a few things:
he's right to call out the fans on this one... i am a fan of a lot of sports teams, and redskins fans are the most fickle, fair-weather, sky-is-falling, x player isn't good enough for this team, i'm smarter than guys who have been in this business for 30 years group of fans i've ever seen... reading forums and talking to people around town, and i am often aghast at the things people say about our team... often times, i am like, "do you even like the redskins?"...
look, this isn't the 80s... i wish it was (and not just because i love a good mustache)... this is our team, now -- let's act like it... does that mean that we shouldn't question, get frustrated, etc? no... but, who really boos a team when they win?!
when we all looked at the schedule, most of us realistically had a loss in new york and a win in this game... and it's turned out like we all thought... relax... sure, i would have liked to blow these guys out... but, we won... this is the nfl... as bad as a team is, any team can beat any team any given week... see this same match-up last season, for example...
on the bright side, the things we were most worried about going into the season have been some of our strengths -- campbell, kelly, ARE and the o-line have played very well... and play-calling, which has been atrocious for the last 10 games or so, is the easiest thing to change out of our weak spots...
henson is going to be a decent player... i saw quite a few of his college games and he's got talent... i don't blame him at all and i couldn't believe they were getting booed at the end... if portis, fletcher or santana had said this, we'd be applauding them for sticking up for the team...
that is all for my second post...
