Bravo to the Jim Devlin, the fan in the Redskins Jersey at Eagles Camp

August 12, 2010

Granted he is pretty much being a jerk and breaking all the rules of etiquette and decorum, but at least a fan made it known how he felt about what happened to the best quarterback in Eagles history. (Take a look at the AP story.)

Now, I wouldn’t be rocking Drew Brees Saints threads at Chargers camp, but what other weapon does a fan have when it comes to making a statement that owners and General Managers actually have to listen to? It was cool that you took off the jersey when you were asked and I saw a shot of the security guard…Predator Arnold would struggle to argue with that dude. I don’t really care if Andy Reid wanted Jim to take off the jersey…it is his practice, but it took balls to wear that shirt to in the first place.

Good job to that fan. You are everything that we love here at thatfan.com and we would love to talk to you, so feel free to Send Dr. Venkman an e-mail at any time.
