paul55 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I've heard JT say some positive things about our team. I'm ok with him. He's an analist/announcer so he can critsize also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. S Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 all i can say is, the commentary was pretty lame during the skins/bengals game. I hated hearing them talk. However, Joe T. seemed like he was saying good things bout the skins overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TODD Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I don't know what you are talking about... he seems to be the only ESPN guy whoever has any faith in us. He also said during the preseason game that he thinks we will win our first four games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilmer Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I like Joey and he is most certainly a Redskin homer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nneece Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Maybe he is just trying to fein journalistic integrity. I heard Theisman talking to Riggo on Sirius the other day. He says the Redskins are going to the Superbowl! As you listen to him, he sounds totally homerific and has his rose colored glasses on for the Skins.

skinpride1 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I thought joe did a good job with the bengals game and like it or not he told it just like it was.Joe pointed out our weakness and also our good points and Ithink he is still 100% redskin.

Tommy-the-Greek Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Joey T has earned the right to say what he wants. After all, he gave up his career on the field playing for the team. He has earned the right to speak his mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 "I talked to Dan Snyder, and let me just say this Steve Spurrier will be the coach of the skins next year" next day bye bye Ole quit coach "I see no Qb contreversy Gibbs has said Patrick is his man" Ramsey throws a int "Gibbs is going to have a interesting decision on wether he should start Brunell next week" Joey is a funny man The ESPN crew is ok but I can see how many think they are one of the worst. They make every play seem like it was the greatest in the world and they fall in love with players a little much. Bang Vick cartoon is the best example.

ZoEd Posted August 21, 2005 Author Share Posted August 21, 2005 Thank you RDSKNfaithfull for the quotes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. He flips back and forth like a woman. I want him to be a homer and back the skinnies no matter whats happening on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy-the-Greek Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 I would rather have honest opinions good or bad then some blind homerism from ex-Redskins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCS Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Agreed Tommy. Hell, I've seen worse on this board just over the past week from fans than I've heard from Joe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joncevensen Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Theismen is pure Redskin and has never said anything with the intent to trash this team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
footballhenry Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Hmmm, Theisman has always been pretty fair and proskin from what I can tell. I like his analysis most of the time. Truth be told, Aikman might be the most positive Redskin analyst Ive heard the past couple seasons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mookie0720 Posted August 21, 2005 Share Posted August 21, 2005 Don't know about the rest of you but to me Theisman sounds like he played his entire career for the Cowboys. Everytime he's commentating he's dogging out the team that put his butt on the map. Wheres your loyalty Theisman? Maybe because he's being fair and reasonable, and not just completely delusional. There hasn't exactly been a lot of positive about the Skins in recent years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoEd Posted August 22, 2005 Author Share Posted August 22, 2005 Okay let me put it to you like this. I understand he is a "Sports Analyst" but way before this gig he was a Redskin. It's just hard as a fan and a long time Theisman fan to hear him say negative things about the team that we all love or we wouldn't be on here talking about it. Even when the Skins are sucking a$$ I don't talk bad about them unless it's to another true fan who can relate not hate. He is much better than most of the analysts but he's still a Redskin and it's hard to get past that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, if we're sucking A$$, then we're sucking A$$.. rather or not you're relating is beside the point, and doesn't change the fact that we're sucking A$$. Even though, JoeyT's always seemed egotistical to me, I've always found him to do a fair job of commentating when it comes to the Redskins. I'd say if anything, he's often a tad too optimistic. But that's the Redskin coming out in him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
