Let the first steps toward a lock-out/strike begin!

So much for all of the BS from the media & certain fans that the NFL is in decline & has major issues. Same thing for all of the rednecks in my neck of the woods who always say "I only watch college football". Liars.

It is entirely BS, fan attendance and profits aren't solely exclusive. TV dollars are king.

I think they need to rethink stadium prices for tickets and concessions . They have priced out the common man

Yep & traditional TV ratings no longer tell the whole story or capture all of the viewers in this era where there are numerous ways to view a game.

I always watched games from home until this year. I started dating a woman not from the area who is a Steeler fan. I go to a local sports bar where I can watch every game now.

The price of games …. not only football is more than I want to pay. Hell I was paying $25 a couple of years ago to watch Division II football. Ticket prices are out of control. I would rather pay $100 -$200 for a concert where I know I will be the winner. That is getting hard too.

I used to go to every Caps home game, then 10 game plan in the 80s and 90s and haven't been since they moved into the city. Probably going to a game this year with the GF.

The game is changing. It is much harder to find pro style QBs in college. Someone like Wentz, Mahomes, Wilson that can escape the rush and make off schedule plays is what I would like to see if we are going to draft a QB.

I never go to games. Quite honestly, the experience is terrible. The commute sucks, atleast 2 hours each way, most in bumper to bumper traffic. The prices are through the roof inside as well as outside. Its harder to watch the game, Fedex sucks as a venue. Its easily a $300-500 price tag per person to attend a game. Now when they were at RFK, that was an experience. Mostly, I just refuse to give Dan and of my money based on the product he puts out there.

For whatever it is worth which is not much right now, Walter and Sporting News have us taking Drew Lock and CBS has us taking Greedy Williams.

I know little to nothing about Lock.

Yeah! That is a lot of money for a mediocre to horrible team.

WoW, just what Dan needs, more greedy in this organization! Is there a player named Selfish Bastard also available?

The Caps tickets may be overpriced but at least you know that you are getting a quality product & definitely one where the players give top effort. Not sure if I would spend $10 on a Redskins ticket at this time. Not only does the product suck, but now there are definite signs of selfish players who don't put out max effort. Who wants to watch that crap?

Like I stated previously - I was really looking forward to watching Skins-Titans in Nashville next week (since it is pretty close to where I live now). However I have no desire to watch this now even though tickets will likely be extremely cheap. Keep in mind Skins only come to Nashville once every 8 years. Oh well - maybe the Redskins will be decent 8 years from now.
