Rogers Frustrated By Some Redskins Fans

[warriorzpath]

blah, blah, blah ... one game at time...

Talking about assumptions - look at that last quote and try to explain that away. I'm not assuming anything, rogers is telling me everything that I needed to hear from an ungrateful punk.

What last quote are you talking about?

Wonder what Giants fans are saying about this

They probably aren't overreacting half as bad as the Skins fans in here are.

This thread is full of fail. Props to those of you who made sense in here with good posts about what Carlos actually contributes to the team, and make no mistake he does contribute, because if he didn't contribute he wouldn't be our #1 corner and his ass would've been gone faster than Devin Thomas'.

I'm not gonna bother coming back to this thread simply because it's been overrun with Skins fans demanding Rogers' head for his lack of playmaking skills, and those of us assuming that Rogers doesn't care about his multi-million dollar job at all, and is consumed with how much hate he has for fans simply because idiots can't support the team at games.

He just needs to realize this is a problem that will never end until the team consistently wins games, because that is the only time fans might not boo (check with Philly to see fans that boo even when the team wins games consistently).

One thing I've never understood was the emotional disdain that some fans have for athletes. I personally don't hate any athlete, I realize at the end of the day it's just a game. So why would I waste any of my energy directing it towards someone I don't personally know.

I mean, I have guys I cheer against, but I don't confuse that with hate. So it's mortifying as to why fans invest so much emotionally into these athletes.

Lastly, Rogers should realize that the fans have every right to boo. Start catching the myriad of balls that bounces off his hands, and I'll guarantee you he'll hear cheers.

I don't know how I feel about booing. I was a student-athlete in high school and I never booed when the boys teams played, they never booed when we played and.. I don't know. I just can't imagine booing the home team. If I don't like how the team is playing, I bitch. I come here and bitch to other fans, I bitch to the people I'm sitting with... But I just can't imagine booing.

I think that's just about as unclassy as it gets. Its not like the players want to suck and lose...

Its a bad title. I dont know what you all have I read, I read they felt like the crowd was silent, and waiting to get loud and rock the stadium. Carlos said he heard some negative stuff O.K. Thats all. There is nothing to it and thats it.

It sounds like Insane Boost has brained washed some folks here. That dude aint even a fan, he is Black Ops for Dallas.

In fairness to Insane, he didn't come up with the title

Do you honestly believe people want to boo their favorite team? People pay good money to see these guys get pushed around the field year in and year out. When does it end? We've put up with lackluster play for almost two decades and he's upset that fans are booing? Give me a break.

That is why I am mad at Snyder, not the players. I don't question any of the players effort. We are a bottom half talent team.

Btw I hope no one actually thinks that we are a better team without Carlos, no matter how you took what he said.

Yeah, actually I do. I've offered buddies of mine tix with me to Redskins games before, and do you know what they said? "Good, it'll give me the opportunity to let 'em know how much they suck." And that's coming from the mouth of a "fan." Needless to say I'm not gonna be offering him any tix in the future, and I don't even talk to him anymore. So you've gotta be pretty stupid to believe fans logically debate the finer points of booing their favorite team. Do you honestly believe people sit there and say something along the lines of, "Gee, I don't really want to be doing this, but booooooooooooooo! you suck! your bums! get off the field rogers, you couldn't catch a cold if a sick person sneezed in your face!"

You don't think I haven't spent money to watch the Redskins play, or spent money buying items that identify myself as a Redskins fan? They're not forcing you to spend money, you can stay home and watch a game for free, and the food and drink you'll eat will be cheaper than attending a game too!

I wonder if this is at the root of most of the booing at times, booing the organization and how frustrating it's been-it just comes out when we have yet another 3 and out or blown assignment or dropped INT. These things happen to every team in the league but we're so hungry for a consistent winner and our expectations are so high, it's easy to blast a player for a bad play because you're fed up with who he represents.

That being said, so I can remain consistent, Los-stop dropping INT and I'll stop calling you a bum. Resume banter.

Got no problem with fans booing...especially if you dont see the effort on the field. Now to curse, be drunk and crazy-acting pissed off at the stadium(or anytime in public for that matter) of course not. Booing is actually tradition, mostly intended for the other team...But look at the economics of just going to a game and especially rabid fans with season tickets, its not cheap at all. Now im not sitting here like that idoit Chad on the radio and say Im owed something..but it you see a franchise not trying win, constant bad decisions from the front office, or a general lack of effort from the team on the field...boo loud. But there really should be none of that this season, we are a 180 from last season. To bring up last season, if I attended a game I woulda been boooing all game, we were at rock bottom as a franchise for the first time ever.

That probably has something to do with the fact that the Skins are not enjoying half as much the success the Giants fans do. Situations like this seem to disappear when your winning. It's frustration on both sides (fans and players)
