Why on earth would people buy his jersey?

Maybe if we, as fans, signed a "petition" promising to buy the jersey of the next first round offensive linemen the Redskins drafted, Snyderatto would listen. I've bought Cooley, Portis, and Sean Taylor Jerseys for myself and my father, but going forward, i'm only buying jerseys of players we draft. Its the only thing - other than not attending games- I think we fans can do that would make a difference.

Mr. Snyder - A football franchise first goal should always be field a good team and win a super bowl, not sell jersey's. If you have a good team, the jersey will sell themselves.
