Who mute their TV after the first quarter not to have to listen to Gruden. Gruden is perfect for the fair weather fans that are flocking here now.


"and I watched RGIII last night he is awesome but they got other great players like D. Hall; the guy on TV could not stop talking about him."


Which leads me too brace yourself for the band wagoners; good after the 2004 WS everyone and their mother was a Red Sox fan. I was like where have this people been?

I was watching the game with almost no sound. Was watching it in bed while my sick wife was sleeping, so I didn't have to endure the Gruden stuff, lol!

John Madden did the same thing. Ron Jaworski did the same thing. The huge majority of those guys do that.

I don't understand your negative attitude toward bandwagon fans. We need them. It's only going to help the Skins to have a home stadium filled with loud, crazy fans and to have more support throughout the community. It helps the team to build momentum. Plus it's more fun.

We are not better than the bandwagon folks. We just a have a higher threshold for emotional pain and disappointment than they do. Everybody loves a winner but few people can hang in there for decades of losing.

I cant stand Gruden. He makes MNF almost unwatchable.

I took it as this is what he's paid to do, as in he better make that play for the money he's being paid

lol true. But I think like we've talked about before, Gruden just talks up everybody in a positive way, often too much. I just thought that was funny.


In terms of the playcall post, come'on man. Last night was nothing but good design and good calls. Cant be perfect everytime, and give the giants defense a little credit, there not scrubs along the d-line. Had no problem last night.

I did. Gruden gushes about everyone, but that was over the top. I also almost thought i saw griffin contain a laugh himself when Gruden put Hall in the same category as guys like Fletcher in the pre-game interview. Hall is an occasional playmaker, but he's about the furthest thing from a shutdown corner i can imagine.
