Nah, it's Marty! Rivers will be the goat, but it will be Marty.

Czabe's article is a little negative for me but i kindof understand a little where he's coming from. It's called venting for another bad-mediocre season. This makes about 12 or so bad-mediocre seasons out of 14. While I don't agree w/ alot in there I do "feel his pain."

I'm a Gibbs guy. I watched Gibbs 1 and the thing that I remember is killing teams. Scoring points. Throwing downfield w/ a tremendous running game. I don't remember us just trying to stay in games. When Jay Schroeder came in, guess what we did, go deep. So i do agree that Gibbs is alot more conservative than i remember. So yea, Gibbs seems a little scared at times and quite honest not done such a good job at managing the game clock too.

I'm trying to keep the faith but sometimes you gotta vent.

Back then, while throwing deep, we controlled the clock. Gibbs is obsessed with Time of Possession. While it generally helps to win a game, we have proven that it doesn't even come close to guarenteeing a win.

I agree, Czab's take is a bit negative but like you said 12 duds out of 14 does not give a skins fan much to be positive about and Czab is a skins fan.

Again I think skins fans have become used to losing now and when someone points out how far they have fallen and does it with some passion then it's perceived as too negative because they have become used to thinking next year will be better.

It WILL be.
We are a collective group of Skins lovers. We do not care if we go winless, we will still be there in our burgandy and gold to support our team, and we wear our jersey's out in public getting ridacule during the week. If we do not think positive of our Skins chances, then who will.
I don't know about you guys, but every year I will feel we have a good shot.

What?
Why? Cause I wear my Skins jerseys out in public? I'm 31 years old and have been married almost 10 years. There is not a single soul that knows me that doesn't realize that I am a skins fan. Maybe I am a bit fanatical, but so what? We are on a REDSKINS WEBSITE, TALKING REDSKINS. If wearing a jersey is fanatical or childish, then so is being on this website. There is nothing wrong with being a fan.

Thanks for proving my point.

Deep down, I bet we all feel that way...including you. Even being as knowledgable as we are, we are consummate fans.

we lost this week so I'm more on the negative side, if we win next week, ill be more on the positive side.....that's how being a fan works.

Thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one.

Hey, nothin wrong with wearing a jersey on game day or to the stadium, but when you wear one out in public during the week it just seems gay to me...not that theres anything wrong with that, but IMO it just doesn't seem right. Game day, good, out on a date with the wife, bad.

I disagree. If the wife and I go out to eat somewhere, I wear appropriate clothing, however, if we're heading to Wal-Mart, a jersey goes on.

Czabe's article was right on the money. I still think people are blinded by Gibbs 1.
