SmootSmack 10-26-2009, 01:53 PM are you serious, it may not all be guaranteed, but we did sign hayneworth 100 million this offseason
Less than half of $100 million is guaranteed, and at most he'll probably make $50 million...at most.
But you said Snyder pays free agents $100 million. Which isn't true. It's just not. $100 million is a nice round number for everyone to fixate on, much more so than $41 million, which is the actual number that should be looked at. But that doesn't get people as riled up as $100 million I suppose

vinny? is that you?
regardless it was still a nfl record for guaranteed money was it not, still an outrageous amount none the less, and also paid d hall over 22 million guaranteed, you can not honstly say either of those was worth it, considering no one was even interested in d hall
firstdown 10-26-2009, 02:05 PM unfortunatly i had to pay for my season tix the end of feburary, yes less than a month after the superbowl, and since i paid i do go to the games but do not buy anything inside the stadium and have not bought a single officially liscensed redskins anything this year, which has been hard but i am doing what i can, as far as next year and season tickets i am undecided as i would love to retain them but i do not want to support DS
When I had season tickets it was more into the summer before I ever had to send in any money. So I'm going to go out on a limb and say DS is not selling the team any time soon so what would be your deciding factor to renew your tickets. I gave up my season tickets because I decided it was cheaper to by tickets to the few game we can attend each year. I don't do the gear stuff so DS does not not make much money off me.

Maybe it was an NFL record, I honestly don't remember. We probably did pay too much for Hall considering the demand (or lack thereof)...but you still said $100 million

For me it's always been about the tailgating as well as the game, i have a "redskins tailgate" car and so does my buddy and we throw a huge tailgate, and the fact that i was raised on the redskins and i finally have season tix after waiting for 10 years and since everyone is bailing i'm in the 100's with pretty good seats, deep down i do have faith the team will turn around and probaly do it with snyder as the owner since i don't see him going anywhere ever, but hopefully one of these days he will finally get it through his thick ass skull that he has NO idea what he is doing and needs a good gm, i just hope he hasn't already scared them all off already

so did the press release and that's what danny wanted, and 41 was a record at the time, not sure if eli's new contract had more
munny 10-26-2009, 02:38 PM I never said he was doing a good job just pointed out that your statement was incorrect. For your statement above. If you own season tickets your supporting him. As a season ticked holder are you going to the game tonight and if not what have you done with your tickets?
For my part, I am a season ticket holder and I am going to the game tonight. It makes me want to vomit all over myself, and I have absolutely no interest in going and listening to a bunch of ahole eagles fans, but they are still my team and I still go, I don't leave early, and I never, EVER sell my tix to a fan of the opponent team.
Mlm - I have to say that you and I are much alike. I feel just like you do. I hate paying the man, but Sunday's @ a game are better than most anything else. It is easy to be a fan in front of your TV, but when you go and suffer with them every game, every year, the good times mean all that much more. I spend 28 years on the waiting list, so I am not ready to ditch them yet, but it is tough. I buy nothing in the stadium except for a designated driver coke to use as a mixer for the stuff I sneak in(I don't drive though).
CRedskinsRule 10-26-2009, 02:51 PM Joe Gibbs Racing = Three NASCAR Championships. Sorry buddy, we're on the life-boats already. Why don't you come on over? We have some MREs and beer too!
Tramp, I hear ya, and yes Gibbs is not Snyder, or better said, Snyder is no Gibbs. You have to look at the beginning product in order to see the progress. Snyder was not ready to be an NFL owner, and definitely not the Redskins owner, when he bought the team. He has made a billion and one mistakes. I believe most people would make similar, or non-similar but just as bad. Assuming he is learning, he will move Vinny out and get a real GM, that is what I was trying to show in my progressions earlier. People who say he hasn't learned just are taking an easy attack. He has learned, but he isn't where we all want him to be.
I will pass on the MRE's, unless they've improved. Beer, pass the next round.
