I would love to see Snyder directly respond to what the fans have been saying. Not some COO henceman and Vinny constantly deny reality and blaming everything on the Washington Post lol....

lets say for the sake of argument you reach your monetary goal. now you work a deal to have your voices heard, via the buses. the media grabs it, and runs with it. now what? Snyder is definitely not going to change because of the ads. and you just wasted a bunch of money.

if you ask me it'll fizzle out by the time the money is ponied up

the media has already grabbed the story... it's going to likely take several more weeks to get the money and by then.. whatever

Why couldnt they just say "hire a Gm" or "Fire Vinny"

Also why do they insist to call him Danny Boy. You think by saving $8,250 and calling him Danny Boy that he's going to take you seriously?

Well I know that's in jest. Some people I think actually believe Snyder is the equivalent of Hitler

Yeah Zuckerman just helped the sale go through then he sold his share to Drasner and Snyder in 2000. In 2003, Drasner was gone

does anyone know if the browns fans went thru with their show of dis-satisfaction?

That's not scheduled until Nov. 16 for their Monday Night game against the Ravens

our point exactly, every one takes it way to lieterally, like i have said 100 f-ing times snyder is not goin to sell the team but he has emarassed us has he not, we lets embarass him, and i think so far we have because some of the media blocks he has installed at his fortress fedex field AKA jacke kent cooke stadium so screw snyder and his henches i know they will probaly come for my tix after i put my name out there but i don't care, he can take my tickets but he can never take my fan hood, because if he does take MY tickets thats over $13,000.00 and thats far from an exageration i have 11 tix to each game and green parkin, i'm as die hard as they come that's why it's so hard to give up season tix, after waiting 9 years thats what i'm willing to do since i love the team that much

Since you have 13K annually for tickets you don't care about, why don't you put down the residual amount if you guys come up short.

From the looks of it, it should only be a K or two. Do you love this cause that much?

I think that the mailing in the symbolic fan card thing was pretty clever and affordable.

i would never mail in my fan card because i am a fan for life just don't care for the way it's being run right now

and skinny t, i don't have 13k annually but i have a lot of friends who buy season tix off me and i then sell the rest to other friends and fans but never over face value and never on stub hub

A former player indicated recently that Snyder treated players one way when they won and another way when they lost. Can you talk a little bit about what it was like to play under Snyder?
Dan is great. He is sometimes too passionate about this team, but he treated the players with respect, and how can you not like a guy who pays you to play football? He gets a bad rap, and maybe he can do some things different in terms of putting this team together, but he is a good man.

would you expect bowen to say otherwise

SmootSmack · 11-04-2009, 06:40 PM

Well this really should just be discussed in the Bowen thread. But anyway, yeah it was maybe a bit odd for him to say why wouldn't you like a guy who pays you. But Bowen genuinely does like Snyder as a person and how he treated the players not only as players/employees but as people
