What can "I" do?

What can I do? What can "I" as a dejected Redskins fan do to make life miserable for Vinny and Danny? I'm willing to do anything, even if that means removing my Redskins Radio station and deleting my links to Redskins media. I'm willing to spend hundreds of dollars in this economy RIGHT NOW to make life the slightest bit harder for those two men. The votes have been tallied, and Vinny n Danny are the problem.
I'm not interested in bickering over the fine details. It's them.
I'm not afraid to spend a night in jail. I've been sour for hundreds of Sundays.
I'm willing to scream my lungs out in Rage and Fury. I do it most Sundays.
I'm the type of fan who builds his schedule around Sundays this time of year, and I've never not wanted to watch but now I wonder...
I feel that there must be more we as fans can do to shake up things at the top, I just need some inspiration to peer through the blinding hate of this owner, Daniel Snyder.
Please, any suggestions. The louder the better

I voted 3... even though I don't quite believe it. Hope springs eternal.

If anyone can do this, the media can. Someone somewhere needs to plant the seed of mistrust between Vinny n Danny and end this ambiguous duo's reign. Danny calls the shots, so he'd have to be suspicious of Vinny. Can we find any tape of Vinny saying anything that could undermine Snyder? Contradictions?

I'm not suffering now. The Skins are on every Sunday.

It will last as long as Snyder is owner, which likely will be another 40 years.

What I dont understand is that Synder is a sucessful businessman, as such presumably he dosnt employ imbeciles in important director positions in his company, so why does he keep the GM we have? If Vinny is his big mate then why not just create a meangingless 'god of all things football' position and 'promote' him to that, then get someone who knows football, to be the GM.
Until that happens we are going nowhere.
Hope the NFL dosnt extend the regular season , 16 matches of pain is quite enough

Jake as I tell Brandon...Yes thing will change as you and B get older guess who else does and he'll get it right...he'll back and realize he did it wrong...It's better than doing like JJ who won early in his career as an owner with Jimmy Johnson and is now doing his DS impression.

I don't believe it. I'll believe it when I see it.

If the Redskins committed to an actual plan for success next season that would end the "suffering" IMO. After that I'd be fine with the rebuild... but if we use the uncapped year to just sign some "stars" and get back into the thick of things... who knows if the Redskins will ever be good again.
Why don't we all try this: let's organize a massive letter writing campaign?
Now, there's no need to be rude about it, we could all stay civil but what if we all wrote a letter a week to Dan Snyder asking him to hire a real general manager, allow them to build a front office and hire a new coach.
If we could all come to a consensus (Russ Grimm as HC and Steve Keim as GM seems to be a popular pair in another thread.) then we could push for specifics.
As Redskins fans who buy merchandise, watch games, attend games and the like we have a right to have our voices heard. The "hire a real GM movement" has been picking up steam for a while now... so what if Snyder got 1,000 handwritten letters a week? You don't think that would speed things along?

Please! Skins fans can't come to a concensus on anything.

Shoooooot, I'll be there any chance I get!!! Not purchasing stuff is definitely ok for me to do.. heck, I'll just get super drunk before the game, sneak in some bottle water and I'm good to go. Well wait, I lie.. I need at least one hot dog.
