This is stupid, not the lawsuits, but the people railing against the Redskins.
If you sign a multiyear contract to buy season tickets, and don't follow up on your end of the contract, you SHOULD get sued. What happens to businesses that can't pay leases. They close. What happens to people who take out loans for cars but stop paying? They lose their car and are eventually sued.
If you want to call out the Redskins, add the Patriots and Bears to it as well. In the article, they also admit having sued people for the exact same reason.
Don't get me wrong.
I'm not against the Redskin fan's. I respect them a whole lot for their loyalty.
- A real-estate agent, Pat Hill, 72, had signed a $5,300-a-year, 10-year contract through 2017 for two seats at FedEx Field, but was unable to make payments in 2008 after the housing market crashed. The Redskins sued Hill in October for the duration of the contract and won a default judgment this year.
Any organization with class would've talked to her on the phone to see what her situation was and upon understanding she couldn't pay just let her out of the deal and resold the tix. Hell, if she can't pay, suing her gets you nothing -- nothing but bad press, which the Redskins now have by the bucket.

What do you guys think about the Giants game this weekend? Do we have a chance? Man, I'd love to see a great 'Skins team come out of the gate HOT and start making a statement. Go 'Skins!
Hmmm.... I wouldn't go that far about the Cowboys; however, if it did happen, I would not be surprised.... I just do not see Roy Williams as a primary #1 WR for them and they really don't have a legite #2. Just my $0.02 worth...
I am also very concerned about the 'Skins' receivers and the passing game in general. Unless their passing game is improved over last year, I do not see them making the playoffs. Clinton Portis can not run the ball 30 times a game with no passing game again this year. Any thoughts? Can the 'Skins shock the Giants this Sunday?
Mr. Opinion, as a life long, from the cradle Skins fan, snyder is on very thin ice with the fans. If this team goes belly up this season, in which it looks to be a possibility, the wrath from the fans is going to come down on this meddling, know it all, pudgy egomaniac owner, the likes he's never seen before, the same goes for his brown nosing side kick Vinny.
As a life long Redskins fan, everyday I am more and more ashamed of Danny Boy Snyder. What a horrible owner! I wish the owner could be fired. He not only sucks running a winning football team as his record shows over the last 10 years that he's owned the team, but he also sucks as a human being! That's all I got.
