According to the NFL spokesman Greg Aiello, to prevent fans from bringing any signs to home games is a team and stadium matter and the league does not plan to stop the team from doing that.
That was what Aiello said in an e-mail to The Associated Press on Thursday. He also wrote in the mail that NFL teams are responsible for preventing the display of signs that obstruct sightlines or “which are inflammatory, derogatory or generally in bad taste.” That means fans, supporting or protesting will not be allowed to take any signs or banners into the stadium where the Redskins play their home games.
Although Redskins COO David Donovan said during a radio appearance on 106.7 The Fan that they prevent spectators from carrying signs or banners into the game for fan security and comfort, it just easily reminded me of the fact that there has been increasing sings critical of owner Dan Snyder and front office chief Vinny Cerrato during Washington’s 2-5 start and gets me to wonder the relationship between the ban and the front office. I guess some fans will anyway find other methods to express their feelings, like printing signs on the NFL jerseys they are wearing?
