i HATE football

but i thought this was one hell of an interesting story. it's sad and it's ugly. seems like i have to especially have to watch what i say - otherwise, i'll get the shite sued out of me

if i ever decide to like football, they'll NEVER be my favorite team (right after the cowboys and pats. I HATE THEM too)

For Redskins Fans, Hard Luck Runs Into Team's Hard Line

It would be hard to find a more loyal fan of the Washington Redskins than real estate agent Pat Hill. She's had season tickets since the early 1960s, when her daughter danced in the halftime shows at the old D.C. Stadium, before it was renamed in memory of Robert F. Kennedy.

In the hallway of her modest home south of Alexandria, the 72-year-old grandmother points out the burgundy-and-gold Redskins hook rug she made. In her bedroom, she shows off the pennants from two Redskins Super Bowl games she attended, and she opens a music box on her dresser that plays "Hail to the Redskins."

Now, Hill says, her beloved Redskins are forcing her into bankruptcy.

Last year, Hill's real estate sales were hit hard by the housing market crash, and she told the team that she could no longer afford her $5,300-a-year contract for two loge seats behind the end zone. Hill said she asked the Redskins to waive her contract for a year or two.
