If Allen makes it to 2020 as Redskins President, I might have to stop watching until he's gone. I can't take another year with dude. I'll always be a fan, but there's no reason he should still be here. It's taken nearly everything to stay on board these last few years, bro. If he's not ****canned, I honestly dont know if I have the strength to continue. I'm nearly tapped out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stadium-Armory Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 I'll keep doing what I've been doing. Commiserate on the message board with you fine folks. Tape the game and watch it on fast forward whenever I have time. Spend no money on merchandise. Do not attend games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

88Comrade2000 Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Here’s a solution for Dan, if he still wants to own the team. He was a minority owner in the failed Milstein group. He can become a minority owner again. Sell 55% of the team to someone else. He can be a minority owner and reap the benefits of a competent owner that restores the Skins to glory.

I get folks who don’t want to or can’t switch to a new team, as passion isn’t transferable. It’s the reason all of us congregate here no matter how we feel about current events. But I cannot grasp what exactly there is to be proud of. Defending stupidity is defending stupidity no matter what. I sometimes wonder if some of you guys even truly believe the stuff you say to defend the guys in charge of this team. Or if it’s just some weird belief that you have to defend your team even when they don’t deserve to be defended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, as someone who grew up in PG County and watched my grandpa shoot his shotgun in the air after defeating the Broncos, and attended the parade with my mom after we beat the Bills. Thats why I can never switch allegiances. But I can also no longer pretend the owner isn’t inept and has taken all the fandom for granted. I don’t even need to see a dominant run of winning to get the juices flowing again. I just want to see a heavy investment into trying to be the best and a structure led by a respectable human being. That’s it. Less offseason talk about yachts and more about investing into everything related to football, both financially and fundamentally.

ClaytoAli Posted December 20, 2019 Share Posted December 20, 2019 Maybe the Skins can move back to Boston and we can get the renamed Pats team. Call them the DC Union or Marshalls. Then kick Dallas out of the NFC East and pick up the Panthers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again, I am in no way, shape, manner or form saying that BA SHOULD or that I’m advocating for him being retained, I’m only saying I don’t give a **** if beelzebub is in the FO to get **** straight. Just get **** straight. That's looking at it from a basic level. Sure, if things went in that direction it would definitely look good and could be all we ask for. But on one hand, Bruce has never done that, be it here or in Tampa or in Oakland so why believe that he can. Then you can look at his history and say that not only has he not done that, but he has actively been the reason behind some of the biggest blunders that split teams up, like the stuff here, the Keyshaun Johnson stuff and Galloway stuff, the releasing of all the SB champ vet players in Tampa, etc. And then what we learn is that these things aren't just random occurrences that happen to every NFL team, you can look into his history further and see that his entire philosophy is set around winning these battles, even if they cost him publicity, fans, players, etc. So I'm a fan and I'm rooting for us to be as good as possible but even I know that what I'm hoping for is at most what Jax had 2 years ago or what Oak had when they signed all those vets. Maybe we could do something with the guys like Kyle Smith who's my ray of hope but that's only but so bright when there's a dark cloud of Bruce hovering over him ready to step in and take credit for it then force them to split up. Lets not forget that we shouldn't be in the situation we're in right now because we had a franchise QB in Kirk. Maybe he wasn't a top 10 QB but he was good enough to get a good offer and be negotiated with, but Bruce did what Bruce does and that's cause chaos.
