These are pretty funny to scroll through so I thought it was worth the bump. Also, I know some on here may need the therapy.

I was too. I thought he had the talent to adjust but his ego and stubbornness among other things got in the way.

I was wrong about RGIII.

I was wrong about the pistol and R/O becoming a regular part of NFL offenses.

I was wrong that injury concerns arising from using RGIII as a runner as well as passer would not affect him long term.

[The sum total of what has gone wrong in the RGIII experience - RGIII's inability to protect himself/reckless style, coaches who tried to fit a square peg into a round hole, the owner's interference in the way he was managed, etc. has just been disheartening. Plenty of blame to go around on this one. It was not just RGIII and, quite frankly, I'm not even sure it was mostly RGIII.]

I was so very, very, very wrong to hope the franchise had turned the corner.

I was very wrong when I thought B. Allen was an improvement over Vinny - BA is just a different, less sleazy, kind of incompetent.

This, I was thinking Bruce would have been a big game changer. Just another Danny extension now...

I was also a Vinny supporter way back in the day.

Re: I Was Wrong When...

I was wrong when I said the Lombardi would definitely be ours in 2013. I was wrong again about it last year. I'm pretty certain I'm wrong about it this year.

Re: I Was Wrong When...

I was wrong this morning when my initial thought of hearing about a trash truck which had caught fire on 95 south; that the Redskins were moving to Richmond ala colts to Indy style.

Re: I Was Wrong When...

I was wrong when I bought a RG3 jersey.

I was wrong when I thought this franchise was worth my Sundays.

I was wrong when I thought I wouldn't like Archer. That is a funny show.

During the 7 game win streak I thought "This kid is so good even the Redskins can't screw him up"

Re: I Was Wrong When...

I was wrong when I said about RGIII, "This kid is too good to be true." (Oh wait, I was right.)

Ok, I was actually wrong when I said that London Fletcher was a true Redskin and that he should come coach when his playing days were over. He's disappointed me, first by playing longer than he should have, and now by either trashing the team or stirring up shit. Like his article yesterday saying that he thought RGIII was blindsided by the decision to start Cousins and that the Redskins mishandled his development. Even if true, exactly who are you helping with that statement? Not RGIII, and certainly not your former teammates.

Loved him on the field until the end, but I have not liked him off the field. He's the anti-Bruce Allen -- "losing off the field."

Re: I Was Wrong When...

I was wrong when I didn't jump ship to the Ravens years ago. I'm still wrong that I continue to hold fast to my fandome. Although, Saturday was fun, I was wrong to rub it in my Raven's fan wife's face. The couch is a lonely place.
