What is the current losing streak vs. Dallas?

[paulskinsfan]

As I prepare to sit in my recliner, in my custom made No. 56 jersey with "LaVar" on the back, sipping my beer and cursing repeatedly at my big screen which I bought just for this season, I began wondering: What is the current losing streak vs. the Cowboys? Seems to me someone said we've lost like 17 out of the past 18 games or something like that, does anyone know? The reason I ask is because approximately 10 years ago I made a bet with an old friend of mine who was a Boys fan. The bet was $20/game, winner only regardless of the spread. Im pretty sure Ive paid him like $300 bucks, and he's paid me once! Dear Football Gods, I know Coach Joe has made some questionable head scratching calls the past year, but PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, just once, can't we just catch a few lucky bounces and beat the Cowboys.

Last time we won was Thanksgiving when Spurrier was coaching. Is it 2 or 4 losses in a row. Whatever it is it is too many.

We actually lost that Thanksgiving Day game in Dallas. That was the game where Brian Barker got his nose completely smashed and looked like the pig-people from The Twighlight Zone.

The last time we beat them was the Darrell Green's last game at home. I can't remember off the top of my head which year it was exactly. I think it was 2003, (the year Danny suckered us into buying 70th anniversery jerseys. Who celebrates the 70th anniversery, he could have waited a few years and we could have all bought stuff for the 75th. Just would have made more sense to me).

All I know for sure is, if we don't beat the Cowboys and the Eagles at least once each I'm going to have a heart attack at 23 years old...

I believe the Boys have won 14 of the past 15 and 9 straight in Dallas

I have a standing bet with my ex-boss of a case of Corona. At $20 a throw I'm down a considerable amount after 5 years too.

Come on Redskins!

We should of won that game. lol Heck we should of won most of the games we lost. The won back in 1999 when Rocket Ismial got a long pass to win was a hard one to loose.

That (the Rocket OT) was the first regular season game I ever went to, talk about a kick in the crotch.

Is there any way to ban Skins season ticketholders from selling their tickets to opposing fans? My dad and cousin got kicked out of the last game againist Dallas because some bucked tooth redneck in a Cowboys shirt started a fight. It seems like this would not stand back in the day, but its commonplace now.

That's frustrating, I agree. My experience with the staff of FedEx tells me that there is a much lower tolerance for Jackassery for fans of the other guys. Tell your dad to narc them out, and watch them get escorted from the building.

Take back Fed Ex Field!

If you see a Cow-Whores fan at the game in December throw a beer over yourself and then find Security and have the them punted out of the ground. I'll pay for the beer.

[ArtMonkDrillz]

that's what he tried to do, only they told him they have a policy to kick everyone out regardless

Come on Redskins!

You think thats bad I have a standing bet with a budy of 50 bucks a game or you could say 100 bucks if one teams sweeps the season. I'm down 400 or 500 I'v lost count. Its so bad my budy won't even rub it in anymore.

So essentially it's having a detrimental effect on the economy too.

Dan, if you're reading this, win one for my bosses' liver.

That means this is hardly a "rivalry" I mean, afterall, don't you need to win every once in awhile for a rivalry? Sigh. Just this once, just for this one game, I summon the spirit of the late George Allen, please, please let us beat them just this one time!
