Exactly what's so serious about it? Again, the drunks at the stadium pose more of a threat than any terrorist, but you don't hear the media talking about that. Probably because the alcohol companies are pumping their pockets full of cash to advertise their products. I'm willing to bet you good money that a good portion of people (that drink before/during game) are legally drunk when they drive home. Yet we are supposed to worry about the bogey man from across the seas trying to take our way of life away? Puuuhlease.
take it from someone that has been overseas, fought them and seen the fanaticism of these people.......do not take them for granted. they have the financial means and the hatred to pull off what we may think is impossible. dont underrate these guys. ive dealt with them firsthand and they are no idiots. maybe in their ideology and beliefs, but not tactics.
like was said before, enjoy life, get out there! just be a little extra vigilant and aware!

Getting back to the game,the preseason gave me reason for hope but Im not getting my hopes up too high.To almost qoute Allen Iverson,its preseason man,preseason.I havent seen any of the so called experts pick us to win this game or even hit 8 wins this yr.I dont know if were blinded by being fans or theyre just going by what they saw last year.If we do not beat the Giants it doesnt bode well for the rest of the season.They have so many injuries we dont have any excuses for not winning this game

NC_Skins - been looking all over ever since I got here, but you're right... no WMD so far :cheeky-sm
Keep safe my good man while you are out there, and hopefully the idiots running this country bring you guys home soon. /salute
Until then, go Skins!!

Expert's Take: Redskins vs. Giants | John Keim | NFL | Washington Examiner (http://washingtonexaminer.com/blogs/nfl/2011/09/experts-take-redskins-vs-giants#ixzz1XY9z5aSN)
The following analysis from Matt Bowen might do the redskins well.
On attacking their defense: “If I was Mike Shanahan, I’d use a lot of three receiver sets. I’d force them to bring a nickelback on the field, see what kind of depth they’ve got and you can run the ball out of that, too. And I’d take a deep shot really early in the game, in the first three plays. I’d want to let them know we’re going to test the secondary all day.”

Agree about not getting hopes up too high...but I would say that half of the 10 ESPN guys who make weekly picks have chosen the Redskins to win this weekend and Jaws has us in the playoffs...and I agree about no excuses

Especially since they're thin at the corner and d end positions.

And also considering that the redskins also have some wideouts that run block well.

I tend to have more fun if I believe. I know that probably sounds really corny, and that attitude gets me crushed time after time....but when we win - I feel like a guy who went to visit his wife every day in the hospital who was in a comma and she finally woke up!
