ABC gives us some love...
 

At least ABC remembered that we were among the unbeatens...

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

we can ride out the disrespect card for a few games maybe. then we'll worry about... "offense" or whatever they call it.

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

anyone consider that our omission was just an error and not malfeasance? I mean it sucks that All-pro homer Joey T. didn't say anything, but still...

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

i feel that an omission, even in error form would still be categorized as malfeasance... whatever that means.

WORD OF THE DAY!

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

we're 2-0 by 3 combined points. love from the media should be the last thing on any Redskins fans' mind right now.

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

arg again, it dosen't matter how much we win by. Last year we had hella close games and we ended with a horrible record, now we are winning the close games and get no credit, we deserve as much positive respect as we got negitive respect last year, yes it is TWO games in but we don't NOT deserve respect, simple we lost close games last year and took shit all season and offseason, now we win the close games, it must balance out

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

To be fair, we had a bye this week. That's the reason they didn't mention us. The other unbeatens are 3-0, we're 2-0.

two really close games against questionable teams just isn't enough to form a new opinion, win or lose. until there's more conclusive info for this year, we inherit the reputation of 16 games last season (we won 2 close games last season too), its that simple.

we don't deserve to be called the best team in the league but we do deserve equal respect to the other undefeated teams in terms of that graphic. If i am wrong about the cheifs being listed then i don't really care that they didn't put us on the graphic but if the cheifs we on the list then i am pissed. I just think that we should be looking for some respect because both the bears and dallas have been getting good respect the past week. we beat them both, We as fans should be looking for respect because our team deserves it. If we did push the hump and are getting the extra points we need to win the game then thank you God and i understand we also won close games last year but we haven't lost a game yet this year. We are getting respect however because i haven't seen many power rankings ranking us in the bottom half of the league.

the Chiefs were listed, but their record last year, the circumstances of their two games this year (were they close? shut outs? hail mary's? QB change?), and the teams they beat all play a big part in how much 'respect' the media gives them this early in the season.

its too early and up in the air to shout 'conspiracy' just yet. as far as the media knows so far, we're still the same 6-10 team as last year.

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

It isn't a matter of RESPECT, it could have been a mistake, i mean the power rankings for espn list the texans at 0-3 and they have only played two games, a few weeks ago i think they said the skins were the 6th best defense last year and even made a point of saying it was 6th in terms of yards per game.

Espn is not just opinions, it reports news, sports news, opinions are put in just like in all news but when they are listing the undefeated teams there is no way we shouldn't be on the list. I don't care if snyder paid the refs to make us win we are still undefeated, and in a graphic like that there is no room for opinion, you are either undefeated or have been defeated, we are undefeated therefore should be on the graphic. Theismann should have said something, i haven't heard from him talking about the redskins ever since the QB switch and then picking against us when we played dallas

wasn't sure if you were talking about the thread topic or the ESPN graphic, i agree we should be on there in that case, but it's much more likely a mistake than anything intentional. I'm sure there've been tons of little omissions like this in the past but if you've seen this type of specific Redskin omission on ESPN before, then contact the NFL or the Redskins, maybe they'd have a case against ESPN on something.

True. But we still get no love.

Re: ABC gives us some love...
 

Even AL and John the Parcells ball sniffers remebered we were undefeated. I guess since we beat their man breasted boy toy they are paying us some respect. I strongly believe John Madden is madly in love with Bill Parcells.
