4) giving away our draft picks; especially first and second rounders
5) wanting to have the final say in everything; being a jerry jones instead of an art Rooney, Robert kraft, jim irsay, Steve bishatti, jim mara, jefferie lurie, budd Adams, ...you see what I mean
Giving away first rounders isn't something new for the Redskins organization. From 1983 to 1992 the Redskins had three #1's, eleven #2's and eight #3's. Actually, he's been more likely to give away a third than a 1 or 2. Since 1999 we've had nine #1's, eight #2's and six #3's.

Facts are great, but not as great as wins in the playoffs.

Neither are cookies. Not sure how the fact that we don't throw away our no. 1 picks correlates with us not winning playoff games.???

I disagree Giantone. In this instance, I think looking at facts, instead of unfounded beliefs, would help one eliminate the wrong reasons for not doing well in the playoffs, and help one come to a realistic view of what the problem really is, and hopefully, what the answer to said problem is. We do not trade first round picks on a regular basis. The reason for not doing well in the playoffs is obviously not because of trading first round picks. Why cloud the issue with BS? I've never been on a Giants board before but I suspect that some of your fellow fans post opinions based on nothing factual, and I may be wrong, but I have a feeling you don't hesitate to correct them.

Right on the money. People want to criticize Snyder or the Redskins, that's perfectly fine. But when they use bogus claims to "support" their point then it makes everything they say pretty much worthless.

Facts are important when someone is making a bogus claim and someone brings them up to disprove this claim. I don't think anyone was talking about winning or losing here, just bringing up a fact that Snyder was not the only owner to give away picks.
