  1. Oh cool my favorite Multiplication Rock song. Thanks, Philly.
  2. Seven sacks - did Wentz call his linemen slurs before today's game or something?! They're trying to get him killed.
  3. Good on him for jumping for the 1st down. 'Least they're still trying?
  4. Well of course the shutout ends with a safety. Sure! Why not?
  5. That...just...okay, sure, if that's what you wanna do to end the half, sure. Whatever. You're the professionals here, not me.
  6. Nevermind I broke and now I'm watching. I knew the Birds fans would invade our place but this is ridiculous.
  7. Will keep this in mind for future reference but I may just stick with the Titans-Raiders game I've got on the radio
  8. Not by much! Listening to the Raiders-Titans game on the radio and boy howdy it sure is a football game 😅
  9. Yeah, I'm not even watching the game - I live out of market and I don't have RedZone. Checking in at halftime to see the score and I know I made the right choice. Ho-lee ****.
  10. I'm 31 but I'm certain he will outlive me and will still be this franchise's principal owner when I close my eyes for good.
  11. And let's not forget there's precedence here. The actual sell-out streak started in the mid-60s when the teams sucked but the offense broke the old "Lite Brite" scoreboard at D.C. Stadium every Sunday afternoon. That offensive production changed with the Allen/Pardee years but I reckon annual playoff runs helped keep everyone's attention. If you can build a winner, at least make it fun to watch.
  12. I'd love to read a book about this team's downfall with the Monday Night Football game on Opening Day 1993 serving as a prologue. It just feels like this franchise has been beset by a uniquely baffling series of bad lucky and worse leadership and it is truly fascinating to see how unyielding its mediocrity (at best) has been over the years, including multiple owners.
  13. Bumping this because some fabulous soul uploaded (in 3 parts) the the 1993 season open at RFK. This seems to be that last glimmer of hope before everything totally went down the tubes, where they have remained for nearly 30 years.
  14. Some marvelous person uploaded this gem - the 1972 team's audio highlight reel, narrated by the late Steve Gilmartin. Along with being a fascinating insight into that tremendous season, it got me searching for similar content but it's a bit hard to come by. Apart from this reel, produced 10 years later, I can't seem to find any local radio broadcasts of games outside of the excerpts used for NFL Films highlights. Surely there's got to be a cache of radio highlights or play-by-play for this franchise - I'm sure someone kept their tapes of Sonny, Sam, and Frank calling some of the best moments of D.C. sports history.
  15. It's like seeing a relative barely holding onto life.
