Re: Anyone else nervous?

This season is almost like a dream, and I definitely don't want to wake up!

Seriously though, to me this has been a great season already, everything from here on out is just icing on the cake.

6 weeks ago could you imagine someone saying the Redskins would not only make the playoffs but go on the road and punk Tampa in their own backyard??

None of this talk!
There can be no content feelings!
Everyone including fans must realize that the future is now. None of this "We're just happy to be here" type stuff. I agree this season has been great but I will agonize for months if we lose. I will not be happy. A wise man once said: "Winning isn't everything. It's the only thing"

I'm simply saying we've had a great season to this point and nobody can take that away from us, not even these mediots who are trying to piss on our parade.

Angry Re: Anyone else nervous?

Was it pissing anyone off besides me yesterday during the Panther/Giants game when Troy Aikman kept saying that the Panthers are built to win on the road?
By saying that he was implying that they have a great defense and can run the ball. Isn’t that what we do? I was screaming at the TV what about us Mother ****er?!?!

Why would Aikman talk about the redskins during a NY/Car game?

Re: Anyone else nervous?

I'm nervous. I was nervous last week too. Mainly because of Brunell. Since his knee has been hurt, he's basically returned to the Mark Brunell of last year. Portis' health is a concern too. He's been dinged up all season, but it appears that it's starting to take a toll on him now.

With that said, I've always felt that the Seakawks were a soft team. They're definitely not as good as their record. The defense will keep Washington in the game, but if the offense can't swing more than three points, it'll be a painful game to watch.

As an unbiased observer of the league that he is being paid to cover.

I am 99.9% certain Aikman is a color commentator for the game he is doing not an NFL beat reporter for Fox.

Consider the source ..... Aikman... PLEASE ... AIKMAN could not make complete sentences without reading them off of cue card. AIKMAN comments about football teams ... is like asking MIKE TYSON about dating tips ....

I actually love Aikman as a commentator, I think he's fair on all counts and makes great points. He sees all the little things that happen in a game, like a good seal on a trap block.

I think that just because Aikman commented on the Panthers' ability to win on the road, that does not mean he doesn't think the same about the Skins. He just didn't comment on it.

I think anyone who says the Skins don't have a chance in this Seattle game is crazy. You can make a claim for either team to win, it should be a hard-fought game.

If you don't allow yourself to enjoy a good season from the team when it has one, I think you just end up making yourself miserable.

I want the Skins to win this Seattle game more than anything, but if they lose I will applaud them as they walk off the field. They've given me a lot of great moments to remember this year. You can't come away from every season with a championship, but you can take away memories from every season. No matter what happens this weekend, I'm going to always remember the 14-13 win over Dallas, sweeping the Eagles, the 35 point trouncing of the Cowboys and Giants, the 6 game win streak in December and January, Portis' press conference costumes, and the birth of a classic nickname, Captain Chaos.

I'm very happy with the team this year, no matter what happens in Seattle. I just hope they make me even happier with another win.

Well said.

I certainly wouldn't be happy if they lose on Sat., but if they did once the dust settled on the season I would be pretty happy with the results overall. We've definitely exceeded everyone's expectations and the future looks much brighter than it ever has.
