Actually if not for this board I would probably drop the skins, this is a nice getaway during the work week if not for a minute or two through out the day.

There is a good core group of folks on here, regardless of what the subject matter is.


There was time in my teens or early twenties if the Skins lost the 1 o'clock I would just go and sit in my room and pout or come home to my apartment. Now looking back that was lost time with my buddies, time I will never get back. I WON'T make that mistake with time with my family, if it doesn't look like a win or a game where we have a chance to win against a good team I am out and doing something else. Yesterday my wife went shopping with her mom and the baby during the game when she got back I said feel free to book an social event on Sundays this winter becasue I won't be sitting in front this TV watching the Deadskins.

I'm going to change my avatar and drink until I can't feel feelings anymore. Then I'm gonna buy me some weed, a hooker, 2 nurse outfits and post the video on youtube.

That's what I'm talking about!

Seriously, we on the board are more than just average fans; We're dedicated. I don't get all bent out of shape as much as I used to. That doesn't mean I don't get pissed. I'm just throwing suggestions out there. I'm doing those things. It's not just talk. I have tickets to the Dallas game and I'm dreading the loss. We'll all still have a good time tailgating though. When is enough enough though?

I do have this girl though. Maybe we should get married and have kids. It seems to work for everyone else.

Re: What are you going to do about it?

Like mredskins, SS, and Bdbohnzie have stated I just don't let looses effect me anymore. I have a wife, a 3 yr. old daughter, and a 24 yr. old daughter that are more important then getting upset over a football game. It did at one point but not anymore. I probably have spent $30 or skins gear over the past ten years so they are not making money off me now that I dropped my season tics a few years back.

Re: What are you going to do about it?

Great article. Danny and Vinny both suck and should take the blame for this crap they call a team. I dont just hate them now either, I have hated them their entire riegn as the as these decision making clowns have disgraced this franchise. People look at the history of the past 10 years and the god awful knee-jerk decision these 2 make. Look at the choice of coaches, the draft picks, the trading away of draft picks, the horrible free agent signings...it does start at the top NO QUESTION about it. Im in.

Re: What are you going to do about it?

I agree. How can you justify spending money on a team as worthless as this? I bought tickets to the Bucs game a month or two back but Danny Boy will get no more from me. I'm seething angry at the fact that we are this bad, but at least I haven't reached the point of not caring.

I rue the day that I do.

Re: What are you going to do about it?

I got an idea, everyone with season tickets ....give them to an opposing team fan, let our home field for once look like an away game so DS see's the fans are not happy and see what he's in for if he thinks fans are going to tolerate mediocracy and pay full price for the crap that keeps getting shoveled out of the organization.

There arent enough tampa fans that will take the tickets, even for free

Re: What are you going to do about it?

This is bullshit guys. We are redskins fans. Not everyone is a winner in this league. If you want to be a winner join the pats bandwagon. If your a true skins fan you stick with them through thick and thin. Yes we suck, yes we lossed but who cares i still believe we are the best team in the league and can still make a superbowl run. Why??? Because i was born a skins fan and will be until i die. Snyder does what we want. He buys us players that he thinks as well as we think will winn us a championship. Zorn goes for it on 4th down. This is a team for the fans by the fans. If you dont like it dont be a skins fan because we dont need you if your only gonna like them after a win. Hail to the redskins and lets look forward to this week!!!

That is the kind of logic that gets most fanatics into trouble.
It makes no sense.

This sounds more like religon than being a fan.
Not judging...cause I've been there too....still am, kinda.

I'd like to be a Skins fan without all the pain...somehow, we gotta find the solution....I think the solution is put them at a lower priority level.
You will know you do when you actually choose something else over watching the game...I am not there yet.

My point is that this comment sound more like a "faith" issue and a "core identity" of who you are and your purpose in life rather than being a fan of a football team hoping that they win more than lose...again...not judging because I see myself in that comment...I am just trying to become less extreme with my skins' needs

I'm with you. See JWsleep's post, thinking is overrated
