Festivus Thread : The Airing Of The Grievances (Stadium Edition)

[Manny555]

I have a grievance against people who don't add anything to the discussion but a stupid snide remark.

The End.

FYI, this thread is a call-out thread by nature. You guys really need to step up your game and enforce your own rules you bunch of highly paid bums. The customer always comes first.

I couldn't have said it better my self.

Mods = Bums!!

Oh were you only kidding?

Well I've got one I discussed before a bit, but not in such a grand thread as a festivus one! All of the "official" threads in the stadium. I don't know what makes it "official" but throwing that word in a thread title seems to give the OP a sense of validity lol.

As I've had to point out to another poster before, much of the recent deluge of Official discussion threads (i.e., positional game day discussions) are actually official in the sense that the mods ask people to start them in an effort to curb **** thread starting by people who are, for example, overreacting to Rex's latest interception. A few of the other Official threads actually offer some very useful information and also help consolidate some of the board clutter. The kind that you're thinking of, both low quality and not backed by any sort of authority represent a tiny minority of all threads.

Oh, also pissed that Beck was ever our starter for one minute, let alone three games.

I think that had a lot more to do with Rex's pneumonia than the coaches wanting to stick with Beck.

i have a grievance with the fact that the redskins have not worn burgandy and gold uniforms since the home game against the 49ers what happened to wearing that for every home game? didnt wear them in the game against dallas, jets OR patriots.

I have a grievance with people who question other people's fanhood for having an opinion other than their's of how to improve the team.

I have a grievance with people calling out the mods when this is a hobby for you and a job for them. And I'm sure that if you could read my user notes, then you'd see that I'm anything but a kiss-ass.

I have a grievance with those who start any kind of Sean Taylor thread on dates other than April 1 and November 26/27.

I have a grievance with those who think that I'm saying in the last sentence that it's okay to make an April Fool's joke out of Sean Taylor's death.

I have a grievance with those who do not acknowledge the effort of the OP or to whomever they are responding.

I have a grievance with those who do not even try to add to a conversation and instead just have a kneejerk, blanket response of disapproval.

I have a grievance with being Jewish and finding out about absurdly cheap tickets on a Christmas Eve game that would usually be no problem (General Tso's for a tailgate? Hell yeah!) except that I married a Catholic and now I am bound to her family for the rest of my life.

I have pictures of myself in Guam on Christmas on the beach in a pair of board shorts and a santa hat. that was like the big thing to do whenever a new person would get to the island around the holidays.

I have been living on Guam for the last 6 months. 3.5 more years to go. And I plan on doing this tomorrow.

Back to the airing of grievances: Why can't we have Coke Zero at the concession stands instead of Diet Coke and someone stole my aluminum pole!

I have a grievance with having to suffer another year of all the discussions about who our QB is going to be.

[Sticksboi05]

By the way, on behalf of ES I made a donation to the Human Fund. Money. For People.

[darrelgreenie]

I have a grievance with posters that don't argue against what they quote or don't use the quote feature at all yet launch into a diatribe against a position that they themselves create.

or in short:

I hate strawmen arguments

[Redskin4ever]

I have grievances with fans who complain when the Redskins spend on all the top free agents that they should slow down and build through the draft. Now that they are bulding through the draft, everyone wants totrade the draft picks to get Luck and sign a bunch of free agents to fill all the other holes. Make up your mind people.

I have a grievance that every year in November I'm already having to wait for next year.
And then having another grievance next year.

I have a grievance against our toadlicking special teams coach Danny Smith.
He epitomizes the phrase "he sucks". He does dumbass things that cost us games and he does them for no other reason than to overthink and thus **** up the game he's doing it in.
The excuses given this clown make me believe he has compromising photos of a whole hell of a lot of people, and that means either he's an amazing superspy, or a whole hell of a lot of you need to be staying out of the turkish bath-houses.

I will not stop airing this grievance until Danny Smith is gone, or Danny Smith is gone.
Whichever comes first.
