For starters, whoever designed the parking situation should be sentenced to death by Chinese Water Drip torture. What a nightmare to get back to the damn Apollo lots. Who the hell puts a church right next to the damn stadium??????

As for the game, I have never seen my team play so poorly. Couldn't even get excited about the TD return. It is one thing to lose, another to get man-handled on both sides of the ball by a 3-8 team. As for the crowd, I was amused. Some of your brethren were acting like they won the Super Bowl rather than a 5-7 team in the midst of a 5-game losing streak who is missing their 2 best defensive players (strahan and wilson).

A lot of hostlity around here today,not in your post,but others,I've never been to the stadium but the parking probably does suck,my cousins go and I've heard them say rfk was much better,as for the crowd getting excited,you cant blame them,especially the way we've been playing and not scoring any points,it probably felt as good as the s.b.
As far as manning is concerned,way,way too early to tell whether he'll be a bust or not,he has been facing some excellent defenses
and your right ,we have been saying wait till next yr for 5 yrs,but hell,what else are we gonna say? but at least you've had another coach take ya'll to the superbowl since parcells,I wish we could say that since gibb's left

While Eli is a rookie with a lot of potential, dont forget the Redskins have a rookie
with just as much potential on the defensive side of the ball in Sean Taylor.
He is the same size as the Giants greatest player of all time, Lawerence Taylor, he is only 21, and HE PLAYS SAFETY....

The redskins have some good things going....

You have Sean Taylor and Gibril Wilson the Giants 3rd round selection at safety has had a better season. What is your point?

matty, I know what you are saying. It was a powder keg that finally exploded. It was still entertaining!!!!

Can I just ask cogg who exactly rattled your cage? You go on about fans whooping and a hollaring and beating their chest but this was the game we have been waiting for all year. If the Giants had dominated in the same way are you saying they would just shrug thier collective shoulders and make thier way quietly to the exit?

[coggs]

noone got in my face or anything like that. Just saying it was funny to see fans going crazy when the bottom line is their team is 4-8. That's all.

Bottom line is we haven't scored over 18 points all season, and since we did that in one half against your team we were excited.

We're real fans here that care about our team and no matter how we win or what our record is, we will always be excited about a win. Especially a win against our division rival.

so everyone who made their way to the stadium and payed for tickets should have just chilled out right?

20yr waiting list for season tickets. most profitable sports team period. DC fans buy out every single game regardless of the record. and thats the largest stadium in the NFL too. there's a very special loyalty around the Redskins, something that is certainly not in the fans here in NY.

Coggs before you say that your safety has had a better season than ours check the stats. They're pretty much even right now.

Taylor

58 tackles, 1 sack, 3 INTS



Wilson

55 tackles, 3 sacks, 3 INTS


No that much of a difference except the fact that Taylor plays for a top ranked defense where everyone can make a play. Including our boy Griffin. Boy did you guys need him yesterday.

Hhhmmm...well that 4-8 team sure made your 5-7 team look a junior varsity high school team....and that is giving the Giants alot of credit.

At the rate the Giants are going, they'll probably not win a game the rest of the season.

So, the 40+ year waiting list for Giants season tixx, is fickle? Every seat for the Giants (77,000) is a season-ticket. The Giants owenership is investigating whether they should renovate Giants stadium or build a new stadium on the same site. If they build a 90,000 seat stadium, the additional 13,000 seats would be sold in no time. The 15 year list for the jets is fickle? Do not compare the towns. New York supports 2 teams in every sport, 3 in hockey. The Skins are the only team with a following in the DC area. From what I have been told/seen noone cares about the Capitals and Wizards.

Gibril Wilson also won Defensive Rookie of the Month for October.

I dunno, maybe you should go on a forum board for either the Capitals or Wizards and see for yourself. After all you do realize this is a Redskins forum board not a Capitals or Wizards forum board.

Who gives a crap??? This is the December. I'm sure Wilson has been long forgotten by now.
