We have the power?
As one of the many many many people who would be absolutely disgusted if we shipped off a bunch of draft picks, left all our holes open, and moved up and took Sanchez, I think there's one thing we can do.
It might not have any effect, but if thousands of us disgruntled fans do it, maybe it will. Write massive quantities of complaint letters to the Redskins FO. I'm prepared to make the template and send it out to everyone if needed. Who is with me!? |

Re: We have the power?
How about starting another meaningless petition?
And what is this going to accomplish exactly?? |

Re: We have the power?
Actually I think the most effective approach would be protest...local fans taking their signs to Redskins Park and picketing would be awesome

Re: We have the power?
Here's a way to get the Skins attention, stop watching the games, stop buying the swag, stop paying attention to the team altogether. When its hits them in the wallet they will notice and react but as long as the fans keep lapping up what they are selling like hungry dogs the FO couldnt care less what the fans think.

Re: We have the power?
I'd be disappointed with a front office that just did what the fans wanted. Fans are emotional, irrational, often stupid. It's the job of the front office to do what's best for the team even if it's unpopular or not what the fans want. The best front offices don't spend their time preoccupied with what the fans want. Case in point, the Eagles and Brian Dawkins.

Yes the fans can be very irrational and stupid, but is that any different from how Snyder runs the team?

I think the fans' influence on Fassel has been blown out of proportion
