    No thanks - I'm sliming down my PC too. Going to try slabsharks.com - will see how it goes. Thank you again for asking!

    "BGO Meets" Interviews with WFT & Adjacent Personalities

    I don't know if any of the folks here have the time/inclination, but thinking back to the Doc Walker discussions in the v old days, I wonder whether some iteration of a BGO staff member doing anywhere between a 5-20 minute interview/discussion with a WFT personality of various stripes would be...

    Tell the Truth Monday- 2024 End of Season Edition

    A couple tangentially related truths: 1. Maybe the conversation can finally move beyond the owner than was and can move into being the team that is. 2. Maybe the vibe of the team and the coverage of the team will pivot from spiteful in losing and incredulous in winning to considered when...

    BGO NFC Championship Game Chat Sunday!

    I'm really excited for today and don't have the usual pit-of-my-stomach ache in anticipation of what's going to happen. It'll be really tough to focus on U10 soccer all day instead of watching the NFC Championship, but that's how the cookie crumbled and maybe for the best for my own sanity to...

    BGO NFC Championship Game Chat Sunday!

    I will be following closely from my younger son's soccer tournament in New Rochelle which runs from 2-~6 PM ET tmrw; ABBA will be blasting (at least in my mind...).

    Defector.com: I Am Witness To The Rebirth Of Football In Washington

    Chis - you're not in any way saying this, but your post brought to mind that all fanbases that are the end of a negative article (or years of negative articles) share this feeling. And no one feels the brunt of a negative article (or cares about its content) more than the fans of that team...

    Defector.com: I Am Witness To The Rebirth Of Football In Washington

    I either wasn't aware of that or had totally forgotten. And totally understandable that you'd feel that way given that experience.

    Defector.com: I Am Witness To The Rebirth Of Football In Washington

    John - I'd give McKenna another try - I've copied a bit from his recent post on the Lions victory. Many (very reasonably) didn't like him for his extremely negative stance on the team during the Snyder era but, and particularly in retrospect, there were elements of his perspective that I think...

    Defector.com: I Am Witness To The Rebirth Of Football In Washington

    I don't know how many of you read Defector.com. It's where the crew from Deadspin went. Dave McKenna is there. Ray Ratto is there. As are many other really gifted writers, including Drew Magary who wrote the above. I think you all may enjoy the article and his picks for the NFC Championship...

    Our BGO Classic Redskins Photo Banner

    I’m sure this has occurred to you guys and/or you’ve already used them but the old media guides that were painstakingly scanned once upon a time may have some great old photos too.

    Official Game Thread - NFC CHAMPIONSHIP - Commanders @ Eagles

    Might be this one, though this looks AI-generated. There are similar articles out there but none that I found from MSM. https://www.bundle.app/en/sport/nfl's-latest-decision-has-fans-believing-eagles-vs-commanders-nfc-championship-game-is-'rigged'-8f565f65-6772-490f-84c5-f4ee0b47aa6f

    Official Game Thread - NFC CHAMPIONSHIP - Commanders @ Eagles

    I think that’s exactly right on the basis of the Vegas odds - ie reversion to the mean and Vegas looking to hedge their exposure and make it worth betting on the other side (ie betting on Washington). Will be interesting to see if the spread moves further. And honestly the bigger the spread...

    The Stadium Thread

    Man RFK was great if frighteningly steep in the upper level in the bad old days. Saw the Deion 49ers there as well as Tibetan Freedom Concert and I think an HFSTival. As with many of you, also went with my step dad to another game I can’t remember; he passed almost 25 years ago and was the...

    There's a twitter post with packages - I've never used them but FYI. https://www.bgobsession.com/threads/official-game-thread-nfc-championship-commanders-eagles.180377/page-6#post-505385

    A Historical Look at the Origins of Extremeskins

    Oh man - just brought up a flashback to the Daily Babe thread in the Tailgate which was unambiguously inappropriate but tolerated for quite a while if memory serves. I remember arriving and being like: “whoa can’t believe this is here and allowed…but might as well have a look while I’m here.”

    Official Game Thread - NFC CHAMPIONSHIP - Commanders @ Eagles

    HTTR, 36ST21 - personal experience can vary widely and I'm glad to hear you had a good time with no drama. My time as an opposing fan at NFL games including at Lincoln Financial hasn't been that way - and in general the later in the day the game is played, the more violent/out of control the fan...

    Official Game Thread - NFC CHAMPIONSHIP - Commanders @ Eagles

    I assume/hope that no one is considering going to Philly for the game? Given how Eagles fans have behaved historically and as widely reported from the Packers game, I would strongly encourage you to reconsider. I expect the intensity of this game will be enormous and a huge blessing that...

    Norvousness, 31, Anxiety Plaguing Commander's Fans, Dies.

    After a generation of producing unyielding anguish and vexing football fans from the Nation’s capital, the presumed interminable syndrome has mercifully been vanquished after a definitive 45-31 win in Detroit on Saturday night. Norv Turner was an unlikely and unfortunate star in the etymology...

    Thanks RedWolf! It's quilted; with a swamp ash body. I'm super excited as you'd expect. :) Here are my other two main guitars and an absolutely mission critical piece of kit for apartment dwellers like me...an attenuator!
