DC Radio Host: 'I Want Redskins Reparations': "The Washington Redskins owe us. The Washington Redskins owe me, and they owe everybody else that has ever taken crap from Cowboys fans, that has ever not jumped on the Patriots' or the Steelers' bandwagon, that has remained loyal in this melting pot, you owe us money. ... You owe us money, and you owe us an apology, because you went out there, and you half-assed it. ... You're a joke, from the top down. Every single person on that team deserves to lose their job today. Every. Single. Person. How dare you not turn in your keys, how dare you not go out to Ashburn and say here's my key card. ... You kill me. You make me sick." -- DC sports radio host Chad Dukes in an epic 12 minute rant

Or Toronto, he'd melt down on football, basketball, and hockey.

That was epic.

I loved it too. The parts where he dragged his dad and granddad into it were persuasive. If you blow thousands of dollars on your favorite team, you get to have an emotional breakdown when they're as bad as Washington is today.

They wouldn't be nearly as bad if they changed their name to something not so fucking racist.

This reminds me of a rant on a michigan station a few years ago aimed at Mich State football. I will ty to find and post it. It was HILARIOUS.

There is a video of the 100 million dollar Haynesworth completely giving up on a play in the game with the Eagles. You have to feel sorry for season ticket holders who paid thousands of dollars to watch this mess.

"R******s Reparations?"

Oh, that phrase is all kinds of awful.

Not that I don't feel for him - or fans of any team that is as painful to watch. I wonder if he would have chose the word "reparations" if the team name hadn't been "R******s."

Sure, Monday night was a debacle. Humiliating, embarrassing, all that good stuff. How many Super Bowls have the Redskins won? Get in line behind the Browns, Lions, and Bengals fans Chad. You know precisely jack and shit about suffering for your team.

The Lions do have the Redskins to thank for one of their victories this season. Good thing their multi-million dollar quarterback didn't have the cardiovascular endurance, knowledge of the two minute offense, whatever it was that put Rex Grossman on the field for the last drive.

Mr. Shanahan us Lions fans thank you.

This has to be the one you mean. Mike Valenti at his best/worst...

I'M A TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS AND BUFFALO BILLS FAN!

My rage has no boundaries. If the Blue Jays hadn't won in 92/93, who knows how things would be for me now...

I'm sure a lot of us have felt this way a time or 2 (and just didn't vocalize it publicly). I've certainly had similar rants in front of the TV. I can't imagine what it's like to be a Yankees fan.......not having to begin every season thinking "This year could be different. We got Joe Schmo in the off season, and he's only 38....still plenty of life in him." Some of us just endure. Full of eternal hope and blind faith. Half way through every baseball season, thinking how great it will be when football season rolls around (because you're already mathematically out of it), and vice versa.

I wish death upon John Navarre practically every fall weekend for four years.

Thanks for doing the leg work on that one. That would the exact rant I was looking for.

Wow.

I loved the commenter who wrote someone should have kept track of the # of times LaVar said "get him."
