You have proven that you have NEVER participated in organized sports and that you have no grasp on the concept of progression.

This post is an embarrassment to all things Redskins, and shows a complete lack of understanding of sports!
It's ok let him jump off the bandwagon now, we sure as heck won't let him back on when this team earns their way to the Super Bowl.
Some people just post ignorant things to get attention but the sad part is I think he really meant that.
Oh and I hope you don't have children skinzrule because 1st isn't always attainable but working your butt off and putting your heart into something should always be rewarded.
Whenever I start to get blue, I just breathe!

"About 100 fans were at Redskins Park when the team arrived at the facility early on Sunday morning. They cheered wildly--in cold, windy conditions--as buses drove by.
Among the many signs: "Thanks for a Great Season, Redskins!"
I was there when they arrived. It was "hella" cold and windy. I was excited to see the players arrive. They arrived at the time they said they would, and exited the park rather quickly.
HIGHLIGHTS:
- Looking into the buses, it was obvious that the team was disappointed in their performance. Some players waived to the fans, but most were somewhat somber. Obviously, it was not like last week, when they returned victors.
- Joe Salave'a was the only Redskins player that I saw actually stop to greet/thank the fans and sign autographs. As many have noted, it was bitterly cold that night, and Joe, wearing nothing but the suit he wore during the return trip, went down the line gretting each person who came out. Thank you, Joe; you certainly cemented your spot in my heart.
- While at first I wondered why the players and coaches left so soon, I realized: a) It was close to 3:00 AM b) They had just lost and had to endure a 5 hour flight c) These players had left DC earlier last week, and I'm sure they were longing to be home. Needless to say, I understood their desire to get their rest.
- NOTABLES: Lotsa HUMMERS rolled outta that parking lot, and quite a few Pick-up trucks. I did see one station wagon leaving the lot, and I can only wonder who that belongs to. I saw, Clinton Portis, Carlos Rogers, Gregg Williams, Randy Thomas ( on the passenger's side, obviously), some of the other coaches, and, of course Big Joe. Though the players and coaches had to roll out, they DID acknowledge the fans as they drove by. It was special.
Overall, 'twas a very cold experience. Thankfully, my wife was with me, and we stayed warm. That was my first time EVER at Redskins Park, and I was glad to be there lending them my support.
Special thanks to NikiH for providing directions and confirming the Skins' arrival time. Sorry I missed you guys, and I hope the little one is doing much better.
