REDSKIN RITUALS. What weird things do you do to help the 'Skins kick butt on Sundays???

Here's one that I like. We have started eating a food that represents the opposing teams home city or region. Started by accident with New Orleans, then kept it going. I actually don't think it has anything to do with the team's performance but it is a good way to eat some different meals each Sunday.

New Orleans: Jumbalaya (W)
Arizona: Fajitas (W)
Dallas: Grilled New York Strips (don't care for Texas BBQ and cows, cowboys, pretty close) (W)
Philadelphia: Cheesesteaks (W)

On deck, St. Louis: Toasted Ravioli (?)

I hold a football during the game... I didn't have it for the first quarter... but from the second quarter on I did... I hold the ball when the Skins are on offense and put the ball down on defense.... odd, but it worked... I just have to watch now because my son is an Eagles fan... just to get under my skin... and he told me he's going to burn that football... so I hid it :) .... My wife says I'm pathetic but she just doesn't understand.

GO SKINS!!!!

if i happen to miss the start of the game and i tune in and the Skins are winning THEN start losing, i'll change the channel (my reasoning is that they had the EXACT amount of good kharma needed before i turned the game on, thus by turning it off all will be right with the world once again). if i watch from opening kickoff and they start losing (like yesterday when they were down 14-0) i'll turn it off and hope that by not watching it will negate any bad kharma...i also do this with the tarheels....i'll check the score from time to time and if they're making a comeback (like yesterday) i'll just keep it off my set but will check in. wierd i know.....

I was very nervous yesterday because I had to watch the game over at my sister's house and I had been convinced that my 5 month old niece was bad luck. I've only watched a couple of games while in the same house as her this year and we lost everyone (the last two preseason games, the giants game, and most recently I had to watch my terps get completely embarassed by UVA with her).
I was devasted to see that f'ing Comcast Howard County was showing pro bull riding instead of the Redskins game yesterday so I rushed over to my sister's becuase she has Fios and gets all the DC stations in HD. After that BS punt return I demanded that my sister put my niece into her lucky Redskins cheerleader outfit because we were 3-0 when she wore it. Sure enough, she got the dress on her and the rest is history.

Well I watch the games in my garage and grill out for all games rather its ribs wings burgers we jut grill something. The past two weeks we have not grilled anything do to one reason or the other but I said yesterday that te grill is off until we loose a game. That might be tough to do or maybe I'll grill stuff up before the game starts.

I'd go with some St. Louis style shortribs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St._Louis-style_barbecue)...

In season's past, I would wear whatever color jersey the Skins were wearing that day. This year, I haven't kept to superstitions of years' past...I'm just rolling with the punches, doing whatever on game day, eating whatever on game day, etc. and it's working thus far...

did i mention during the game,i pray a lot?

Well its safe to say Im not the only loonie Skins fan. Now I can show my wife that I dont need to be hospitalized.LOL. If the games on two different channels and we are losing on one ill change it to the other. I even will watch defense on one and offense on the other. But yesterday Me and my 8 year old son were watchin the game and he said "dad we are losing because you dont have anything Redskins on" So he puts one of my hats on my head and sure as shit we started winning. Im so proud of that boy. Good job Diggy.

I threw off my Redskins hat after the punt return and didn't put it back on until the game was officially over.

My family says its kind of mean but, saturday night's during football season my husband gets NONE!:nono: And I dont watch the game or go to fed-ex field with him. He's a cowgirl fan.:vomit:

HTTR!!!!!!!
