Anyone who knows me knows that I am a huge Redskin fan. Growing up in the Metropolitan area I do not see how people do not bleed burgundy and gold. I sure do without a doubt. We all know the history of the Redskins, which takes us back to the glory days of Joe Gibbs, Art Monk and the win of the the 80's and the early 90s. However, as I have made my transition into this beautiful world my team has showed me nothing but a horrendous showing. I DONT KNOW AT all those glory day and I say this with huge capitol letters. I mean the last time the redskins won the superbowl I was nothing but a couple of months old with no knowledge of it all.
With all that said is it the safe to say that the Redskins are finally making the turnaround that I have dreamed of since a little girl. Ok maybe my dreams of the Superbowl this year are too much of a close call so far, but I must say I woke up this morning Monday feeling like I had my swag back when it came to football. I could clearly walk one foot in front of the other confidently with my head held high knowing that my team produced a sunday win worthy of getting me through the week and making me feel productive. I mean come on people its nothing like when your team wins on sunday...all football fans know this too well.
RGIII's debut puts a bright eye in all Redskin fans eyes. After years of oblivian when it comes to the qurterback division in DC its seems as though we have finally found the glue that we have needed. Granted its about time Dan Snyder made the right offseason acquisition. I do not know what it is about Dan Synder. with all that money that he has his football persoective could use a little bit of a boast. Sometimes you worry about his dedication to the Redskins based on where he puts his money alone. However, the man FINALLY did the right thing and it showed through Robert Giffen III performance. Looking poised and as if he had been doing this for years as a professional. Ironically, this is a guy whose impact on the team was questioned to a degree. Adrew Luck was expected to do alot more. I mean his debut is ranked 4th overall in all NFL debuts and with 320 yrds throwing the ball I clearly will not shoot down any comments saying that the redskins have no offense. Can RGIII be the next Cam Newton this year? Could he not only do that, but as a Rookie propell his team into postseason glory? My heart says yes, but my instinct says to wait. Nonetheless in week one the grade is A.
What I will say is Football has come BACK to DC(in my Rock voice)! :) the Metropolitan area has something to smile about again. I will go out on a further limb and say not only is it back but its a force to be wreckin with in the NFC East. The Redskin people have a chance to win the divison. On the otherhand we all know the Redskins and its hard to take them serioudly. they start off great and then go throgh the Great Depression every year in the month of November. No one is ever concerned with the Redskins. Its the Giants sneak attack every year and everyone worried about what the Eagles and Cowboys are able to muster. I put it this way the Washington Redskins can be the team to mbeat if they can stay productive. Its about time that the Redskins are in conversations. On paper this team was not expected to win this game. That was even considered New Orleans Bounty scandal or not. We all know how hard it is to go into the Superdome and win. Not only did they win, but they competed with a Drew Brees team that puts points on the board. When is the last time have you seen the Redskins put up 32????? I havent seen it SMH. Im excited and next week against the Rams the locomotive will continue to run. I can go on for days, instead what I will say is the DEAD is Gone and the Red is BACK in REDSKINS! That is Mr.REDSKIN to you!
Until next week signing off Mykell Ramos...
