Wrong thread, fanboy?

EDIT: I see congress called for a name change, and this is the right thread after all. http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/9319267/members-congress-urge-washington-redskins-change-name

To whom it may concern in Congress:

You have almost 17 trillion things to deal with and the Redskins are not one of 'em.

That was it?

I know I was drunk, but I lost my voice big time! Four minutes I'll never forget.

Yes. Yes you were. I know I was! I lost my voice too.

Some of us just got to watch it on TV. I do watch it occasionally still.

Never gets old.

No...it sure doesn't....thank you for sharing!

An experience I will never, ever forget! I still get chills thinking about it.

Same here. What a perfect couple of days...taking over the Buffalo Wild Wings in Canton.....the kick-ass tailgates.....the induction ceremony....(sneaking near the front and not getting caught, (that's me at the 1:48 mark, standing in the aisle in the white Taylor jersey & yellow ES cap).

Hands-down, it was one of the best weekends of my life!

True dat. I can't help but wonder who has the lower approval rating in DC right now, Congress or Roger Goodell.

There are 2 articles on this site about it, too. Hes in the right thread.

Someone let me know when Red Mesa High School in Arizona drops the team name of "Redskins". When that happens, then the Washington Redskins should consider changing their name too.

Here is their website...

Be sure to check out their mission statement.

Oklahoma means what?

Oh ya...it literally means red people.

Huh. Never knew that.

I will now refer to it as 'The State Which Shall Not Be Named.'

 

[Lanky Livingston]

Yah, I was always under the impression that "Red Man" or "Red Skin" was an Indian term - they would call us the "White Man" or "White Skin," and to differentiate they called themselves the "Red Skin." Maybe this is an incorrect version of history, but its how I've always thought the term originated.

We're gonna confuse quite a few women if we start calling it the "O-State" ... They'll be moving there in droves!

If Chris Russel talked on the radio the way he asks questions in a press conference I'd be able to stand him.

Happy birthday to Rich Tandler, one of the top Redskins reporters out there.

 

[Dead Money]

If Chris Russel talked on the radio the way he asks questions in a press conference I'd be able to stand him.

I was busting his balls on twitter this morning for being in frame for all 15 mins of Shanny's presser, fumbling with his notes, playing with his iphone, throwing his pen on the ground and picking it up, getting blown off by shanny for being too damn close, etc.... he's kinda sensitive.

 

[tshile]

Yeah, he thinks highly of himself and doesn't really like when someone says something to the contrary.

You'd think I'd appreciate that about him, but no, can't stand him.

 

[Dead Money]

Wow... Donny #5 seems to agree with me when it comes to a certain franchise QB being in the limelight a little too much during his injury recovery. That's about all we agree upon McFlubb.

 

[tshile]

mcnabb told mike wise he's been trying to get a hold of griffin and his dad, wants to sit down with them. for some reason griffin hasn't returned his call.

wants to tell him what he needs to hear, not what he wants to hear.

yeah

go **** yourself mcnabb. how about you worry about not sucking in your current career, then you can come talk to our guy about his pending career that, when all is said and done, will run circles around yours in its sleep.

 

[tshile]

oh and i heard through the medical grape vine, apparently this is big news among doctors in the field, part of griffins' treatment includes 'dry needle therapy' where they stick needles in the muscle and wiggle it around. it wakes up parts of the muscles and gets things going quicker.

i have a buddy that had that done on his shoulder and he said while it hurts like hell he'd get 20% increase in range of motion after 5-10 minutes of the therapy. according to his therapist they'd have to sit on his arm and pull on it all kinds of crazy to get that sort of progress.

so maybe it's not hgh.

I've always thought that the Redskins have the most fans in the league and are the most knowledgeable. Case and point...

Over at PFT, they rank how often one of their articles is commented on and is posted on the right hand side of the main page. Currently, Redskins related articles with the most comments occupy the first, second, fourth, and fifth positions - seventh too if you count the Deacon Jones story (it contains a Redskins reference and several quotes from Bruce Allen).

Just saying...

 

[McD5]

I've always believed the opposite to be true BB. At least for the last fifteen years. Members of this board excluded.

I attribute much of that to the fact that most Skins fans under the age of 30 don't even know what a good football team looks like, so they have always overestimated our team in the past. In many cases, big mouths with nothing to back it up--prior to last season.

Before last season, I would rank our under 30 group near the bottom of the league.

The Steeler fans have always enjoyed a quiet confidence, knowing that their defense was likely to kill someone on the next play. They have been fortunate. And for offense, the Pats fans have witnessed the cutting edge for a long time now. Both of those fan bases know more about what a modern day top offense and defense look like.
