Hey! I resent that!

Is he talking about us? :D

George Solomon article from the Post:

Stand in awe of the fans filling most of the 90,000 seats at FedEx Field for every game, despite tough traffic in and out of the stadium and the chutzpah of some fans who believe it's their right to turn parking lots into their own boozy backyard barbeques. Thrilled at finally taking the Metro's Blue Line to the stadium today, unless the louts set up their tents, tables and grills on the tracks at the Morgan Boulevard station. Love the Redskins' helmets and flag, but not the team's pregame fireworks, loud rock music and ignoring the feats of opposing players (and there have been many) on the P.A. system and replay screen.

Rest of article which is actually pretty good to the Skins:

What a jerk. The tailgating this year was the highlight of most the games I went to, unfortunatly.

[skins111111]

he couldn't have ment that in a bad way................we're the greatest fans of the greatest team in the NFL.............musta been a compliment

[Jimreaper007]

What do you expect from King Solomon....He is too rich and high-brow to ever mingle with the likes of "regular human beings"

[tbfoster1]

hes probably just jealous he had no friends to experience a fed ex tailgate with

[Jimreaper007]

I would pay no attention to Solomon...

Then why did you read this and take exception to it?

You got that right.

What else were we to do but get drunk in the parking lots before the games.

Between paying $7 for a beer inside and the way the team have been playing the last few years, what do you expect?

I love tailgating at FedEx Field. :Partyred:

This guy is a jerk, who has a "holier than thou" look on the world...

He probably thumbs his nose at us while driving to his covered parking spot inside Fex Ex with the rest of the "elite press".

Tailgating is part of the game. And as 44 said...it was (unfortunately) the best part of the season...

I guess that's what happens when you let an out of town priss write sports articles

A. Tailgating is so much a part of American football culture and NFL traditions that responding to some nobody who dredges up the term "chutzpah" and trys to make the relatively mild Skins' version of tailgating sound like something the local PC police should react to is simply too pitiful to begin to rip to shreads

B. If you want your team's, as in the VISITING team's players idolized on the the WASHINGTON REDSKINS PA and Big Screen ("replay" ... LMFAO) systems ... go their FREAKING home games you PUTZ ... chutzpah that you flamer!

C. I like the fireworks! Maybe he has trouble with loud noises ... which would explain alot.

D. If you're distracted by the loud music ... perhaps you should sit your whinny butt down in a seat at the Kennedy Center instead of an NFL game ... poor lil fella

The Post must be hurting for things to print ... this is just pitiful

Thats true. :Peace: It is where I discovered the beauty of Red Bull and Vodka, which of course, will lead to my demise.
