TerpsEagles Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Just curious if you like having your team play on MNF or don't care for it...... ? For me, I like being the only game and watched by the nation.... and the build up to the game is good..... but personally... i much prefer a Sunday game........ It sucks going all Sunday watching all the other games and not being able to get jacked up about your team..... FFL helps a lot and puts a lot more interest on other games ..... then you have to go BACK to work for a day or partial day before getting to see your game..... ugh... the worst is Tuesday morning...... not that Monday morning can't suck after getting toasty on Sunday buuuuuuut just curious what your feelings are..... MNF - yeah or ney ? peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skip to my lou Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 The waiting is indeed the hardest part. Bonus this weekend as I'm going to Dover for NASCAR so won't miss the Skins. But after the race there's only one thing to think about...... It's DALLAS Week :wewantd: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

codeorama Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Originally posted by Henry I like the honor, but the Redskins historically play like crap on Monday nights. Totally agree. I like the fact that I can watch all the other games on Sunday as well. I'd prefer if the Skins played late every week so I could watch other games.

Matador36 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I hate the wait! but as long as we beat Dallas it's ok. Are they showing the giants or eagles games on Sunday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DieselPwr44 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I hate the Redskins playing on Monday night. Why? Tuesday morning,that's why. I have to pump myself full of coffee just to get half awake and still feel like a walking zombie. They ought to change it to Friday night football or start the game at 7:30pm instead of 9:15pm.:2cents: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazooka Tooth Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I like MNF. When the game is on Monday, I can afford to miss the other games and go do something else. I love to watch them all day, but then it makes me even more anxious for the skins game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MNF starts at 7, so it is over at a decent time instead of 12 or 1 in the morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedskinsNation Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Personally I hate everything about it. Maybe thats because we havent done well in recent years (negative reinforcement is a b***h). Sunday is already feeling like a bye-week plus going to work on Tuesday is gonna feel like im sleepwalking. Now all these views will change if we win - especially vs. the Cowards.

CLiNT0N P0RTiS Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I love watching the Skins on Monday night because it's all eyes on them and only them! but it is hard to wait for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midswat22 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I like it come Monday night . . . but it makes it very hard for me to look forward to Sunday. Especially this week . . . as there really isn't any good match-ups or interesting games to watch. Ideally, I like to have a good Eagles or Redskins game against a quality opponent at 1pm . . . followed by a Cowboys game at 4pm. I realize I didn't mention the Giants . . . but they are the division rival I could care the least about lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skins24 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 This game is also important for other reasons. It'll determine the Presidential election. Whenever the Skins play on a MN during an election year, a win means the incumbant party stays, if we lose the opposing party wins. So, if we win Bush stays and if we lose Kerry wins. So far it's 100% accurate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD_washingtonredskins Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 I prefer playing at 1:00 and winning so that I can just sit back and enjoy the rest of the football weekend. If we lose, then I wish our game was still ahead of us. I guess that sounds obvious but I really like the early Sunday games and then a full day of stress-free football to follow.

Darth Tater Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 panthro, WE DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU ON THE LEFT COAST BTW, I sort of agree with td_washingtonredskins, I prefer 1:00 games. If we win, I can relax and enjoy the rest of the football weekend in the afterglow that's almost post-coital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

China Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 Originally posted by Henry I like the honor, but the Redskins historically play like crap on Monday nights. Yes, Gibb's teams are historically bad on Monday nights. During his previous tenure the Redskins were 9-13 on Monday night. That included 5 MNF games against Dallas on Monday night with our record in those games being 2-3 (notably only one of those 5 games was played in DC, and we lost 31-30). However, in the 22 MNF games, we were 6-4 at home. A more interesting statistic, which goes to Coach Gibbs's coaching prowess, is that in games the week after MNF, with a short week to prepare, Gibbs' Redskins were 20-2.

bwall-2 Posted September 23, 2004 Share Posted September 23, 2004 It's always exciting to see the Redskins play on monday night in front of the nation,but as of late,they have not played all that good on MNF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
