It could be the biggest Washington scandal since Watergate. Or not. It's still too early to tell. But today all of Washington is talking about the scam that the Redskins have been running on their loyal fans.

At the top of Page One in today's Washington Post is the news that the Redskins have been peddling precious tickets to brokers:

"For more than 70 years, the Washington Redskins have boasted that they have sold out every game. Seats are so scarce, the team says, that the waiting list for general admission season tickets has 160,000 names on it.

But the reality is that those who want tickets can often find them online through ticket resellers such as StubHub. And in recent years, the Redskins ticket office itself has sold tickets into this secondary market, making it easier for fans of opposing teams to invade FedEx.

Thousands of general admission tickets were sold to brokers, who resold them on the secondary market, often at higher-than-retail prices, according to interviews and internal Redskin documents. These were often tickets to the very seats that Redskins fans have waited years to get.

The Redskins acknowledged that the sales were made but said they were against team policy.''

Oh, the humanity.

How long before a special prosecutor is appointed and congressional hearings are scheduled?
