The Washington Redskins threaten to repeat its 2013 three-win season. Thus, they are targets of cheat shot opportunity.
The Redskins may have revealed something about 2015. Everybody missed it.
Black Sports Online pounds them for using email and call-in numbers in its Cyber Monday sales campaign. To read between the lines, BSO questions why the “dysfunctional” Redskins even exist. (Hey, I can call my children ugly, but you….)
This is what comes from three-win seasons. Anything you do, like sending a positive Thanksgiving greeting to fans using your team name, can be twisted as a blunder.
Law or the Courts do not define “Cyber Monday.” It means whatever a merchant says it means.
The Redskins offer is not simply to buy tickets. It is to buy PREMIUM tickets on Cyber Monday…Day.
When last I checked, premium seats priced for $300 per game, or thereabouts. They do not include parking. They require a multi-year financial commitment above the cost of the ticket. You will be either in corporate suites, or in the on Joe Gibbs Plaza level — the plush, indoor, heated, club-like seating area that separates the upper deck from the lower bowl.
Upper deck seating make for an unpleasant viewing experience. Seats there are available for as little as $6.00 through online ticket brokers for Sunday’s Rams-Redskins game.
Redskins Premium seats for 2015 are a tough sell. Online marketing does not lend itself for closing such a deal. Washington undoubtedly had fabulous offers for those seats – that they did not want published by ticket brokers.
By going for the easy kill, BSO missed a more insightful point. The face of this Redskins 2015 campaign is DeSean Jackson instead of you-know-who.
We are sure DJax will be on the roster next season. Robert Griffin III’s place is less certain.

Washington will not be in the playoffs. Did the team revealed something about the future with its Cyber Monday campaign?
This is what passes for winter entertainment around here.
/Sigh/
