IONTOP Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Look, I know that a lot of people are saying that the Redskins "lacked heart" in their win, and that "we, as fans, should expect more from our team"... But let's face it. AS FANS, we weren't into this game... Why? I've got several reasons. 1) Where was the lookalike thread? Every week for at least the past couple of years, one of the greatest threads of the week was the Look-A-Like thread, where we took pictures of giants players and compared them to others. 2) Where was the Karma thread? This thread is where we say awesome things that we like about the host city... Yet again, absent... 3) Choose a cheerleader (you have to pick one) Thread - Serially, I didn't see a thread on that... Where was it? You see, those are WEEKLY threads off the top of my head that I've realized we missed... Now I'm not saying that those alone made us lose, but not having those threads definitely contributed. So, I challenge all members of ES to deliver (myself included), we cannot WAIT for these threads to be created, because people's schedules may get in the way and not allow them to be created. What do YOU do to help your team win? (If these threads were created, they were buried or lacked enough posts to get them to stay at the top, that falls on all of US to pick up the slack) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bishtw Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 I started the look a like thread and the Karma/Krama thread myself. I do agree it is ES fault tho, one of the mods merged the Karma/Krama thread in the random thought thread thus put all the good karma in the dead zone. http://www.extremeskins.com/showthread.php?t=294847&page=66 post #989 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stophovr6 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 every thread is merged eventually. Looks like it was merged shortly before game time. I think it might save them some time to just lock it, but whatevs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nace14 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 unfortunately, i have to agree with ion that the postings have been rather pedestrian over the past year or so. the originality in the posts seems to be gone and the creative spark seems to be fading. it all seemed to start that one fateful day when the daily babe thread was threatened to be taken away for content reasons... :-( this used to be a board of extreme fans who were too extreme to acknowledge that the team might actually not be the greatest team ever assembled. recently though, it seems that there has been an influx of realism, and i for one will not tolerate it anymore. i will proclaim that we are the greatest team ever; i will stand by the fact that heyer is a better right tackle than oher; i will blindly profess moss, kelly, el, and thomas the four horsemen of the apocalypse....i may be wrong on everything i say, but my heart will be where it belongs....blind, foolish optimism. when love of your team becomes extreme. whose with me?!?!?!?!

skinfan133 Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 ok bro, this is ridiculous. First of all, superstition is stupid, especially this sort of superstition, because it obviously doesn't work. have we been to the super bowl because of these threads yet? have we gone 16-0? nope. the only people to blame for the loss are the players and Zorn. period. fyi we did have a look-alike thread.

Birdlives Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 You want bad karma? We're 2-7 against the giants since the creation of the "fun with Eli's drunk pic" Thread. At this point its time for that thread to die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
