I honestly wish Joe hadn't been dicked over like he was. It was wrong, ham-handed and pisses me off to no end. The guy does a commendable job year in and year out and gets nothing for it all the while hacks like DeMasio get SI jobs based on their 'hard hitting' journalism. I am pissed at Snyder and crew for this but I am not pissed that they put extremeskins reps in the press box. If Joe was there I would want him to feel as free as he pleased to cheer or not. The press shouldn't own the press box. Why do they get to decide how one acts in there? It's not theirs. It's provided to them by the team to allow them to cover the team. This arrangement is in everyone's best interest for sure since the team gets coverage (=money) and the journalists sell their product(=money) but in the end the Skins can boot their butts. They cover the team from the press box at the Skins' leisure.
