How depressing....

[coggs]

Hola fellas, long-time no see.

Anyways, went to the game yesterday. My little brother lives in Fredericksburg, so I made the trip down Saturday Night.

For starters, whoever designed the parking situation should be sentenced to death by Chinese Water Drip torture. What a nightmare to get back to the damn Apollo lots. Who the hell puts a church right next to the damn stadium??????

As for the game, I have never seen my team play so poorly. Couldn't even get excited about the TD return. It is one thing to lose, another to get man-handled on both sides of the ball by a 3-8 team. As for the crowd, I was amused. Some of your brethren were acting like they won the Super Bowl rather than a 5-7 team in the midst of a 5-game losing streak who is missing their 2 best defensive players (strahan and wilson).

Coggs, you must be a midget fan, and don't realize we've played without our starting RT, and for weeks now without our 2 (Count'em TWO PBler LBs), and our starting SS!

So we are at least 2 up on your "injury" excuse!

Take the loss like a man. No excuses. We flat beat the hell out of you guys. It's not our fault that your coach already tossed in the towel for the rest of the season by starting your "prized" rookie QB.

Give us some credit. We went out and dominated on all phazes. Shoot even after 7 turnovers the first time we played we still had a chance to beat you guys.


Oh, and about our wonderful stadium. It's ours, we don't "share" it with any other teams in the NFL. And don't hate on us for celebrating a win. I bet you guys were jumping for joy when you won your 4th game. By the way that was your last win for that season too....

[coggs]

check the standings, we have FIVE WINS!!!!!!!!!

Yes, the skins dominated, not denying that, but to see fans of a 4-8 team act as if they won the Super Bowl is entertaining.

You're right, backrow I did not realize your injury situation. Well, except Arrington. It was one lousy team dominating another.

Redskins_P, I'll take our prized-rookie over anything you have to look forward to in the coming years.

Fine with me. Just don't expect your team to be good for a while. I believe Eli Manning is going be good, but it's going to take some time. Maybe a couple of years.

I think we have alot to look forward to in the coming years. Our team is starting to show positive signs for the years to come. We have Portis locked in for another 7 years, and Ramsey is finally starting to show that he's maturing. Plus, we have a dominate defense that doesn't get enough credit because of our shitty record.

Nothing personal dogg, but our future look much better than yours.

Eli = Bust

I think Ade Jimoh is more of a "shutdown corner" than Eli will ever be an "elite QB."

I am seriously going to enjoy the next five years of Eli dragging the Gints into the bottom of the NFL.

LOL. That's got to be the quote of the year!

Skins fans have been saying this for the past 5 years!!!!!!! If it is not the free agents, it is the new coach who is going to change things (shoettenheimer, SPURRIER, Gibbs), now it is Portis and Ramsey? Not sure how long you have been around here, but mattyk and all the old-timers can verify I have been around off-and-on since this site was a Yahoo Club, and I have seen the hope in Redskins fans every year. When I go to see my brother I always make it a point to listed to as much sports-talk radio as I can find to hear all the skins fans' optimism.

Ade, explain to me how Eli is a bust. Note: being the top pick overall and being the future QB of a rival does not qualify as evidence that he is going to be a bust. If the Giants took Roethelliswhyismynamesodamnlongberger and Eli was 11-1 with the Steelers, you'd be saying Ben is a bust and the Giants should have taken Eli. Come on, enlighten me.

What's wrong with being optimistic? And what makes you think that Eli and Coughlin are going to turn things around in the big apple anytime soon? Please, the media will run those guys out of town before they'll ever be successful.

Why the hell wouldnt we be optomistic? I dont care who your a fan of, theres no point in being a fan if your negative about anything. I think your wrong about saying we dont have anything to look forward too, for once somthing we have to look forward to is taking place on the feild and not in the papers. We have a top 3 defense in this league. Period. I'm really excited about that, because we only have one guy who's gonna be a free agent and I think were gonna resign him. I'm excited to have that back, and they have shown me why I should be excited on the feild, every single week, without faulter. I should be excited about that.

I'm excited to have Patrick Ramsey next year. I think he showed yesterday what he CAN do. Not what hes going to do each week, but he defintley proved he has matured a little bit, and you can see that he manages games better and has a better feel for the game. I'm optomistic and excited about Clinton Portis, he's a very good running back. Now while the offense has only shown flashes, I'm still excited as hell, because I think they can put it together.

I'm not going to tell you, that the Giants dont have better days ahead, because they do, they have alot of young raw talent, mixed in with some good vets, and they are going to get better. But dont try to tell us that we arent a improving team, and have because we are.

Bust. (bu-st) n. A NFL player who is picked too high in the draft just because his brother was successful and they slept in the same bunkbeds as kids. (sentence: "Man, I can't believe that NY wasted all of those draft picks on that arrogant a-hole Eli Manning - what a freakin' bust.") See also: Ryan Leaf, Heath Shuler.

Bust. n. 2. Aka. "Rack." The upper torso region of a woman (preferably age 18-20) or your average NFL offensive lineman.

Consider yourself enlightened.

The media will run them out of town? I love how people from outside of New York think the NY media is the big evil bully who pushes around the athletes. If the MEDIA had their way, Fassell would have been fired in 1998, and Joe Torre would have never been hired. The Giants and Jets do not have the same media situation as the Mets and Yanks.

Oh, so he was the top pick only because of his name? Hmmm, I do not recall Ryan Leaf's or Heath Shuler's bunkbed-mates ever playing in the NFL. You are calling him a bust because he was picked by the Giants, end of story.

How should the crowd act during a thumping of a division rival? I guess they should have just sat on their hands and said, yeah today is great but remember we're only 4-8 now. I'm sure the blowhards in Giants stadium wouldn't get excited over a big win.

I don't care what the records are, a home crowd in that situation is always going to be pumped up, if they aren't there's a serious problem.

The Skins have been struggling mightily on offense, the fans have been waiting for a day like this all year, let us enjoy the moment, who cares what the records are.
