The second darkest Redskins day in the 30+ years I've rooted for this team was the day of the humiliating SB XVIII defeat (ST's passing away obviously being first). At the time, it was the largest margin of defeat in any Super Bowl game. Marcus Allen's second half run, which we've been forced to endure replays of hundreds and hundreds of times over the years, was the icing on that awful cake. Am I really among a minority of fans on this site who can actually remember that game?

Since then, my hatred for the Raiders has been virtually equal to that of the Cowboys. The fact that there have been larger margins of SB victories (including our 32 point win over the Broncos) has done nothing to lessen the hate for that team. I f*&#ing hate them, and so should every Redskins fan.

For me that Super Bowl is much like Bill Buckner's Game 6 gaffe in the 1986 World Series was for Red Sox fans...I just don't talk about it. I just bottled it up and everytime it tries to resurface I just push it back down. (Tick, tick, tick...). Problem solved (for now).

HAIL!
