My fellow Skins fans, these are tough times to bleed burgundy and gold. The media has labeled this season a disaster for our Joe Gibbs-led franchise, and we’ve seen the return of hackneyed, big-spending-Snyder jokes. We are now into week 8 of having to endure the mockery aimed at Al Saunders’ 700-page playbook. (Have you … Read more
This week, the Redskins join a group of losers (Bills, Lions, and Dolphins) with a bye. This group has won 6 of the 28 games played between them for a pathetic combined winning percentage of .286.

Well at least we’re not Cardinal fans. However, as with the Card fans, this past week thoroughly tested the resolve of those of us that bleed burgundy and gold. As painful as an untimely loss to a 0-5 team at home is, it can’t compare to the five seasons endured with Norv Turner at the … Read more
