I can understand how you feel, and it is unfair. I'm 31 and my first memories include their 1st champoinship and then continue with the greatest time in redskins history. It's almost hard to believe how far we've fallen. I wonder if danny boy has seen that?...so he can fully understand what he has done to this once proud organization.

I was 3 when all that went down. I somewhat remember my Pops being excited about football but have no real FOOTBALL memories.

MY football memories are draft pick busts, college coaches inserting Danny Woeful as the starter, Neon Deion in B and G....etc.

My most memorable season was 2005. That 5 game run was alotta fun.I remember jumping for joy when we beat San Fran in OT for the division crown but I was living in San Antonio so the 1999 season I was a very disconnected 11 year old.

I'm simply gunna endure these craptastic years and cry my eyes out when we put it all together and win the Bowl.

That's exactly my attitude. I WILL shed tears when we finally win,whenever that will be.

I don't think we'll ever see a Skins team like that again in my lifetime. Dominant in all phases of the game. The Snyder/Cerrator era have problems trying to be mediocre for a season or two, those teams were dominate for a decade when the NFC East was the true powerhouse of the NFL.

My first memories was the 87 Super Bowl year and I was INSANELY happy for the 91 Super Bowl year. Still have an official Super Bowl XXVI shirt at home and LOVE IT. I feel for younger fans who only can really get excited about 1999,2005, and the bittersweet 2007 season. I really think the problem is Snyder thinks he alone can turn the Skins around and will keep doing things his way so he can take all the credit IF it ever works. ( signs point to no)

Herzog: TD WASHINGTON REDSKINS!!!

Oh man. I cant take it. but I love it. :helmet:

I used to listen to the games on the radio and every time that man spoke redskins had made a play.

And the way he said that line it was like he was tired of saying and knew he would likley say it again before the game was over :D

How far we have fallen.

We no longer build. It always has to be now. It also was before the salary cap so you could build and hide guys.

I miss those years so much. It felt like we would always win. Never did I imagine we would go so long and win so little.

I dont kno if ur jokin or serious but I honestly think it might provide even a little spark for them

At this point, nothing can hurt.

Even through all the mediocrity, I never thought of our team as a bunch of players who don't play hard and give up at the first sign of adversity.

Watching Moss lazily run routes, D'Lo's soft tackling, Haynesworth's royal out of shape butt makes me realize the extent to which Snyder's trying to buy a championship every year has ruined this franchise. Year after year, we have less and less of those intense leaders on our team and it's now dwindled down to just one, IMO (Fletcher).

This team is in need of a giant rebuilding process, and while a lot of the reason that isn't occurring is the fans wanting instant results, the owner needs to make the decision to hit the red button. Look at some of the best teams in the NFL today. More than half of them were awful at some point in the last 5-7 years, took some time to stock draft picks, hire good personnel men and enthusiastic coaches, and re-build from the ground up. Teams like San Diego, Pittsburgh, New Orleans, Baltimore (yech), you name it come to mind.

My fear is that those days will never come. I know I'm willing to endure those years of pain and struggle if I know it would lead to being a consistently great franchise like Pittsburgh or San Diego that has a chance at a ring ever year. Are you?

What we are sitting on today is the NFL's oldest, least motivated and united, and most overpaid roster. Something has got to give, and that something is restocking from the ground up. I know it's going to suck and I know there are still people out there that just KNOW we're only "one player away". We aren't, and won't be for quite some time. Let's bite the bullet and do this rebuilding thing and let's get back our franchise's deeply-rooted tradition.
