Game time.  

Fill in the blanks below & let's see who gets it right. The winner gets a cheerleader (wait, do we still even have those?)  out of petty cash. 

Alright. Ok then...

A~hem...

The winner will get a 1 on 1 Skype counseling call with @Jumbo. Wait. ****! He can barely type, there's no way he'll be able to figure out Skype.....  

I got it. 

Bragging rights. 

The winner will receive BRAGGING RIGHTS. 

What? That's not enough? Fine. I'll throw in a bonus. However, you're really gonna have to work for it.  

Call the entire Draft for the WFT before the Draft starts. Anything submitted after the start of the Draft will be disqualified.

*In the event of multiple correct predictions, the winner will be based on earliest time/date stamp.

Last year the Redskins home opener was 57,013 which was roughly 20,000 empty seats. And the Redskins had a 1-0 record

Two years ago, home opener attendance was announced as 78,658. 

This Sunday, the Redskins have their home opener in a Week 2 Divisional matchup against the 1-0 Dallas Cowboys. 

Cast your vote now & feel free to discuss below. 

Poll closes at Kickoff.

This is simple. They can't even manage to tp the team hotel correctly. 

One strand. Are you kidding me? And it looks like they even used paper towels instead of toilet paper. Clearly Screaming A called the wrong fan base losers.

The Redskins have opened their 2019 season with two losses. Both against Divisional foes. Now they get to close out Week 3 at home on Monday Night against the visiting 1-1 Chicago Bears. The Bears don't have much of an offense but seem to have what may be an elite defense.

On the flip side, the Redskins have a developing passing attack and a disastrous defense. The Redskins haven't had a Defense this vanilla since Mike Nolan received his ice cream. Oh, and the Redskins already have more guys on IR then any other team this season. 

Will the Redskins finally put one in the win column? 

As usual, poll closes at kickoff. Go vote!
