Hmm. Let's see what kind of fan you really are. What concert are you skipping?

I love how aggressive the Skins' were. Seriously. They just kept piling it on and didn't quit just because they were ahead.

That's what makes this place so entertaining.:laugh:

:party: :dj: TOUCHDOWN STEPHEN DAVIS!!! :point2sky

This is surreal. 10,000 fans were really stuck in traffic because of a suicide attempt on a bridge?

..and there's Zorn going over things with Gus. Didn't like that first drive, did he? LMAO.

I'm watching the Redskins/Lions Wild Card game from 2000. Never seen this one before. Love how Gus gets sacked on the first play.

Yeah. But I can understand why an NFL player would drink that stuff. Replaces electrolytes like crazy.

That's only the beginning. My takeover of the Tailgate didn't go over so well. I don't plan to make the same mistakes here in the Stadium.:evilg:

The next tropical system in the Atlantic will be named "Danny".

Today is Colt Brennan's birthday according to Chase Daniel.

No team could ever have less character than the Pukes.

Always. I think the Redskins went undefeated in preseason Spurrier's first year. You know how that turned out. I think they lost all the preseason games in 1991..

I think it's way too early to be ranking any teams.

Yes to the offensive lineman and no to the QB.

Sigh. LOL. I doubt it. They'll find someone to snap it.

We were completely overwhelmed in every aspect last year the first time we played the Giants. Actually, we were overwhelmed both times! Why didn't we learn the lessons from week one last year?

Maybe the coaches already know something we don't. Reality is that one of our QB's is going to get cut. Will it be Colt or Chase? My money is on Chase.

In the case of JC, I think that might have something to do with the lack of trust in his offensive line. Or, he might be trying to get the ball out quicker and maybe he was going too fast. Good point, though. Brennan looked very uncomfortable back there for some reason.

I think the thing that most people don't realize is that pre-season is just glorified practice, really. Sure, you want to see the team look good but if the coaches have certain things they need to evaluate, you might not get a lot of razzle dazzle from the team. Our first stringers did well for the five minutes or so that they played. I saw enough to be encouraged. This won't be a disaster of a year. Or, if it is, no way you can tell that by the first preseason game. All of the "sky is falling, we're doomed" crap is getting kind of old.

That's why I'm hoping it can catch on. The Stadium is great. We just get a lot of knee jerk reactions during the season. Offseason isn't so bad.

You're telling me. It was a very, very long offseason for some reason. That feeling is in the air again. I love it.

Good afternoon, ES. Maybe we should try something new. I don't know if it will catch on for everyone but it might help with some of the knee jerk reaction threads we seem to get in the Stadium from time to time. Mods.. if this gets abused or you think it's a bad idea, go ahead and close it on up. In The Tailgate, we have a thread for seemingly random thoughts about anything. http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?t=145477 What if we tried that here but it could be for football stuff ONLY? For example.. instead of starting a thread because you think JC sucks (imagine that! ), you could simply post your thought here. A few things that I think should be different from the Tailgate's counterpart. 1. Don't use this just to raise your post count. I know there are some out there who seem to think that a higher post count is like some kind of award. It's not. So if you're posting a hundred random thoughts a day, that's probably abuse. 2. Make sure that your "thought" is about football (Redskins related) only. General football discussion is good! 3. Debating is fine. Just try not to hijack too much. If someone has a thought about JC, don't make the next eight pages of the thread about that one post. 4. Normal board rules still apply (duh!). No spam. It's nasty. Anyway.. let's see how it goes.

Almost had a heart attack. It's on CSN in Roanoke.... whew

Ummm.. I'm in Roanoke.. where the heck is the game?
