For the life of me, I don't understand why a 4-12 team has so many goddamn prime time games.
Let's hope we look better in prime time than last year's national embarrassment.

^ Yeah, that's one of the things I don't like about them -- we usually look like crap.
That and the fact that I'm guaranteed not to get any sleep those nights. Plus I hate waiting all day for the Sunday night games, or all weekend for Monday nights.
F primetime games.

Seeing some of the top offenses on the schedule makes a pick like -Berry,McClain,Graham or Haden even more of a need imo.

Always lots of hype surrounding the Skins, this offseason being no exception

What weekend does this season start? Anyone know? I am already getting hit with family obligations. Seriously I ask for 17 Sundays a year to enjoy football and everyone and their mother has to book some family outing during on those days, so annoying!
Its because you pussy foot around and let them think that its Ok to plan stuff durn the game. Its so easy to tell them just pull up the skins schedule and you can plan things around that. The last thing that my family planned durn a Skins game was my grandfathers funeral which of course that a different story. So if they are smart they will use the weekends of primetime games and the bye weekend to plan family events. Its not that hard and if someone tries to plan something I tell them I have obligations that day and I've had them planned for 5 months.
I actually pissed off my mother and father in law once because they came over unannounced and got offended because I was in the middle of watching a football game. When I approached him latter he said they felt like I ignored them so I responded like this. Sorry if you felt that way but next time I will cut off the game after I have been watching it for 2 1/2 hours so we can chat. He then realized how stupid he sounded.

It looks like the 1st half of the season is easier then the 2nd half. If the team can go 5-3 before the break, we can have some genuine optimism for the remainder of the year.
We have a tougher home schedule then away this year, which is also good. Time to establish a Home field advantage. 5-3 at home should get us into the playoffs, I hope.

We should be 6-2 at home. We need to leaarn how to win at Fed-Ex. I beleive shanny will get it done. One thing I always notice at home games:
When the away team takes the field after the half many times they score. I blame it on us not being in our seats screaming for the D. We have to do our parts as well.

If we go 6-2 at Home this year, then we can plan on Hosting a Playoff Game.

Famous last words going into last season's schedule. Couldn't have had it any easier than we did for the first 8 games last year
