Nothing ever stays the same...Things change and are gone forever... We just have to look at the positive points... a lot more fans can attend now... and while it was without class... You must understand... It costs hundreds of dollars to attend even 1 game..And that’s with just tickets and parking... And they are often long exhausting days... So when people go to the stadium and see the Skin's LOSE games that we know they SHOULD WIN... that’s frustrating... and so they boo.... But they are fans because they pay lots of money and invest lots of time attending those games.... Having to make the LONG drive home after a senseless loss isn't too much fun... We have a long proud tradition of winning as Redskins Fan's and have waited to win.... To keep losing year after year ..when we have so much talent wears on you... As much emotion as you expend watching the Redskin's lose while you are sitting at home.... Magnify that by 100 in the Stadium ...so add some antifreeze and frustration and people will boo.... But make no mistake we have great and proud fans.... BTW I wasn’t there yesterday.... I was upset with Gibb's at 1st..but now I am just proud of the way the team played considering... I don’t see the Gibbs story ending like this... he is too proud... Look for this team to redeem their coach...

Not only do you get yelled at ("down in front") but you will get scolded by the ushers and/or removed if you do not stop. Its truly absurd- you see people getting talked to/tossed out every game...

The second half of section 138 doesn't stand up at all...

From what I was told, two were wearing Cooley jerseys, one a Moss.

Just interested. You don't care for most Redskins fans for what reason? Which is what you are correct?

I think you are way off base with the statement on quaility of our fan base. For what reason are we closer to the worst?

How many games do you attend every year at FedEx?

I'm at every home game and travel over 3 hours to get to the stadium. I was at the game yesterday, other than a couple knuckle heads that hollared we'll miss ya ST or something close to that, (the rest of the fans were probably to busy wipping tears to speak) maybe 2 to 3 people outta 90K. Those aren't bad odds.

Being at every game I can tell you first hand at least from where I sit in the LL its first class die hards folks that eat, drink, sleep and live REDSKIN FOOTBALL!

Well I pointed out a few posts down what I don't like with the fans. Again, I'm not talking about all fans. And I believe most, most, people on this site are good, true fans. Doesn't mean kool-aid sippers or anything like that.

I don't go to many games anymore, live too far away. And I have more fun at Wizards games anyway. But that's great that you go to all the games good for you. I will say though, that I think there are plenty of great fans that don't/can't go to games. And there are plenty of lousy fans that do.

Re: 2 things that are really bothering me

I just watched the moment of silence for Taylor before the Pats vs. Ravens game. Anyone else catch that "The Redskins Suck" scream?
