skinsarethebest Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Three of the DC area sports teams have been, no delicate way to put this, completely ABYSMAL in the last 12 months. Which pains you most and why? For me it's the Skins b/c they're the team I am most fervent about, but beyond that, it's the fact that there's so much complete uncertainty about where things go from here for the Skins organization. I think everyone agrees serious rebuilding is needed, but even that's not going to be an easy task. No one can agree who the next HC should be, no one seems confident which way we should go with our draft picks (assuming we haven't somehow squandered them by April). At least the Nats are young, seem to have hit the draft lottery with Strasbourg, and are only going to get better. We can only keep our fingers crossed for the Wiz. Though they too, like the Skins, seem to have boxed themselves into a corner with poor spending of cap money. But for us Skins fans, it seems like nothing, not even upward progress, can be taken for granted. Other than that there will be massive turnover, perhaps even as early as this week. But as to the results, who knows? Have we actually learned anything at all these last four weeks, or two years for that matter? And who has any confidence that we'll get it right in terms of decision making for the future in 2010? I hope someone can give me a valid reason to believe we actually have a brighter future than the Nats or the Wiz (other than our deep-pocketed owner) b/c right now doesn't look so good.

Hunter_R Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 When will the Redskins be the best team in the DC area? Quoth the Ravens, "Nevermore!" Also, I couldn't give a crap about the Senators or Wizards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheDoyler23 Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Wiz had serious injury issues and the Nats were expected to and accomplished zilch. You'd be hard pressed to pick anything but the Skins in this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinsarethebest Posted October 19, 2009 Author Share Posted October 19, 2009 And I'm not even a "bash Snyderatto" proponent. I actually happen to think they've tried to put together what they believed would give us the best chance to win, so who can really fault them for that? But frankly I feel this organization has run out of options. The well of tricks seems to have run completely dry at this point. Hiring Shanahan/Gruden/Holmgren whomever for next year will still not make us competitive for at least 2-3 years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgiaredskin Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Redskins, D.C is a football city, always has and always will be. Amen. Plus, the Skins are my heart. The Orioles (my other team) are sucking, too. But it just isn't the same. Because my blood is burgundy and gold, not orange and black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ixcuincle Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Skins. Nats too irrelevant for anyone to be angry about their suckage, and Wizards not mainstream enough. This is a football town. If the team sucks the fans will be irate. It's the worst suckage out of all of the options listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hitman21ST Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 Ghost bumps are the worst suckage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
