... and coming from a hippie in the 70's... renegade who left the Jets.

Rediscovered himself for two years with the "Hogs" (1982, 1983).

What makes him "bad" John?

Other than a bad owner in running a team... but that goes for 70% of the owners if you're looking at winning percentages.

How right you are there comment # 1.

Tell it like it is John!

Gotta love the honesty (about himself, too).

GREAT PICTURE!!!!

And hell YEAH he's a bad guy John!!

Right again.

I'd love to know what Snyder did to get Riggins so cranked up. In the meantime, grind that ax, Riggo. Grind it.

Snyder is the devil. He doesn't cast a shadow, or a reflection in mirrors. He spends his every waking second dreaming up ways to suck another penny and a little more life out of the 'Skins fanbase. And if you don't like it, he'll sue. I must say I dislike him more than a little bit.

Why all the bitterness, John?

John is a raging alchoholic to this very day....

There's a lot of truth in your statement.

Riggins did take a few shots to the head in his day. I still love me some Snyder bashing.

I wonder if John still has that perm?

No doubt.... Bad guys recognize bad guys.

One of my favorite quotes came from Riggo after his 1-year holdout...

"I'm bored, I'm broke and I'm back!"

"disingenuous"...Did he really use that word. i am thinking he was hammered and was trying to say " this is genious ." These reporters can't get anything right. He was definitely misquoted.

Everybody seems to think Snyder is a bad owner, but what are the facts?? How involved is he during the draft, practices, play calling. People think bad record translates into bad owner, but what exactly is it that makes him a bad owner. I'd love some answers on this one. And not just "he wants to much control"

Give me some cold hard facts

He hired Vinny?

And Vinny still has a job?

I would look at all his free agent signings over the years. Also the ridiculous way he went about hiring a coach last year(hiring assistants first)

He hired Vinny Cerato = His flunkee.

He hired Jim Zorn = His flunkee's flunkee.

He's made the Redskins into a cash cow instead of a football team.

We're the laughing stock of the NFL.

It costs 35$ to park at Fed Ex.

He sues season tickets holders who can't afford or don't want to buy their tickets anymore.

He has security confiscate posters and fliers talking bad about the Redskins at the gate.

He has direct communication with the players, which creates them to not give a damn about the head coach.

Need more?
