The Redskins ain’t playing the Rams this week. My beloved New York Football Giants - you know, that team which is in first place in the NFC East? - is taking them on at home this week.
If we win, we are in first place and have the best record in the entire NFC. And even if we lose, we are still in first place in our division.

Ok, then the trash talking will be between me and Satan this week. I’m not picky.
Satan please be so kind as to re-read my above post directed at Falcon, except replace Giants anywhere it says Skins, m’kay? I know it doesn’t completely fit in (Gazoo hasn’t placed any special curse on the Giants), but it’s all I can think of right now.
All I can say is: Trent Green is not the problem. He passed very well the last game. The problem is missing Marshall Faulk. With him out, we lose a major offensive threat. And have the Rams really signed this Trung Candidate guy in the first round, or was that all some sort of fucked-up PR stunt?
The other problem of course, is our defense. I would wish your team good luck, Satan, but the Rams need it more.
I’ll do some digging, but IIRC, Conway was cut because he was a sucky kicker too. The Redskins haven’t had a good kicker since Chip Lohmiller left. sobs
Forgive me Sledman, for I have sinned. My faith was weak. How was I to know that the football gods would smile down upon the Pack and reward them with a lucky bounce that finally went their way? I was led astray, but I shall no longer doubt my team. I must repent.
So let’s see here:
Go you Packers, Go, Go!
Go you Packers, Go, Go!
We’re dreamin’ of a Super Bowl
Go you Packers, Go, Go!
…something, something. Repeat chorus.
OK, so I haven’t heard that song in a while. And can you belive the International Lyrics Server doesn’t even have any mention of the Wizenhiemers?
Christ almgihty…Redskins this, Redskins that, Redskins, Redskins, Redskins. And the Arizona game was the kind that the Cards usually find themselves down 28 by halftime, but there were a bunch of incredibly fluky plays which allow Arizona to squeak through, and it’s all because of this idiotic “curse”. Yeah, right.
Meanwhile, no one’s giving Gazoo any credit whatsoever for picking the Bills in a very evenly-matched contest, having the guts to let it ride on the Saints, or sticking with the now-legit Raiders. (Yo, Gazoo, let me be the first, all right? Great calls. Though you might want to tone down the blowing-the-doors-off-of-those-sports-magazines bit, lets you start some other weird “curse”.)
Sheesh, and I thought the preseason hype was bad…
Oh, uh…Raiders win the division and…er, Jaguars don’t make the playoffs. I’m not the gambling type, so that’s as far as I’ll go.
