its impressive to see the dan shell out money year after year and to stil have a great fan base for it only to end in dissapointment. Only the redskins could sign an all world de like taylor and have him not make a drop of impact in the pass rush.
Only we could have a shawn springs do his impression manny ramirez by not playing half the season and netting a nice nice paycheck.
only the redskins could have everyone begging for a quaterback change every year and when they get it they go to the next on the list.
the list goes on and on.
Im just impressed that our owner gets all these players has a team all this time, and for some reason we are always just "almost there"
Its been like that for a very long time. Just enough to make us salivate for next year with hope that if we buy our tickets and take off work to watch the game..this could be the year...
to be able to be that good at being bad is impressive.

I've been impressed with how we won back to back games on the road against the Cowboys and Eagles. How we came back from down more than a touchdown against the Eagles and Saints. How, inspite of playing large chunks of the season without Shawn Springs and Jason Taylor and with a 7th round rookie starting at safety, we still have close to a top 5 defense. How Clinton Portis ran for 175 yards on the Browns, who have held the leading rusher to under 80 yards 7 times this year. How Jason Campbell didn't throw a single interception for the first 8 weeks of the season. How under a first year coach we are 7-5, which happens to be the best record we've had after 12 games since 2000.
