cause i think he was behind the eightball from birth...all signs indicate that he had great parents...unless he was trying to be a championship winning professional athlete

Shefter tweeted that the Skins penalty for circumventing the cap could void the Griffin trade.  Definitely think that is BS.

taterskins remove 4,000 seats from FedEx Field

taterskins home attendance has declined with the team's winning percentage in recent years, and as demand for tickets decreases, the taterskins are also decreasing the supply of seats.

The Washington Post reports that the taterskins are again reducing the size of FedEx Field, with the removal of 4,000 additional seats.

The team says the reduction of seats will make room for an upper level "party deck" and the renovation of the fifth-floor suite areas, which will give fans a better experience at the stadium.

But there will be fewer fans experiencing taterskins home games. In 2010 the capacity at FedEx Field was 91,000, in 2011 it was 83,000 and this season it will be 79,000.

There was a time when there was virtually no limit to the number of tickets the taterskins could sell, but that time is in the past. The taterskins have yet to make the playoffs in the four seasons since Joe Gibbs left, and they missed the playoffs in 10 of the 11 seasons since between the two Gibbs coaching tenures. That kind of losing frustrates even the most enthusiastic of fan bases.

I'm guessing this move is (at least partially) being made to try and prevent home game blackouts.
