veleno45 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 http://www.stampedeblue.com/2010/9/6/1672400/happy-labor-day-some-praise-for I was semi-surprised to read this. Are we that bad as fans? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terrifNick21 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 "But, whatever. I'm not here to bash the utterly useless and irrelevant Washington Redskins, who haven't won a playoff game in 11 years." Article = trash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Sinister Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I stopped reading after the writers hatred started to show. Clearly we've won a playoff game in the last eleven years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terpskins10 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 The general incompetence of Shanahan "has a personal man"? Didn't know incompetence could have their own personal man. Who woulda thunk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enter Apotheosis Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Article = trash. "Sorry Skins fans, but when your team has only one playoff victory in 17 years, and that win was against the friggin Detroit Lions" Seconded. :doh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoodOnPaper Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I stopped reading after the writers hatred started to show. Clearly we've won a playoff game in the last eleven years. Tampa in 2005, to be exact. Nice of him to fact check, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Not sure what you're asking here when you say "are we that bad as fans"... And this guy who wrote the article is one of those guys who is so disconnected from the reality of the Redskins that he claims the Skins have won only 1 playoff game in the last 17 years (or whatever number he mentions). Guys like that automatically lose my respect when they can't even get a simple and obvious fact like that correct...it's more them going off their memory and fan perception than actual facts to help bolster their opinions.

SMOSS89 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 As soon as he didn't mention the playoff victory against the Bucs in '05, his credibility went down the drain. Also sounds a bit bitter about the 'East Coast Bias'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkinsTerps26 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 But, whatever. I'm not here to bash the utterly useless and irrelevant Washington Redskins, who haven't won a playoff game in 11 years. If they want to trade away promising young players to the Colts just so they can give scrubs like Phillip Buchanon more playing time, I'm not going to complain. Fleecing idiots like Shanahan and Allen is what Polian does best. This makes no sense, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blindlywewander Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 wow- really shows the quality of writer at that place. how the hell did the editor let that **** get on the internet? no fact checking. nothing besides a rant and two quotes. that guy thinks because he can type 1000 words of his own opinion that he's some type of writer. well, i suppose he is a 'type'. the type that deserves a tomahawk to the jugular.

Hailskins94 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 How many playoff games have the colts won without Peyton Manning??? Completely irrelevant argument, and shows that whoever wrote that article knows nothing. I guess they have the next Reivis on their hands.... Also winning a playoff game in 2005 was 11 years ago? What kind of ****amamie publication lets this article out???? Just shows any moron can write anything on the internet these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

warriorz Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 ***Haha, its funny when bloggers have vendettas...*** This guy can go to hell. But he may be right about Tryon turning into a gem. Or maybe he was a gem the whole time and we missed it. Either way, whatever...what's done is done. I want Barnes to Excel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zhouse Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 pretty sad for a professional writer to be so classless. But let's not act like the 1 playoffs in 17 years is wayyyy off. Okay 2....does that make it better? In any case we shall see how Tryon works out for them. I always liked the kid. I thought he was serviceable. Nothing so far had shown me he was starting material but he wasn't as bad as we "extremeskins" made him out to be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But let's not act like the 1 playoffs in 17 years is wayyyy off. Okay 2....does that make it better? It's not about whether two playoff wins in 17 years is "better" than 1 playoff win in 17 years...it's that someone is basing their ridicule of an NFL team on his perceptions and flawed memory instead of facts. It's not like it's a typo or something. To me it says he doesn't know enough factually about the Redskins to be bashing them the way he is(was). And I don't think the guy is a professional...not unless they're now paying mindless internet blowhards on message boards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
