HTTR!!!! This is our house!

I try to keep it short for each team don't go straight to stats because I feel it get boring and make some jokes or snap judments of each games to keep it light.

I didn't say you're going to lose because you're the Redskins I said that they way I believed Rex was going to be used that you don't have the team for that to work. That I expected Rex making a costly mistake theat would lose you the game.

But I'll take what you're saying and make it better. thxs

We go through this every season. Honestly, I'm not sure why the mods allow it..it's really a form of spam. He comes in...posts a new thread every week and disappears until the next. I know he runs all kinds of leagues and gambling rings and must promote them, but why here? Do it on a Dallas site.

Its too much fun to ban him from the site. We all know if Dallas and we lost he would have been here posting. I called him out on that last year.

Remember they started 1-7 last year and we didn't hear a peep from them for months lol

I was here all last year, I never hide and I declared my team dead long before the rest of the NFL did.

I always take the picks objective never take sides and will call it as I see it. I watch around 10 games at least per week to have an objective view and make the racional decision.

You were hiding from Sunday to Thursday.

Made it back a day sooner than I predicted though! However, you do not need to bring race into the thread.

You have a point. Flapjack is fun to abuse too.

Hahaha I don't hide man I always come and take it if I get something wrong specially when I pick the team on one of the boards that I post to lose, because there will be a lot of I told you so. Funny thing is that when I'm right you don’t find the “ups Sorry you were right man”, like you say I don’t show up after the next column I don’t see you guys coming after a predicted loss and man up.

I don't believe I will ever go 48-0 in a week (16-0 in each category) it's practically impossible and if I ever do it would be a fluke. In predictions especially picking all the games you want to be over 70% straight up and over 55% against the spread and Ovr/Und to be good and over 65% to be great. With that percentage you’re in “The money” taking the line from Poker.


Now about the game I have to say I was really surprised how well Rex looked taking away the fumble he almost had a perfect game, so that surprised me he still got hit sacked 4 times and hit a lot but didn’t forced many balls and looked Ok.



I’m not sold and truly don’t believe yet that I’m looking into a Playoff team but I do believe that I might had gotten those predictions record wrong and Was looked more like a 7-9, 8-8 team and NY more like the bottom of the division.



Now to the guy that said that you had two proven QB’s in the roster I don’t know how you can call Beck proven and we all know from history that Rex is usually a rollercoaster can give you great games but also throw 4 picks in one game. Still the team looked more solid than it did in preseason let’s see how the season unfolds.


Unfortunately I will always have some spelling and grammar errors; I do this on my spare time mostly at nights. I try to double and triple check it but things will always slip by. It’s funny because all members here have perfect grammar. I always read the completely eloquent responses. I do try to make it perfect and will take it as a constructive criticism.


GL this week.

Perhaps we could ask the Crystal ball where Don is?
It might reply....Detox clinic.....

[Alvin Walton]

Great quote here.
Why do people believe in this crap?

Sorry but when Gerard becomes available and Pete Carroll comes out and says we’re not interested, were already set at QB you know they are tanking this season.

[Monkeydad]

We don't believe in this crap. We rip him every season.

[Alvin Walton]

He sure sucked a run with this thread.

D'BOYZ, you really don't get it. The reason people are quick to point out your mistakes is because this is a freaking Redskins forum. What do you expect? We aren't gonna huddle around the campfire and sing cumbaya after a Dallas fan was incorrect in his prediction.

If you want that kind of feedback, go to sportsbook/wager forum. This is a Redskins Football forum for fans.
