Schneed doesn't like it when you wish him a happy birthday....or when you try to subtly say hello by putting Hi Schneed! under your username! Has he said hello back to me? No, he hasn't. He's just a big grinch

did you just do that taf, cause i just noticed it and think its hillarious

Maybe it's just because I come from Philadelphia, but I think fanbases need to take a page out of the Eagles' book in order to develop a better homefield advantage. You can't go to a game and expect to create game-altering noise without feeling some passion. If that passion comes from a hatred of the other team and results in some cursing, it's all the better for your team.

Nobody's saying fans need to get in fights, throw ice on the field, and intimidate other people. But you have to be ready to bring the noise to create a good homefield. I don't know about you, but the only way I can be that loud for three straight hours is if I've really got the blood flowing. Sometimes the Skins are winning and it's easy to get loud because you're excited. But when the Skins are losing, you have to summon some hatred for the other team in order to bring the noise.


I thought in Philly, they do say, "fans need to get in fights, throw ice on the field, and intimidate other people." The "hatred" and "cursing" are just how Eagles fans show their class.

Been there since Friday

I'm offended by the birthday boy! I've taken it upon myself to update everyone on Sin-cinatti's legal situation and he had to step on my toes, just like someone else did the other day when they reported on the guard that got his boat pulled over.

i noticed, and feel partly responsible(along with malcolm) and good morning gigity and tafkas

LOL I just noticed that. Brilliant.

I am indeed a grinch.

Eagles fanbase a model for others to follow? I hope you are done driving for the day.

Actually I'm being entirely serious. They have one of the best homefield advantages in football. Their fans get into fights and behave like morons, and I'm not condoning that part of their behavior. But at the same time they're intensely passionate and that place gets downright friggin loud. That's the part I'd want to model, the passion. So if the guy next to me is all riled up, making noise and getting really into it, and he happens to blurt out a few curse words in the process; and then I go and call the Jerk hotline on him, that hurts the homefield advantage in my opinion. Now all of a sudden people have to watch their mouths instead of just letting fly with the noise and the passion.

This is going to make people mad, but I've been saying it for a while, Redskin fans need to sack up if they're going to make Fed Ex feel like RFK again. You can't sit there and just "have a pleasant afternoon." You have to bring the nasty. Us Skins fans took a good step forward last year, Fed Ex was much noisier. But it has a ways to go to join the likes of the Linc and Arrowhead.
