He told them to not come to Fed Ex to boo dim wits? Who are the dim wits? The losers on the field or the even bigger losers who sit on the sidelines in uniform not good enough to play?
All you guys need now is TO.

Fellow Redskins,
I have served in the US military; I have fought for our constitutional rights, including free speech. But come on: this is our house; the Redskins’ house. Nobody should boo the Redskins in their own house. Nobody. Support your team. Those are our players, and we are their fans. If you’re not happy with the team- stay home, but don’t boo my ‘Skins on their own turf. They get enough of that when they go to NY, Philly or Dallas. Anyone who boos their own team in FedEx field should be ashamed of themselves.

There is an ignorance in many fans no matter what team plays. No apology was necessary. He said the right words to them. Yes, many young people work at McDonald’s because they can’t get hired in a better job. They have to take what they can get and like it. Players are making millions of dollars that thousands of fans will not make in their lifetime and many of them drink. If I was a football player I would close my ears to all boos and consider the source of where it comes from. And most parents don’t know how to raise their kids today. They busy in their own world.

Get used to being booed son and quite possibly having things thrown at you as well. The ‘Skins fans are getting a bit restless to say the least. LMAO!
I’ve lived in the DC area for the past 22 years but was born and raised in the greatest football city on earth, Pittsburgh PA. So it’s needless to say, thank the football gods, that I’m not a ‘Skins fan.
I’ve never seen the negativity toward the ‘Skins as I’ve seen this season. Without Gibbs, Synder has no one to hide behind, this is going to get interesting.

Robert, I sat there at FedEx on Sunday in the hot sun, having paid over $200 a ticket (plus the seat licenses) to watch the most pathetic display of football skill I’ve seen at the professional level in a long time. And you are upset because fans are irate at this team? Who do you think pays your “above McDonald’s FOR NOW” salary?
Devin drops a TD. Sellers drops a TD. Santana fumbles deep in STL territory. Golston gets a stupid holding penalty…ON DEFENSE. DeAngelo plays so far off a receiver that a wheel chair senior citizen could make the catch.
Let’s face it. YOU “As in TEAM” stank! You stank! And I paid a lot of money to see stupid mistakes, low levels of effort and playcalling that was sub-Pop Warner. You really want to go there?
When I do a bad job, I hear about it from my boss, our customers, our employees and even my friends. You want to whine about a few boos?
I did not boo, but don’t think that I’m going to be interested for much longer in shelling out top dollar for a team that could easily help the Lions break their losing streak. And clearly, many others in that stadium felt the same way.
And Robert, if you ever actually improve enough to get on the field, I just might decide to boo someone.

Robert Henson? 6th Rounder? 186th overall? #51 Redskin Roster. #3 Depth Chart MLB.
Game 1 vs NY Giants-Nothing
Game 2 vs St Louis-Nothing AGAIN!
6′ – 242# – 23yrs old.
Bobby Crumpler (Player Development) has got a whole lot of work to do. But then again, when RH was at TCU, he probably never saw a book, let alone a class. You just can’t teach a idiot like him.
He is just a redshirt rookie. If he ever did get in, he would have cleat marks on his back from the QBs, RBs, FBs, WRs, TEs, Tackles, Guards, and probably even his own teammates. Jerk to the 10th power?
Here you see it folks. This may be the last time you hear about this dimwit-misfit.

Shame on you “EXTREEMSKINS” they have deleated all threads talking about this issue.

ExtremeSkins is a shell of its former self, from back in the day when we started that place. It used to be a good place to speak your mind…but not since Snyder bought the site. Then it became as pitiful as the radio stations that Snyder bought.
I have been a member from when that site started, but recently, I think I’ve been there about 5 times in the last 2 years.
The board has become a Pansy Posting Site, where people with opinions get banned. Never been banned myself…but know it happens. Look out for one dude named “Capt. Kaos” if you go there…he’s broken some sort of record for reporting violations (according to one of my friends, and fellow original poster, that’s a mod there now).

Just in case you were wondering what the players really thought of fans.
Fans who idolize players are suckers- these guys hate you, and if they could somehow make the same money without you, they gladly would.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Exactly. Fans are only there to buy their obscenely overpriced trinkets food and drink items, fawn over the players’ exploits and provide piped-in sound (cheering, of course).

I do like it when the Washington Racists and their fans get into it. If I were unlucky and stupid enough to follow that team, I would have booed too. Moreover, if I were playing for the team that just won a game and the idiots in the stands were booing me, I’d want to tell them to shut the hell up too.
I enourage this team and it’s Dallas-esque mob of idiot fans to keep up the bitch fight, it’s great fun for the rest of football fans.

We can only hope the Redskins fans tell him to take his half assed, PR written apology and shove it. We all know how he really feels..
How will he feel when the FANS do stop showing up at games and all the money that goes towards his paycheck and the overpaid fatass in the middle of the defense suddenly isnt there.
Then who will be working at McDonalds??

Way to ruin your career Robert! I sure you are just as intelligent as most other NFL players… which meand that NFL minimum salary will be gone weeks after the season on hookers and blow. You will be bankrupt after playing 3 years in the NFL riding pine. Some people are truly ignorant.

Irony here? If he wasn’t a Redskins backup, he’d be working 9 to 5 at McDonalds, too. Hey kettle, meet pot.

Hey Rookie Boy, it’s not smart to bite the hand that feeds you. Be proud of “making more in one game than most of us fans make in a year”…. for however long it lasts. The team should fine your ass for being rude to the people who pay your salary. Oh, and being drafted 186th overall isn’t exactly much to brag about, either. Your reality check is about to bounce. See you on 10/4. We die-hard fans will be waiting for you….

They have to put these things in those Coors commercials instead of the coaches going off. Because this is waaaaay more priceless than Dennis Green.
“No I didn’t play.” lol.

Oh yeah, a guy who is apparently intelligent enough that he will undoubtedly secure a high paying job once his extremely brief NFL career ends. Good luck Robert!

This really takes balls from a guy that just made the team and has a grand total of “ZERO” career tackles. So it sounds to me like he has yet even earn his paycheck.
So Mr Henson, shut your mouth while grown folks are talking!!!

Welcome to the big leagues Robert!! Unfortunetly fans pay your salary. Without us there is no league. Welcome to the Washington as well! I’m going to bring you up to speed Henson! As a skins fan, we have been sailing the seas of mediocrate for close to twenty years now and we still ROOT for our skins. We bust our ass 9-5, Monday through Friday so we can try and afford to help support your lifestyle! We are out here strugglin with our bills and still find money and time to buy jerseys, watch our skins, go to the stadium, eat in our local restaraunts and bars just for the sake of having a Sunday where we feel an ownership to the team we grew up loving. Your not in Texas anymore. Do your homework! We were 6-2 a year ago and quickly became an 8-8 team with play that looks very similar to yesterday! 9 points WILL result in a loss in over 90% of games we will play this year.
When you lose we lose!! There are thousands of fans that don’t have much going for them in everyday life and look forward to Sundays where we can relax and forget about our everyday struggles for 4 hours a week.
We will let you be you and you let us be fans. This is our job! Don’t forget, those people busting their ass working at McDonalds help pay your salary.
Hopefully this is just a case of a rookie putting his foot in his mouth!
