    It's not sung at the Meadowlands, but it is occassionally heard in Philly. If the Foreskins played in the same division as the Steelers, you'd hear it, but maybe not 20K strong.

    Given that city, maybe they should be named the Washington Gridlock

    Steelers fans got their hands on tickets, wow, that makes the Redskins fan base just terrible. I'm surprised they haven't moved due to the apathy.

    The Skins must be struggling to sell season tickets, luxury suites, their local revenues must be awful with such a fair weathered fan base. I imagine local ratings are low as well.

    Agreed... A lot of season-ticket holders will part with their tickets for the right price. I don't see the big deal... If a team like the Packers or Steelers are coming into town and you know you can get a ton of money for them, why not?

    I still think the Redskins easily have a fan base that is top five in the NFL.

    Is any stadium is bigger pain to get to than The Big Jack? For a relatively new stadium the amenties, out side the lux suites, are pedestrian. The parking sucks and expensive with Mass transit not a real option. The traffic is horrendous, the stadium workers have all charm of PG County Detention Center guards. Tail gating is piss poor to non existent.

    A 1:00 Sunday game is survivable but only because its an all day event, just to drive and park. Night games are cruel and unusual punishment

    Move them to Jacksonville, call them the Seminoles. Everyone wins.
