Family

phoenixredskin · 09-30-2006, 10:55 AM

Here's the thing. If you are a Skin from the genesis or new. You must stop now and ask yourself a question. Are you a Redskin? If you have to ask yourself what does that mean, then you are not! Redskins are a family, community, and friendship for life. Take 28, Green, for example, of the United Way

, 20 years, one team. If you have another favorite team then you are not a Redskin.

Secondly, being part of our family is a priviledge. Just in case you did not realize Brunell's record last week % wise barely past Sammy's % ratio at 88%, barely....

Do not dress in our colors unless you are in for the eternal haul.

Does being a member of the family come with some privileges? Can I borrow money from one of the more wealthy family members?

It's just football man...entertainment and a hell of a way to kill time.

The problem with this analogy is that (much like Chris Cooley) I have some very impure thoughts about some of my family members (wait, Cooley did more than just think about it).

Is that Cooley's broad? Well, there's your lack of focus. He's thinking of another f-word.

Kill time? You need a Psych, if uhh....anyhow you missed the community part of it, we do not borrow, we share. Get off your lazy bum and go to work if you are in need to borrow. You missed the entire point, being a Redskin means much more than football. For example: Darrell Green. 20 years + dedication to the United Way. An ole' Skin holds the key to entering Skinsland. Vince Lombardi, if you ever heard of him. "Entertainment", is for the dallas cowboys and san fran 9er's. I hope you don't wake up in the parking lot in Landover sunday.

"Entertainment" wtf and stf

I'm not here to argue with you... you're buying this whole "we are one family" thing but I'm gonna tell you the truth. The cold truth... and that is that we aren't really family, we are consumers who like consuming Redskin football every weekend. We spend our hard earned dollars to be entertained whether at FedEx field or the sports bar next door. We watch because we want to be be Entertained, both in the good times and the bad times. To have bragging rights over fans of others teams. Some of us to make money by wagering on them.

Every time you watch the Redskins you better believe Mr. Snyder's accountants are counting the dough. The Redskins are what they are, a sports team that's in the Entertainment business.

I hate it when people use words like family, love, friend, etc loosely. It diminish the real value of the words. We have something common but that doesn't make us family. And if all we have in common is the Redskins you are at best an acquaintance.

You are outrageous! Have you ever hugged your Mother, Brother, Father, Sister, wife or girlfriend with elation when the Skins score? How about somebody who has had you over to their house as a guest? If you did not hit the roof last year when Brunell hit Moss, twice, yes twice....if you did not go kiss your dog too, then you have alot to learn. You are not yet part of the family. You are young, you will learn.

Kiss your dog??? I gotta side with Saden1 here. I like his posts, he seems like a pretty cool guy. And maybe one day I'll get to meet him and we'll grab a drink and talk Redskins. But I don't think we have some unbreakable bond because we both cheer when the Redskins win.

That Guy · 10-01-2006, 02:36 AM

If i needed help, a majority of skins fans (that i don't know) would turn me down or let me know it's not their problem.

so i don't really see how that's family-like.

What do you do when the Skins lose? Nobody in the bar likes you anyway, and almost all are happy to see the Skins lose. You have never gone home and given your dog a hug? Primarily because your dog does not know one thing about football but can sense all of your physiology. By the way I've made some life long; according to you: "friends", "love"d ones just by being a Redskin. Hopefully some day you will get it, or Lord help us and deliver you eternally to dallas.
