I didn't jump ship. The owner of the team raised ticket prices and I wrote some facts and some sarcastic questions that push people to that conclusion to make a point to get people thinking. Next time I'll write some stuff about how the Caps are the best team in the world. Also please tell your dad/brother/uncle Ted that I don't really hate him.Chris Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12928991442952914295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154756678374578057.post-91617788882087950002012-03-06T10:19:53.113-05:002012-03-06T10:19:53.113-05:00I think the dude above me might be Ted...I think the dude above me might be Ted...Dru90https://www.blogger.com/profile/08141246166844829605noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154756678374578057.post-49468301496899448832012-03-06T09:13:44.208-05:002012-03-06T09:13:44.208-05:00This is pathetic...

Honestly if you want to see any moves in the offseason low ticket sales aren't going to help. Would you rather sign like the Redskins do and waste VALUABLE prospects/picks/players. Do you even know what an inside edge is? or what the caps jereseys were before this? Ted is a horrible owner? No, Snyder is a horrible owner. We got spoiled with high seeds and now that our division is extremely competitive we are in a close playoff race. When the Nationals lose a close race to their NL foes is 'Take Back the Park' over for you? Mistakes happen and when they do like Bruce, (your word splicing even sucks), it doesn't mean you have to jumP ship like a coward. I just don't understand how you want to drop a highly talented, but struggling (by which I mean not being 1-3 in the East) that has depth in their farm system. Lastly, the fact that you place no blame on the players when they obviously are a huge part of this is silly. There are absolutely going to moves... Look at how many contracts are up at the end of this season. Stick to basketball.ThreeHoursBackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03547072097981912989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154756678374578057.post-27081047074180404002012-03-06T09:02:02.502-05:002012-03-06T09:02:02.502-05:00Green is a key cog, and there is also a chance tha...Green is a key cog, and there is also a chance that Wideman will be gone also. And Carlson, while he has had a down year, is also up for RFA. It is possible we would lose him also.<br /><br />At least Ted is open and honest with the fans. But there is not but so much he can do for the team during the season. He will be firing the GM at the end of the season though, at which time there will be some changes made, including possibly another new coach.DoNotLaichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582546710051870360noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154756678374578057.post-66613333472738152402012-03-06T08:50:00.327-05:002012-03-06T08:50:00.327-05:00key cogs?

And him writing a blog pretending he is just an upset fan is annoying. He has millions of dollars more than us fans, and he is not one of us. If I don't like something I write a stupid unthoughtout rant here for 20 people to read. If he doesn't like something he can actually do something about it.Chris Fordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12928991442952914295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6154756678374578057.post-52845617605953971652012-03-06T08:30:21.245-05:002012-03-06T08:30:21.245-05:00Ted doesn't make the moves. If you've read...Ted doesn't make the moves. If you've read his blog recently, you know that he is just as pissed about the Caps inconsistent play as the fans. The ticket hike was planned far in advance. While I fully expect people to not renew, this will do nothing about what happens this offseason. GMGM will be gone, a few key cogs will leave for greener pastures, and the Caps will HAVE to make some moves.DoNotLaichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12582546710051870360noreply@blogger.com
