They would have resold her seats within days. One of the first things asked in a suit is if the plaintiff suffered a loss. The Redskins didn't. And I'll bet there was all kinds of language in the contract forbidding her from reselling the seats.

It's as if the bank foreclosed on your house, sold it and made back their 100K, and then sought a judgement for another 100K. The Redskins basically stood to make a $60,000 profit above the revenue from reselling the seats by forcing the lady into bankruptcy.

Evil...fucking....bastards.

Of course the lady was a sucker for not showing up in court. She should also have tried to sell her tickets and forced the Redskins to not allow it.

Oh, and I don't think anyone needs to be upset about the Redskins referencing native Americans. It's obvious that their red skin is the result of their being the spawns of Satan.
