The cheerleader threads I fully support. Some of these other ones, however, might fit into existing threads. Example: your last two are all about the 2008 Redskins Schedule. So I'm not sure why the articles weren't just posted in the "2008 Redskins Schedule" thread. I'm not a mod here, so my opinion doesn't really matter, but having been here for 3 years I've created 6 threads to post my 1,000+ messages. In my experience, there is almost always a thread already around that encompasses the topic I want to comment on. Just my (for whatever it's worth).

Mad props for that cheerleader thread with the pictures, though. Very nicely done.

Agreed. Or if you want to create a new thread, do something like "Is the Schedule Release Overhyped?" and then post the two articles in that thread. And present your own case for discussion.

The funny thing is with the Giants we get them on the road for the first game which is great because they really struggled at Giants stadium last year. And on top of that we play all three division opponents at home during the second half of the season, and if we're on the verge of a playoff run then the final game in SF will be a blessing. I expect the same thing I always expect, fast start, bad middle, strong finish.

I don't think we should decide which games we will win for sure because we don't know what those teams are capable of this year.. I know, we could decide based on their players and history but last few years in NFL, the history has shown us that anything is possible.. Those winnable games are not relevant.. All Redskins need to do is show up on the field and play their hearts out, that's only way we can win..

Take last year as an example, we almost lost to Arizona Cardinals, New York Jets, and there were like 5 or 6 games that we should have won including the first game against NYG and yet we lost..

Also I have noticed that when I start to guess or have some kind of expectation for Redskins to win the game - and then they lose instead, I get down really easy.. I'm sure other people feel same way.. So what I'm trying to say is it is pointless to assume which games we will win for sure and safe to assume that EVERY game will be a battle..

What I hated was losing the four games I had on the DVR! New neighbor with a remote war until Dish told us what to do, by then, too late! What a way to lose games!

The Cards was one of the two I went to at Fedex, and I really wanted to enjoy that ending again and again!
