I complain, mainly because I want to see it on the field. Personally, as I said before, our last MNF game - against the eagles last year - lingers in my mind. I even imagine the MNF crew will remind the national audience of what happened last time we were on. And part of my mind remembers the LL and Hall were talking trash before that and we know how it went. Play the game, show it on the field, and talk smack afterwards!

I completely agree. That game haunts me, because I was a fan during Gibbs 1 and in those days, we settled scores on the field. We stood up and punched the bad guys in the mouth.

"Chicago ready, if Redskins show up." I'll never forget that article. It came out before the 86 playoff game at soldier field. Chicago was 14-2, and we beat the living crap out of them. Gibbs hung that article up for the players to see. We did that a lot in those days....we made the bad guys pay!

I could be wrong, but I heard a number of times during the Cards/Skins game that Darnell Dockett was upset because Hightower had guaranteed a win. Since TH is a new Redskins and it wasn't a big rivalry game, this wasn't hyped up by the media and no one mentioned this here. If D. Hall had said something like that, there would have been a 2000-post thread about it.

In my book, D. Hall or anyone saying they are going to bust Romo's ribs is not anywhere close to the circus that Haynesworth or McNabb were last year.

I don't care if one of our players says that we are going to win - I do care if they say something stupid and classless.
