And then you have to go out there and not just play, but you have to win because an entire nation of Redskins fans won't accept anything less. No matter what the circumstances.
I'm glad you made this thread, to remind me that there are still some people with common sense out there.

Very true, Smoot, very true.
I'm blown away at how angry so many "fans" are about losing today. It just demonstrates an utter lack of class, thoughtfulness and perspective.
I couldn't care less about the Skins winning today from the football standpoint, I really wanted them to win for THEM. They lost a teammate and a friend, the pain of which FAR exceeds our pain at losing a hero and a football player.
I really wanted these guys to pull out a win so that they could feel like they really honored Sean. In the end it wasn't meant to be, but it just breaks my heart to those guys crying on the sidelines feeling like they let Sean down.
