Put me in the not surprised category when news broke on Sunday that the Redskins may have mistakenly revealed that they’re running a Twitter account that was supposedly being run by their fans. I mean after all, Washington sucks and so do many in their fan base. Plus, they have a scumbag owner that thinks he can buy everything, so why not make up a fan site while he’s at it?
It all started when the “Redskins Facts” Twitter account, which is supposedly an account run by their fans, sent out a Tweet. That Tweet was deleted and then that same Tweet was then sent out from the Redskins’ main account. Here are the two Tweets:
Hmmmm… Something seems fishy here.
Here’s the Redskins Facts Twitter bio:
“RedskinsFacts.com is a growing online community of passionate Washington Redskins fans and others who support the team’s use of it’s name and logo.”
Sorry, Danny boy. You’ve been caught. I guess “others” in the bio means Redskins employees. Looks like someone in the Washington social media department will be out of a job.
