I'm just chock full of love today. I just feel so grateful to look at my calendar, see that it's the middle of January, and we're only now just starting to embark on the offseason.

I love this team. I love Dan Snyder for giving Gibbs all that he needs to turn the team around. Dan Snyder deserves a lot of credit, he has been a tremendous owner over the last two years. I love Gregg Williams for his passion and loyalty to the Skins, he's staying! I love all the players, from Cooley's goofy personality to the grit of the O-line and D-line to Portis's press conferences. But most of all, I LOVE Joe Gibbs. Seeing him back on the sidelines in a playoff game just does my heart right. He is a true leader, and I feel so blessed to know that he is going to be here this offseason, continuing to build on what is already a team I am in love with.

This team exceeded my expectations. I was hoping for 9-7 or 10-6 and maybe a wildcard. But to come back from 5-6 to win 5 in a row, make the playoffs, and win a playoff game, that just shows grit, determination, and good character. The 10-6 result wasn't really surprising, but the way they got there was surprising, given the state of the team last year. The way the players interact and respect one another, and the way they love their coaching staff, it just makes me feel lucky to be a part of it as a fan.

The pride in this organization is back. Hail to the Redskins!
