Funeral for the Redskins? (Mock Funeral Program)
Washington Times ^ | October 26, 2009 | David Elfin

Posted on 10/29/2009 12:48:49 PM PDT by C19fan

One disgruntled Redskins fan made up a memorial service pamphlet for the team.

The cover features the Native American logo crying and reads:

Memorial Service

Washington Deadskins, Sunrise: 1932 -- Sunset: 2009.

Some Skin fan at my job had a print out of the "funeral program" for the Redskins. I got a nice laugh out of it.

I think is it somewhat bad timing, and poor taste, considering a former redskin’s cheerleader died this week.

It appears the mock program was created before the cheerleader died since this Wash Times article was published on October 26, the same day as the death.

Read it this afternoon on the door of a fellow Redskin fan. Unfortunately, I can’t find anything wrong with it -its spot on. We both comiserated on the Cooke family losing control of the team. Snyder has been a fool of an owner. Hail to the Redskins.

I couldn't agree more. And didn't a USA president get assassinated on Friday, November 22, 1963 - it's disrespectful, and ought to be stopped. There should be a law against it.

I am the biggest fan of having a good time and I do have a wrapped since of humor, but the timing was bad.

Why would any conservative give a fig about the NFL?

Was she the one that took the swine flu shot and ended up not being able to walk foreward or talk normally?

Former 'skins member here had it right: Deadskins.

An unnamed friend of mine who works for the Skins got a regular busting by me during training camp and preseason.

After a while he sent me back a note telling me I was all wrong and that he has seem them doing great things in training camp.

Every week I sent him a note reminding him that I was right about just how awful they are.

He hasn't responded to a single one yet.

Embarassment?

Ducking...
