pez Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 When Huly and I went to the last sendoff (Eagles), we were welcomed into the main lobby where all the skins were hanging about before getting on the bus (primarily because it was just us two who showed up to send them off). When we went in, we found a sight that at least I (as a previous HS and College athlete) found odd.... All the players sittin around munchin on Popeye's chicken. Now maybe it is different for football players, but when I swam in HS, Club and College, you wanted to avoid greasy food and focus on carbs (pasta, bread, etc). Well it seemed to work at well as the next day they managed to pull out a nice win at Philadelphia.... So coach... please break out the extra-spicy and extra-crispy!!! :laugh: Don't know about you folks, but I am a very superstitious fan. I have to wear particular gear, and I have to sit a certain way, perform certain tasks, etc for us to play well. I am absolutely sure that these little quirks affect how the redskins play... What was your game ritual for the Eagles game ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CliffBattles Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Heavy carbs can be tough, too....unless, eaten the previous night or day...can really sit in your stomach. I have known marathon runners that would eat what is considered crap, for energy...McDonald's hamburgers, or other greasy stuff. I have known hockey coaches, that would give pizza to their players if the game went into overtime. They have nutrionists who would not lead them wrong, I hope. I just wonder if there was a jam at the bathroom in the locker room, before the game or at the half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What was your game ritual for the Eagles game ? They most definitely affect the way the Redskins play... All the people that dont follow rituals are the ones we have to battttttle every week in order to come out on top. If everyone follows superstitions... you get the 72 dolphins. Give them their damn popeyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saturday, I Yelled as the bus left - "knowing Huley, Pez and friends would be sending the team off in style":point2sky , from Kansas; AND I watched K-State win;) - received odd looks from my friends and family - explained the Redskin bus just left the park Sunday - Rooted AGAINST Dallas:dallasuck and Giants :gaintsuck Monday - Popeye's Chicken and red beans with rice, plus Nacho's and chesse/steak quesada's (homemade), chilled the beer, put out my Redskin yard ornamental flags and spinners - this is a CLUE for my neighborhood to know it IS/WAS for the Redskins ( - we are surrounded by Dallas pukes and KC Chief fans) - wore my Redskin outfit all day......................... Nothing will change for this game, for Pez, I too am a very superstitious fan So............"Huley will start us off right!"

Stadium-Armory Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I have a helmet that's autographed by a bunch of the defense. And a hat that's autographed by a bunch of the offense. I sat the hat on top of the helmet, next to the TV. I did that for every game this year, EXCEPT the Giants game (because I was super sick, and forgot). So, first off, I apologize for the Giants loss, it was clearly my fault. But can pretty much guarantee that we win out the remainder of our games, as I will be sure to continue this ritual.
