hail2skins Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Don't know if this was posted in any existing threads....the selection of the "hated" companies is pretty random and seems based solely on the cheerleading incident and the assault allegations against Foster and Nicholson. But geez, this team can't seem to find love in any corner! https://247wallst.com/special-report/2019/01/10/americas-most-hated-companies-6/2/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Is Snyder the CEO of the Skins or is it one of the others in the minority ownership group? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike42 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Their reasons for ranking us so high is a complete joke. Just read the other explanation for the other companies on the list. Unsure if the article is serious or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd all be calling him "Millstone." Then again, I know nothing about the guy and find the possibility of being worse off over the last 20 years hard to fathom. I'd gladly take the chance at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just got the sense it was more of a random list of 20 brands who have received bad publicity over the past year. I think last year the NFL as a whole was on the list. My wife told me last night about seeing the list with the Redskins on it and I could only think "when it rains, it pours." So much fan disgruntlement over Bruce, and we also get put on this list!

RVAskins Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 At least were near the top of some list. Usually we're near the bottom. Great work guys. Keep angering everyone and one day we'll be number 1. Woohoo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not to get into topics better suited in the tailgate, but writer political agendas are probably at play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just look at it. That said, are there any other professional sports teams in the big four, that have the amount of vocal fan displeasure as this one does right now? The reasons they provided certainly play into it at some level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I'm not surprised. I may be a fan from a sports perspective but I absolutely despise the Redskins from a business/organizational standpoint. They stand for everything I loathe: corrupt leadership, incompetent management, lack of critical thinking or self awareness, disrespect for its consumers, etc. etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hooper Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Owner who cares more about doing things his way than winning. Toxic culture. A place where once great or once sought-after coaches always leave with their reputations tarnished. Come on, how is this company/organization not loved?

SkinFanInMinn Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 Someone should get fired over this. We should be number one in any list! Don't they know the history of the great Washington Redskins franchise? Don't they know that we were great 25+ years ago? (wow that's depressing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Command The 414 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 The Team name is offensive to the PC people & Diehard loyal fans are starting to hate (if not already there) the Upper FO so this isn’t a surprise to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
