A prayer to the injury football gods

paulskinsfan · 10-24-2005, 01:07 PM

Dear football gods, thanks for the Dallas win. I know I promised you that if we somehow won that game, that I would not ask you for anything else all season. I know that I told you that if we could just beat those damn Cowboys, on that one occassion, that I would not bitch and moan about another football related game all year. Ive kept my end of the bargain. We are now 7 weeks into the season, and Im happy with how my team has done irregardless of how we end the season. SOOOOO, technically, Im really not asking for anything, and I thank you for smiling upon my beloved Skins. But, if you are feeling generous, I will ask for one thing, and its not a win: Please, Please, Please keep the Skins injury free. We are as thin as wet toilet paper at certain positions (offensive line) and, well, we don't use the best judgment sometimes (Moss in as punt returner for ANY game is DUMB, DUMB, DUMB). If we lose Moss, we are in big, big trouble. If we lose any of our offensive lineman, its gonna really hurt our offense. So, football gods, my only small request is that the Skins stay relatively healthy as a team, and if that occurrs the rest will fall into place. Thanks for listening.

Shhhhh,. don't wake them up, they may have forgotten all about us.....

Riggo44 · 10-24-2005, 03:04 PM

amen to that!

SKINSFAN-Purpleland · 10-24-2005, 03:18 PM

Well said father

CrazyCanuck · 10-24-2005, 03:20 PM

Amen.

I cringe every time Santana goes back to field a punt. What's the point???

kingerock · 10-24-2005, 05:09 PM

I think the point is field position. Having said that, I think Thrash would be the likely candidate or put Jacobs back there so he is accomplishing something.

oh yeah, and Amen

railcon56 · 10-24-2005, 06:36 PM

Wow .. My respect level for you guys went way up after seeing all the AMEN'S!!!!!!

ladyfan06 · 10-24-2005, 11:35 PM

Hallelujah....let the "chuuch" say Amen!

htownskinfan · 10-24-2005, 11:49 PM

Sociofan · 10-25-2005, 12:18 AM

we definitely had this bite us in the ass today. I'm just glad Cooley is ok cuz that play was an eery reminder of the injury that ended the career of the best pure athlete I've ever seen in Bo Jackson
