RedskinsFanatic Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Is it wrong to feel sick to your stomach on missing a preseason game? My girl wanted to go hiking last week and I said that I wanted to watch the 'Skins/Bills preseason game, so we did. Now she have another rare saturday off work and she wants to go to the coast (which I'm going ) as it's only right..but damn, I'm going to miss the game........do I need help on realizing this game doesn't count and to just get over it. Help my fellow fans, how do I cope? Go 'Skins! :point2sky\\ P.S. I leave in 25 days to D.C..woohoo!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooley4President Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Eh, missing a preseason game only keeps you from over-analyzing everything. I'd beat myself up over missing a regular season game, but not a preseason game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My GF took me to the Ocean for my birthday and surprised me. Little did I know the game was blacked out there so Ifinally found a sports bar (Grand Slam Grotto on route 1 in Rehobeth Beach) to watch the game. It gave us an excuse to go out to dinner and drink a few beers. I demand Redskins when they are on... Preseason or not. If by Coast, you meant East Coast, there will be someone with a dish or Comcast DC style... If not, then you can find someone on the West that will have it. Just do the research or you could find a Redskins bar wherever you are going (Which I assume is West Coast because you live in OR) Check this site out: http://www.haruth.com/WRRemoteAreas.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SonOfWashington Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Maybe for preseason, yes. Preseason or not, Redskins football is always better live. Living out here, I don't get to watch most of our games, so I download them off of tenyardtorrents.com. Great quality, and no commercials. You have to register first, though.

Godfather151981 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 I know how you feel. I'm missing next week's game because I'm going to see my other favorite team (the Orioles) play the Yankees at Camden Yards. I'll be wearing my O's gear, but listening to the Skins on the radio the entire time. Once we were playing a preseason game against the Dolphins in the early 1990's, and for whatever reason my Dad picked that night to take us all out to dinner at a fairly expensive restaurant. My parents weren't big spenders when it came to eating out, so this was rare. I brought my walkman (that's how long ago this was!) with me and listened to the game the entire time. My parents were pissed, but...what's more important right?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why you can't just watch the replay on NFL after all it is only the pre-seaon game. I am going to be in Canada next weekend - I will be making sure my Slingbox is working before I leave though. Don't like to miss any of my Skins games.

ScottAH87 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Maybe you could TiVo it or even pop a tape in the VCR? Then just avoid any news reports, if possible, and watch it when you get back... Im going on a company canoe trip, this is my plan Just don't mention that you are missing the game on the trip. Your girl will flip. "Oh so you'd rather watch a stupid game than be with me..."

That's kind of what pisses me off about "metrosexuals." Why should women go out with sports nuts like you and I when they can have a "straight guy" that's never going to tell them that they can't make it someplace because they have to watch the big game?

You could suggest that she bring her most attractive female friend with you guys to the coast, the act overly enthusiastic about this girl coming along. She will most likely cancel the trip or maybe you find yourself in a better situation the watching a preseason game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
