We are who they thought we were!!!

Post by HitDoctor »

I'm 45 so I have seen the best of times and believe me, this IS the worst of times. I am really starting to wonder if now I am wasting precious time! I will probably have a serious discussion with my Father about the rest of the season (ticket wise). We will probably hit a few of the games early Fall, but he has already stated that when the weather gets cold, he's leaving for Miami. Will most likely sell most of them to opposing fans in protest. I'm guessing the Dallas game will be a flat out home game for the visitors. How much more of our lives are we going to give up for Dan Snyder!!!!!

So, you don't remember the Otto Graham years, huh? Incredible talent, incredible performances, squandered on a regular basis. Or the years following George Allen's departure, leaving a team with little viable talent, and virtually no draft picks to use as capital...

I will admit, however, that things look a little bleak right now.

oh yeah, I remember the years after George Allen. Also bleak. I'm actually praying for a lockout after this season.

Yeah, I remember that time.

It was better than this. These years have no incredible talent.

I still think the Spurrier years were worse.

The Spurrier years were simply a different symptom of the same disease.

Do you really think that Dan Snyder enjoys to lose? I know that Dan Snyder is pissed and he wants this team to win just as much as every Redskins fan does.

He's the one in position to fix it -- and doesn't know how.

Or at least won't do what it takes.

While I'm concerned, we're 1-2, not 1-12. I don't have a lot of confidence atm, but i can't give up quite yet (now that I've had time to get the emotional aspect out of the way). Hopefully, this is the shakeup we need.
...any given Sunday....

RIP #21 Sean Taylor. You will be loved and adored by Redskins fans forever!!!!!
