  1. Touchdown!!!! Harris comes across as a bit awkward ….but still love the guy.
  2. Your pessimism is probably warranted. Rivera has proven to be a mediocre coach. An untested QB. Issues with the oline. A tough schedule in maybe the best division in the league. But who cares? Synder will be gone. The games will be more enjoyable - even if they finish 0-17. The food will taste better. The beers will be more refreshing. It's our honeymoon period!
  3. I first became a fan in 1973. I was a die hard fan who lived and breathed everything Redskins. Losses weren't just losses - they were personal slaps in the face. It would take me until Tuesday to get over a loss. In the first 5 years of Synder's ownership, I gave him the benefit of the doubt. He did things that I would do- sign every over the hill free agent, for example. But it became apparent to me - early on- that his ownership was an impediment to the success of the team. Individuals on here mocked me for starting to critique the team and its owner. I was called a fair- weathered fan. At least he was willing to spend money. He's learning. We just need a QB. We just need a good coach. And so on. There was always an excuse - but Synder didn't get the blame, at least early on. The last few years, I got to the point of actively rooting against this team. I was on here cheering an opponents TD. I never thought Synder would actually sell. I made peace that wasnington would never win another Super Bowl in my life. And now it's happened. I feel liberated. I feel like a kid again. Screw the name. The essence of this team can return if the new owner gets this right. He can win back the fan base again. Not by winning - at least not right away. By talking to the fans. By doing what's best for the TEAM. Knowing you don't have all the answers- and hiring the people that do. I'm pushing all my chips back in. I'm reborn. I can't wait for September.
