Re: Cheer up folks!

I know I'll get grief for this, but I was so disgusted I went to bed before all hell broke loose. My oldest son ran up the stairs not long afterward to burst through our bedroom door (good thing I was not in the mood) and advise us that the 'Skins had just won. I took it as a typical young teenagers joke and told him to go to bed and get the hell out of our bedroom, I didn't want to hear any jokes about the game. I awoke the next morning and on his way out the door to school he told me again that we won and if I didn't believe him to turn the TV on and check for myself. Well, I couldn't freakin' believe it! I not only apologized to him but I've never tuned out of another 'Skins game no matter how bad we looked.

Re: Cheer up folks!

I have our 2006, 35-7 trouncing of Dallas on DVD. Every time we dip below .500 I pop it in to cheer myself up. Still brings a smile to my face for a good 2 hours every time I watch it.

What sad is you have to look at a game from a year ago to cheer yourself up, and all Cowboy fans have to do is look at last weekend, and look forward to this weekend.

I agree with you sandtrap this is a pretty sad bunch of fans. You won't be able to say that next week.

There ya go! Thats the spirit! Have not seen much of a positive outlook on this site this week, and that is a breath of fresh air!

Most folks are all "gloom and doom" about the game, but this is Redskins/Cowboys week, if that alone does not get you blood moving, I don't know what will!

Funny thing is you have had more positive things to say about this team than our own fans have. Its Dallas week and I always think of these games as throw out the records of both teams because it never seems to matter. On paper Dallas may look alott better but football is not played on paper. We have allot of talent on this team and players that are getting a chance to make a name for themself. So we will see and its always more fun to beat Dallas on their own field.

Re: Cheer up folks!

"What the hell was that for?" he said.

"Becuase yer wearing that stupid Blue and silver star here in Virginia" I told him

I had just smacked a friend and cashier upside the back of his head when I was getting some food earlier today.

THAT'S How you get ready for Redskins vs Cowpokers Weekend folks.

I fully expect my Skins to go down there and smack somebody in the damn mouth.

Hail Skins!!!!

Re: Cheer up folks!

I think the article I found mainly concentrated on the RECORDS of the two teams leading up to the game.

If I remember correctly, the Monday night Moss Miracle, both teams were deeply embedded in mediocrity.

The article I found stresses the "11-0 Redskins" and the "10-2 Cowboys", basically pointing out the disparity between the two.

This Sunday certainly qualifies with an 8-1 vs a 5-4.

I know I just like rubbing that in when I get a chance.

Re: Cheer up folks!

The only difference this time around to me, is I don't think the Skins have the "horse power" to stay with the Cowboys, unless Romo makes mistakes or the Cowboys turn it over. The 2007 Skins make too many mental mistakes, penalties at the wrong time, bad clock managment, timeout issues, ect. And even with help, they have to play every game to the last snap. It is frustrating to fans of Joe Gibbs, that this Skins team is so mistake ridden!
