HR's Official Boycott of Daniel M. Snyder
HR's Official Boycott of Daniel M. Snyder
Enough is enough! This proud franchise has been turned into the laughing stock of the NFL. Early in his tenure, this fanbase feverishly defended Dan Snyder for his wild spending, head coach carousel and flashy free agent signings. Instead of debating those who criticise Snyder, we now have no other choice but to agree with them.
Daniel M. Snyder has taken this fanbase for granted. The ongoing parking debacle at FedEx...partnering with StubHub to ensure overvalued ticket prices and opposing team fans at FedEx...banning signs at FedEx (including this one)....and providing one of the most sterile and corporate environments in all of sports. (Not to mention that oxymoron of a "Jumbo Tron" that has worse grahics than a Commodore 64)
We ask you to join us in boycotting all of Mr. Snyder's businesses that directly line his pockets. Please add a post showing your support...

- TX, GA, MO, MS, NJ, CA, IL, MD, NY, KY, MA, LA as well as Canada and Mexico.

Snyder was also involved with "Death Race" and "Lions for Lambs." They were both turkeys, so just see another movie lol.
I'm in(I might buy a Samuels authentic if he retires, but I'll go through the NFL store if that happens).

I'm still in and have been for quite awhile. Thanks for the updated list.
Now wouldn't it be nice if there was a way to Get FedEx to rescind the stadium naming rights contract . . . maybe on claims of misrepresentation and false advertising of the product!

Let me add, for those that have tickets, do not buy anything in the stadium.

Apparently I have too and didn't know it! I refuse to watch Valkyrie on the premise that the movie has Tom Cruise in it playing a German with an American accent...lol. I'm German and I found the clips I saw to be a mockery of a hero more than anything. Not surprised Snyder would be a part of something like that.
I'll gladly boycott all of the above. Six Flags here just flat out sucks anyhow. It was further ruined this past year when they were allowed to sell alcohol at a family theme park. |

I've already been refusing to spend any money on Redskins games or merchandise so adding the rest of this isn't a problem.
I'm in.
