All this talk about Redskins fans all over the country, but you forgot that there are many Redskin fans north of the 49th. I have lived in Calgary Alberta all my life and I even drove to Seattle a few years back to watch the Skins play the Seahawks. I am planning a trip to DC this year to watch the Skins-Falcons game.

People who like the Skins have to be true fans as we have had troubles in the past, so we did not jump on the bandwagon, cause no one would do that to themselves. I have been bugged from everyone about the Heath Shuler experiment, to snyder trying to buy a championship with Brice Smith and Dieon to even this year.

I love the skins and have since 1983 when I was 7 years old.

So I just wanted to make sure you did not forget the Skins are loved outside the USA as well.

Oh and Red Sox and Yankee (Yankmee) fans suck. So tired of having the Skins being compared to those two teams cause everyone thinks we buy our teams.
