With the Bears beating the Falcons, the path to the playoffs for the ‘Skins is simple to explain: win and they’re in. If the Redskins win their next two games (Giants, Eagles)… they’re in. Frankly, if they can’t beat our division foes at home in December they aren’t playoff material anyway. Time to Cowboy up.
Pray.
I just sit back in amazement and watch my home town Seahawks win all kinds of ways (except that second game of the season against the Skins where the field post got in the way of the win…argh…).
I also like next weeks Hawks Colts matchup here in Seattle now that Peyton has a loss…talk about praying for a superbowl preview!
Pray harder.
Remember the Halloween massacre:
Giants 36
Redskins 0
uh…”Cowboy up”?
Maybe there’s a better way to say that, given the drubbing the ‘Skins just laid on the Cowboys.
Frankly, if they can t beat our division foes at home in December …
Minor point: The Iggles game will be in Philly. But surely the Skins can whip them on the road, right?
Don’t forget, the Vikings lost yeterday, which also boosts the playoff hopes for the ’skins
As much as I hate the Cowboys, I think a win over the Giants would be even sweeter.
From my experience when one visits a sportsbar there are no fans louder and more obnoxious than Giants fans.
(if you are a giants fan and are not loud nor obnoxious please don’t take this personally … that’s to all three of you)
to shut them up would be almost as good as making it to the playoffs.
The Skins will be no match for Tiki. Giants clinch next week.
And just to add on to what i said, during the 2003 season the Eagles played at Miami on a Monday night, and something like 15,000 Eagles fans went down there for the game.
Well, my fiances best friend and four of her girlfriends went down there, not so much for the game although they did go to it, but moreso just because the Eagles playing there gave them an excuse to spend four days in South Beach.
Well, they said after the first night, they stopped wearing anything Eagles when they went out the rest of their time there because they were so embarrassed by the way Eagles fans were acting, they didn’t wanna be associated with them.
In addition, a flight from philly to Miami had to be diverted to Atlatna because the flight crew couldnt’ get these idiots to stop doing the E-A-G-L-E-S chant on the plane.
I mean, it’’s post 9-11 and these assholes can’t even behave for two hours on an airplane.
b,
You really need to go to an Eagles game if you think Giants fans are the most obnoxious, and i say that as someone from Philly and a big Eagles fan.
If anything, Jets fans are ten times worse than Giants fans. I went to an Eagle/Giants game at the Meadowlands about four years ago and couldn’t believe how A) quiet and B) old the crowd was.
Loud, obnoxious folks from Jersey?
Who woulda guessed?
There are no more obnoxious fans than Raider fans. However, Kansas City Chefs fans are genuine idiots too, if they aren’t as deliberately “shocking” as Raider fans.
Most obnoxious fans at Giant games:
1) Iggles. Not even close. They pelted Santa Clause (in Philly, to be sure) with snowballs, fer chrissakes
2) Jets. There is an air of desperation about Jet fans that makes their behavior that much more pathetic, especially when they play the Jints. It’s also pretty funny when a Giant-Jet game is designated as a Jet home game…there is the irony of playing at “home” against a team who has the freakin’ stadium named after them.
3) ‘Boys. Mainly because most Cowboy fans at Giant games are tri-staters who jumped on the bandwagon in the 90s.
4) 49ers. The most obnoxious fans in the league as far as being conceited. I think the term “limousine liberal” originated with someone attending a 49er game.
I’d say something about the Skins, but haven’t seen too many recently. I believe they are on the endangered species list.
Wait a second — Gaints fans assoles? No way ……
This Iggles fan is proud of the fact that we fired the first salvo in the war against the secular Xmas of Santa Claus, albeit with only snowballs. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/football/nfl/eagles/2003-11-27-santa-snowballs_x.htm
After all, everyone knows it was Jesus F. Christ who invented Xmas.
i actually wasn’t referring to those who go to the games, but the crowds in the sportsbars. maybe i shouldn’t have said the most obnoxious, but i still say they are the loudest, here in miami at least – which pisses me off because i hate the giants.
(that story of the philly fans on the plane though is fucked up – i mean get a life)
