So I don't know about you guys, but on Redskins Day eve, I feel like a little kid waiting to get up for Christmas day. Winter is my favorite time of year, and I feel all warm and fuzzy inside when my Skins are back on the field. Yeah, I know that sounds a little gay, but I am secure in my manhood.

About 11 years ago, my wife and I called the first day of the season "Happy Redskins Day", and it's stuck for over a decade. Today I say to all of you, Happy Redskins day. May our day be blessed with a win!!!!

First of all, "gay" is not a bad thing.

Second, congrats on having a wife who shares in the love for the Redskins. My own wife's fanfare for the Redskins is pretty much limited to her desire to not have to deal with my post-game moods when they lose.

Third, Happy Redskins Day to you, too. Go Redskins! Beat the Giants!

Well, my wife is actually a Broncos fan with some love to the Colts. She is a fan of the Skins, and she's a bigger fan of football in general, but she understands I LOVE the Skins unconditionally, and she cheers just as hard as I do for them. It's a great thing. When I first met her, she didn't care about football...I taught her a thing a two.

What sucks is I can't even wear any Redskins stuff today until after I get off work. I have my brand spankin new Jason Taylor jersey waiting for me when I get home though.

Holy crap, it's almost here!!! I need to make a beer run after work too. See you guys here when the game starts.

ps- for all those family guy fans, do you remember when Peter was telling Joe, Quagmire and Cleveland that he was going to have a baby and they all put their hands to their mouths and shreeked like a little girl in excitement? Well, that is how I feel right now. hehe.
