No one, I'd watch more hockey I suppose.

First of all, I never jump ship. I'm a Redskin fan for life. I do feel sorry for the underdogs and like to see them do well when the Skins are not in contention I live in St. Louis, so my favorite dogs has to be the Rams and the Chiefs.

To play along, from this list I would pick the 49ers due to their rich tradition. When they were winning I always enjoyed watching them, from the Montana days up through Young. To me they were always a likable franchise. Plus my brother is a 49ers fan.

Outside of this list though I would probably be a Packers fan if there were no Redskins.

How can you question any man's sincerity who quotes the Tater? It is obvious that he has a screw loose and should be taken lightly...Yes, I just refered to myself in the 3rd person.

Good point.

I actually like him. I'm just jealous he makes so much money just by being his ordinary self.

HAIL!

I actually cannot believe that the Raiders are one of the teams listed here as an option, and even more amazed that there are some here who would choose them in this hypothetical.

The second darkest Redskins day in the 30+ years I've rooted for this team was the day of the humiliating SB XVIII defeat (ST's passing away obviously being first). At the time, it was the largest margin of defeat in any Super Bowl game. Marcus Allen's second half run, which we've been forced to endure replays of hundreds and hundreds of times over the years, was the icing on that awful cake. Am I really among a minority of fans on this site who can actually remember that game?

Since then, my hatred for the Raiders has been virtually equal to that of the Cowboys. The fact that there have been larger margins of SB victories (including our 32 point win over the Broncos) has done nothing to lessen the hate for that team. I f*&#ing hate them, and so should every Redskins fan.

For me that Super Bowl is much like Bill Buckner's Game 6 gaffe in the 1986 World Series was for Red Sox fans...I just don't talk about it. I just bottled it up and everytime it tries to resurface I just push it back down. (Tick, tick, tick...). Problem solved (for now).

HAIL!

Raiders..With all that talent they need a coach plus Davis retired that would assure them Dynasty status

BDBohnzie · 01-20-2009, 03:00 PM

I have family from the Cincy area, and was a big Boomer fan growing up (University of Maryland), so I'd throw my support to the Bengals if push came to shove...

The only way id would stop cheerin for the skins if is danny boy moved the team or changed the name. Neither of which i see happening. But if id had to i would say the bills or browns. Both loveable lossers with great fans bases. Bills games not the whine and cheese type enviroment that fed ex has turned into, im talking hot tubes, drunks from across the border causing rukus and plus all the cheap blue's you can drink. Browns b/c there hate for the steelers and their fans are just like hey its the browns we know we suck but we love em any way.
