Just curious if anyone has anything they are doing/wearing during this playoff run.

I have not worn any Skins/commanders gear this year. I have worn stuff 5 times. Five losses. Also bought Budweiser to drink for the Tampa game so now am stuck drinking it for the two games we have left.
 
Been wearing this T-Shirt under my Commanders Hoodie every game since the game vs Dallas in Week 18

Hoodie has not been washed.
 
I don’t know if it’s a superstition or just a way to not get too anxious. But I try to do anything expect watch football until kickoff. I’ll watch the MD basketball game until 2 and then watch some other college basketball or a Simpsons re-run or something else. Then flip to Fox at 3pm for the start. And if it looks like another 20 minutes before kick off, then I’ll turn the channel and come back later. If I miss a play, then I’ll rewind and catch back up during a commercial.
 
It's been so long since our last playoff run that I've forgotten any superstitions I may have had.

This year's run has been so awe-inspiring that I've been too blown away to think about what superstitions might have been created.
 
First playoff game I joined a friend at his new girlfriends house. Steak, beer, and standing the whole game. We already have plans to do the same for this weekends game. God I hope he doesn't dump this girl until after the SuperBowl.

&*#$ ! I don't even know.. it was dark when I arrived. Now WTF am I s'post to do with all of these variables?
 
I don't believe in that...I do what I do. I have zero input or impact on the outcome. I will be here doing what I do watching the game.

"It's not a cursed op. There's no curses. It's just Afghanistan, that's all."

I don't practice no Santeria...

 
We last lost on November 24th.

I turned 44 on November 25th, and one of the birthday gifts from my wife was a 3 pack of Commanders socks - 1 burgundy, 1 white, 1 black.

Each gameday since then, I’ve worn the color socks of the uniform we are wearing that day. I have also worn the same Commanders hoodie and black sweatpants every gameday since.

For the playoffs, I’ve had the exact same cocktails in corresponding Commanders drinkware in the same order for each game.

I also require my wife and son to continue wearing the same outfits on Gameday.

So yeah, thank me later. 🤣
 
Every time I watch a game with a buddy, we lose. The last time I tried it was Thanksgiving week. So now I watch alone. So far, my plan is working.

I have one dog I scratch when we are on offense and need a first down.. It's worked wonders, but is useless when we are on defense. I scratch his sister for that. I have another dog I have to put in the other room while the game is on. Also, my wife gave me a hoodie with the Taco Holder logo (she knows not to get me anything with the Commies name on it). I wore it against the Lions, so I will wear it again against the Eagirls.
 
On several of my gaming group sites, I changed my avatar to be the one I'm using here. The team immediately went on its month long losing streak. I can't switch back yet.

Also, no haircut. Simple, but maybe effective.

Funny! My hairdresser of 25 years pissed me off (for political reasons) so I've decided to not support her stupidity any longer.
My hair is an absolute wreck and I dgaf. I have Redskins hats for that.
