Fire Stan

All weekend long I was reading anecdotes of just how poorly represented the Nats fans were through the four game sweep by the effing Phillies. By some accounts, Sunday was 80/20. Could you imagine RFK before the 'Skins left seeing a game where the Beagles fans outnumbered us good guys by that margin? No? Right. Because it would have never freaking happened. Can you hear Jack Kent Cooke on a Philly radio saying anything other than outright ridicule for that wretched city and the despicable denizens therein? No, because he had class.

Stan, this isn't like inviting the nice folks from Chattanooga or Charlotte to come to Atlanta. It's Philly you schmuck. If you had any pride, you'd rather see an empty stadium that what went on here this weekend. Call Ted Leonsis and ask him. Or Dan Snyder after the Steelers game this year. They get it. They were pissed and in Ted's case worked to have it fixed.

How can Ted Lerner, a man who once ran the scoreboard at Griffith abide this? Would Bill Collins or Fred Maleck be letting this happen?

Fire Stan. Fire Manny.

If you aren't going to represent DC then get the hell out of DC.

Lerner doesn't care because Philly fans money is green and I think they drink more than D.C. fans which means more coin in Ted's pocket. Man, you should have seen the large number of Philly fans staggering around drunk on Saturday night. Lerner only cares about money. Even Mr. "I like money" Crabs from SpongeBob isn't as greedy as Ted Lerner.
