Share your Christmas gifts...

[jsarno]

So what all did everyone get for Christmas?
I'm sure some can post now as they have already opened gifts.

[jsarno]

I did open 1 gift...my brother made me...it was an authentic throwback Joe Theismann jersey. It's niiiiiice. In case you didn't know, Joe is my all time favorite player, but I wouldn't buy a jersey because I wanted the real thing, not a replica, or replithentic.

This is also my 13th Redskins jersey. It never gets old!

I never understood what a "replithentic" jersey was. I just don't get it. What's the difference?

A replithentic has sown on letters and numbers but may be slightly off on colors, and the fabric is not what is worn on the field. It's made in mass quanities...authentics are very specific on what was worn on the field and unique.
Honestly, I love replithentics, because the average person has no clue it's not authentic, and they are often a 3rd of the cost, or at least half the cost.
Joe just deserved more!

I shall report back on this topic on the 25th when I get the opportunity to open mine.

I as well...but in the meantime...

A Peter Griffin Christmas

[12thMan]

Okay, so here at work everyone knows that I'm a Skins fan. In fact, there are many of us in this office. Anyway, we're exchanging gifts or whatever, and this one guy gives me a small box, rather light in weight, and it's all wrapped up. I was like what the heck is this, toilet paper or something?!
So I open the friggin box, and it's one of those official Redskins baseball caps - the kind the Gibbs wears on the sidelines, I think! I flipped, people were teasing and laughing at me, right. They were like you're worse than my kid, huh?!

It get's better. Check this out.....another buddy (same office) says he's going out to get one of these Riggo jerseys that just came out. Long story short, he walks by me and dropps this brand spankin' new Riggo jersey on my desk and says Merry Christmas, Bubba! I almost shitted ( is that a word?) on myself at that point! I did like four laps around the office.

So there you have it.

Merry Christmas, Warpathers!

I believe the word your looking for is shat. (I'm joking I have no idea)

And I would be shatting all over myself and the office too if someone gave me a Riggo jersery.

In fact, now that I think about it, I shat and shitted! Oh well.

The Riggo jersey totally caught me off guard though, because we weren't exchanging gifts. And all week he was saying how he was getting one for himself and his wife.

So I get home, rip off my neck tie and everything, right...throw on my Riggo jersey and new ball cap! I was happier than a Hog in slop!

Now I know, I mean really now, what Hog Heaven feels like!!

HTTR bitches!!!

Damn, I wish my co-workers were that courtious.

What sucks for me is that I live in "Cowboys country". Over 50% of the people that live here are Cowboys fans, and they televise every game.

We have a promotion going on for $2.50 24oz dom. beers during pro games, and all those cowboys fans become twice as obnoxious when drinking. I can hear them all the way in the back when the Cowboys score. It sucks.
I have a co-worker that is an Eagles fan, and when the opponant scores against the cowboys, we cheer. We're the only 2 people cheering in the entire restaurant.

Uggh. I lived IN Dallas for 10 years during their heyday in the nineties. It sucked bad. At least my best friend growing up was from the DC area, and he was a Redskins fan too.

Ouch, that sucks bad! That's worse than I have it.

I have never in my life been around a crew of Redskins fans. I have always been in the minority.
I was born and raised outside of Boston. I'm a huge Red Sox fan (I have an entire room dedicated to the 2004 Red Sox including autographed baseballs from every player from every position that started any game for the Sox in the series) and I'm a huge Bruins and Celtics fan. But for whatever reason, I have ALWAYS hated the Patriots. When I was a little kid the Patriots were not a part of "boston sports" so I wasn't even aware they were the home team. I just always liked the Redskins, don't know how it started, but all my life I have been a Skins fan. My excuse to this day is...Well, they are the original Boston football team! haha
I went to College (1 of the colleges) in Arkansas...another Cowboys country area. Now I live in Carlsbad, New Mexico and I hate it. So I have never had the luxury of having fans around me.
My wife and I are interested in moving to Denver. At least they have a hard core fan base that aren't the cowboys.

dude I think we are twins. I love all the same teams as you. I was born in Fairfax Va. then grew up in RI the rest of my life until now I am in MD. It was great being a skins fan in New England during high school. We ruled and the Pats sucked. When the Pats went to the 86 super bowl it was the worst I wanted to hide.
