Re: REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

I was very nervous yesterday because I had to watch the game over at my sister's house and I had been convinced that my 5 month old niece was bad luck. I've only watched a couple of games while in the same house as her this year and we lost everyone (the last two preseason games, the giants game, and most recently I had to watch my terps get completely embarassed by UVA with her).
I was devasted to see that f'ing Comcast Howard County was showing pro bull riding instead of the Redskins game yesterday so I rushed over to my sister's becuase she has Fios and gets all the DC stations in HD. After that BS punt return I demanded that my sister put my niece into her lucky Redskins cheerleader outfit because we were 3-0 when she wore it. Sure enough, she got the dress on her and the rest is history.

Well I watch the games in my garage and grill out for all games rather its ribs wings burgers we jut grill something. The past two weeks we have not grilled anything do to one reason or the other but I said yesterday that te grill is off until we loose a game. That might be tough to do or maybe I'll grill stuff up before the game starts.

Well its safe to say Im not the only loonie Skins fan. Now I can show my wife that I dont need to be hospitalized.LOL. If the games on two different channels and we are losing on one ill change it to the other. I even will watch defense on one and offense on the other. But yesterday Me and my 8 year old son were watchin the game and he said "dad we are losing because you dont have anything Redskins on" So he puts one of my hats on my head and sure as shit we started winning. Im so proud of that boy. Good job Diggy.

Nice!
I threw off my Redskins hat after the punt return and didn't put it back on until the game was officially over.

Re: REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

I do the Jersey thing. I rotate when we lose. I wore my new Dirty 30 last week, so you better believe I'm wearing that again.

Another thing is, I always, ALWAYS watch it with members of my band, even if it is only one member. All 5 of us are hardcore Skins/Wiz fans so we oftern watch the games.

There is always some kind of alcohol involved....and food too.

I stand a lot during the games...I can't take the stress.

Re: REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

Since week 2, I have been wearing the same shoes, shorts and skins shirt to each game and watch it at the same sportsbar on Hilton Head Island with my Redskins Family. I go home after the victory, wash everything in order to be ready for the next week. All the SKINS that watch the game with me, sit in the same chairs/tables, all wear the same outfits each week, since week 2. Anything that we can do, we will do, to Hail our Redskins!!!

Re: REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

First thing is to put out the Redskin flag on front of the house. Cannot and won't wear
anything with opposing team colors. If watching at home and something bad happens, will change ends of couch or different seat. Have even mad the dog sit beside me and
he couldn't leave as long as things going good. I've now made my 17 yr old son the same way. Normally wear my white Riggins jersey. Last Sunday when score was 14-0, I went and changed into burgundy Riggins jersey to match the team.

I don't touch a beer until the second half.

I have to watch the game on the same television.

I have to predict a loss on the the prediction thread.

I always have victory sex. No victory=no sex.

I failed us guys. I started drinking before the game and I started watching the game on the wrong TV.

Re: REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

Over the years I've shed most of my rituals. It's a little OCD when you think about it. The only thing I do now is put on a jersey when I watch the game, that's about it.

I put my Portis jersey on by at least 8 am, regardless of game time. I sit in the same spot on the couch, and don't move unless it's halftime or end of the game.
