I downplay each game as much as possible. Try not to get too hyped about it. Friends invite me over to watch the game and I'll act real nonchalant about it "Yeah I'll see. I've got some errands to run. Might not be able to catch the game anyway" They know that 95% of the time even if I have something else to do I'll be there from start to finish to watch the game.

Then while the game is on I don't say or react to anything really. I just sit there and watch like it was nothing. On a rare occasion I'll get really animated. And at halftime I always make two phone calls. One is to anyone else who I know is watching the game and ask them what they think so far, and the other call is to someone I know couldn't possibly care about the game-my aunt for example-just to take my mind off the game for a couple of minutes

Of course being part of the Warpath now sure makes it harder not to get fired up for everything Redskins
