Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

How bout it! The real wait is just about over, we get to see OUR team in action!

Seems like forever and a day.

Hope to see a sharp, short lived performance from the first line, with[B] NO INJURIES[/B] tonight! And see some of the new guys get some action against what I expect to be another really solid ravens team.

Here's to a GREAT SEASON! LETS ROLL 2009/10 right into Miami!

Game time 7:30, I do believe.

Discuss.

It's only 3:20 and I'm so pumped I could spit! It's been so long it feels like a regular season game. I want to see some HITTING from our bigtime "D"!!! I want the offense to look like they know WTH they're doing. It's time for the rooks to show they can play some NFL football. Let's roll baby! HTTR!!! :woot:

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

I am going as well. I don't know if I should wear my Cooley jersy or just my yellow skins shirt. I am scared it will be to hot for the Jersey.

I am coming from my Baltimore office and walking through downtown in Skins colors. It's about a mile walk. I am sure I will here some colorful commentary as to my apparel from the locals (think Philly fans but less rational).

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

Its been a long week guys. I'm looking to get the season started on the right note.

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

I'll be rocking my ST #21 75th anniversary jersey tonight. Going to Safeway to pick up some cold beer and off to my buddy's house to watch the game.

Football is finally back!!!!

Side note - if you want a Redskins bar in Baltimore with good food, check out [URL="http://www.slyfoxpub.com/Federal%20Hill.asp"]Sly Fox Pub in Fed Hill. [/URL] It's way down Fort Ave next to the shopping center with Shopper's so there's always parking.

Side note: Joe Gibbs is getting ready to come on Jim Rome.

I hear ya. I wear my gear all the time in non-football season and it's no big deal. I get some wisecracks now and again but nothing major. However, Baltimore has BIG chip on its shoulder about the Skins and their fans aint the sharpest tacks in the box. Even if its preseason, there are some that are just nutso about the Skins.

Thanks for the heads up on the bar. Wish I could find a Skins bar in town that was kid friendly.

I know seriously. When I wear a jersey I have to wear two shirts the jersey and a undershirt, just gets to damn itchy without one. I am not scared of what the Raven's fans are going to say to me. Plus I have been there two times with Skins gear. One pre-season game in 05 (? or 04) and last years regular season, no one said shit.

[quote=JoeRedskin;575235]Thanks for the heads up on the bar. Wish I could find a Skins bar in town that was kid friendly.[/quote]No problem. I'm not sure if they're cool with kids on game day, they might be cool with it since it's technically a restaurant. To be honest, I went there a lot for trivia, pre-kickball drinking, etc but I never watched any Skins games there since my buddy had Sunday Ticket and a big screen but I've heard good things.

I drive through every day on the way to work and home. My office is on Cedar Road about 1 mile before city hall. This area has really grown over the years. Are you from the Deep Creek area?

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

I'm so freakin pumped. This day has been the longest day I have ever had to deal with. Almost SKINS TIME BABY!!!

Dude -- just yanking your chain. But, seriously, if you worried about being too hot, just get one of the pink jerseys. I hear they are much cooler, perfect for your temprement.

I keed I keed.


I just want football!!!!!

Yeah I graduated from Deep Creek. We used to have a pretty good rivalry didn't we firstdown? :)

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

note: stolen from a different board, modified for here.

For nearly eight whole months, you tried to suppress it.

You tried different homemade therapies to minimize your cravings.

There were those sneak peaks during the combine.

You allowed some excitement when Haynesworth signed

Cheers when Orakpo was signed in the draft.

Then Cursed the FO when our OLine hadn't changed

Pill popping Excedrin Migraine caplets became the norm while reading one Terl tweet… twirp… whatever… after another.

The regular season still hasn’t arrived yet, but the first preseason game is just a few short hours away.

The miniature Clinton Portis/Dexter Manley/Sam Huff cries out from the back of your skull, “IT AIN’T REAL FOOTBALL!!!!!!!”, but the tiny Joey T/Darrell Green squatting in your nostrils whispers that it certainly smells like it though.

It pulls at your gut. For half a second, you say it's only hunger pains. Your stomach yells, “UNCLE!” after downing that fifth drumstick and you regrettably concede, “That’s ain’t it, dang it!”.

There aren’t enough cotton balls to shut out Hank Williams Jr.[SIZE="6"] ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL! FOOTBALL! FOOTBALL![/SIZE] [SIZE="4"]FOOTBALL![/SIZE] [SIZE="2"]FOOTBALL![/SIZE]

Pack it in ladies and gentlemen. Give up. Surrender to temptation.

The Washington Redskins are about to take the field again. And even though it’s a glorified scrimmage, the relief flowing over you is a good thing.

Be happy. Your stomach sure will be. { BURP! }

Yes I'd say Deep Creek would have fallen right behind Churchland for us. What year did you Grad. I was 1983.

I got 10 years on you. 73.

Re: Redskins vs Ravens Gameday thread
 

I am really excited knowing that it is meaningless...

Let's go Pinapple Je5us!!!!

I hope Orakpo breaks somebodies ribs!
