over priced games for a perinnial 8-8 team and make the owner more money? Who needs to support an owner who seems to only respect the fans wallet most of all? As much as I love my team, but cant support them financially. Fans should wise. The owner isnt going anywhere but things will only change when they start losing money. Would I feel this way if we were going to championship games??? NOOO!!! When you are a winner you can get away with a lot more. But we are not winners. Havent been since our last superbowl. Hit the man where it hurts. HTTR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4skins23 Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 You have a point about the money, but just be happy its not the Cowgirls team.
