Are you going to hang in there if Harris buys this team and Bezos buys Seattle? Dude I’m stuck with this franchise until I die. I just want 1 more Super Bowl win before that happens. It’s not too much to ask after all the suffering we had. I don’t care who delivers that win. Bezos, Harris, Snyder’s kid. Whoever. Just get it done. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were a bit prickly with me a couple times long ago but it didn't cost you because that's so understandable with me being me, but you kept it in bounds. 🙂 This place is very Darwinian. 90% of participants here these days are pretty much "great ES'ers", other than in qb threads. 😈😁😛 Prickly? Me? You must have me confused with someone else. I'm pretty much ES' Miss Congeniality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just get it done. I can live with even a playoff win. I knock myself living in Florida, not going to the playoff game after the 2005 season versus Tampa. If you told me then that would be the last playoff win, I'd think you are nuts. Now I plan to go to their next playoff game no matter where it is. Oddly, I have a much better track record seeing road wins than I do home wins. I've seen some awful games at home including the Monday Night massacre and Wentz's two worst games last season. The last road loss I saw was the one versus New Orleans and even that one was close, they lost in overtime.

Spearfeather Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 (edited) Man, Josina is getting raked over the coals for that tweet. I didn't take her tweet as her thinking she was saying anything genius. More like since Snyder obviously never could get that essential part right, even more emphasis should ( we hope ) be placed on it with the new owner.

Then I went to Seattle the week after. The only playoff games I have missed in person since after Gibbs 1 was the RG3 playoff knee game because my son was just a newborn and I didn’t want to leave him alone with my wife and the Tampa wild card game because of Covid. I plan on going to as many as possible but if we actually get good it will get cost prohibitive. But for now it hasn’t been too often. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Furthermore it ties into my idea that as it stands a new owner can't come in and do nothing. Some point of this org, or multiple points are gonna need a jolt/shakeup/splash Year 1. The new owner may go after Lamar, if he’s still available when he takes over. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could be right, but I took it as a very unsubtly coded comment about how the new owner should go after Lamar. Didn’t seem vague or general to me, it very clearly imo is tied to a current QB who is available and unhappy with the market the NFL owners are allowing him to have.

That's part of my point but it somewhat snuck up on me. The last chance was the game against GB. I was at my son's football game, wearing a Redskins shirt that following weekend after that game and one of the other parents who was a Redskins fan (don't run into too many of those these days but on rare occasion I do) told me that they went to the playoff game the previous weekend. And it stuck with me i should have done the same. And pledged to myself I'd do it the next shot I got, but am still waiting for the opportunity. 😢 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I knew they would have become this rare at the time, I'd have gone. The atmosphere at FedEx for the 2000 wildcard win against Detroit was insane. I have never heard it that loud there. I went to RFK twice including the last game against the Cowboys and the FedEx atmosphere was actually awesome in comparison. We had the botched FG hold in Tampa the following week. That was a very dejecting experience. The 2016 Wild card against Green Bay was not as electric. Cousins choked it away unfortunately. Even the away games are great other than Seattle in 2007. The playoff atmosphere is nuts. If we ever do make the Super Bowl I’m going to have to take a tranquilizer or something because I can see myself having a heart issue. 😂 Hopefully the new owner gets us back on track soon. We haven’t had a game fans can attend in the playoffs since that 2016 game. 5 total since 1994. So pathetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veteranskinsfan Posted March 20, 2023 Share Posted March 20, 2023 I was in Pasadena for the Super Bowl where Riggins ran down and scored in the touchdown against Miami. The stands were rocking and rolling that game. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a new owner, I would fast track the stadium in a big way. Fedex for multiple reasons is the worst stadium experience in the NFL. They cannot let that fester. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
