Where is the choice in that? To like another team would be basically like wearing a swastika while dancing on my grandfather's grave. I'm not gonna do that.

I hear you loud and clear. My family raised me on B&G but it was my Grandma who took me to my first football game, and if I were to ever root for another team she would hang me up by my balls. I swear you've never heard an 87 year old woman yell obscenities at the Cowboys like this but it's just great!! I honestly now think that it wasn't so much that she liked the Skins as much as it is that she just hates Dallas.They go hand in hand either way. Puts a smile on my face every time I think about it and I'd love for us to win one more Lombardi just for The Mimi. If not she'll be on the sidelines in heaven someday watching the Washington/Dallas game with her middle finger in the air screaming "you son of a bitch!" lol.
