Wow, swag has been around for ages, especially in British slang.

Whenever I get something free, I uncork a line from Ronin - "Got the swag, kept the money, job well done!"

I see a lot more of it too. I wish I had a $1 for every RG3 jersey I've seen in the malls.
I haven't seen redskins "swag" since the 90's.......or sporadically in September for a week or so. They are the biggest hypocritical fairweather fans ever.

This year, RG3 jerseys sell out almost as soon as they arrive and every group of kids has one kid in the mall is wearing Redskins snapbacks/beanies.

In Atlanta mind you, where the home team is the best team in the conference. (No wonder it's called the worst sports city in America)
Kids easily impressed

He was nervous - worried about the Cowboys

Here in North Carolina, they say that before the Panthers came that the area was pretty divided between Cowboy and Redskin fans. I don't think that was the case though.

Everywhere I go it seems the last 4 weeks I have seen Redskin crap. There is even a guy I see riding around flying Giants flags on his car sometimes.

Either way, I am breaking all my gear out tomorrow.

I've lived in West Palm Beach for almost 15 years and do not remember ever seeing any Redskin flags flying on cars.

I stopped by Sams Club today to pick up some supplies and saw an old fossil and his wife driving their brand new burgundy Buick with a Redskins flag flying.

Makes me want to puke whenever I see that garbage anywhere.

Here's to hoping we batter RG3 and the rest of those fools!
The biggest bandwagon buffoons were in the Bay Area in the early 80's. They could never make up their mind from year to year if they were going to be Whiner or Raiders fans.

In my entire life, I can't remember ever seeing anyone wearing any Redskins stuff (in person).

I only have two friends that are redskins fans. But in general here in Western New York it is rare to find one, but they are here hiding. Most people here are Bills, Cowboys, Patriots, Giants, and Eagles fans.

I have to disagree, I would say our Cowboys have the biggest bandwagon fan base of any team. It's amazing at how many crawl out of the walls during an up year, hell you probably have some sitting right next to you at work and won't even know it until we beat the Redskins Sunday night.

It's real annoying.
In Charlotte I've seen a ton of Cowboys gear out and about. Hardly any Skins stuff.

Hmmmm, I'm in Gastonia just down the road and haven't seen much Cowboys gear.

Maybe I should ride down and be amongst people with some sense.

Since moving to Greensboro I haven't seen very much NFL gear at all. It's all college hoops all the time around here.

I've spent a lot of time in New Mexico, and for years, around the reservations I've always seen people here and there wearing Redskins gear. It probably sounds like a bad joke, but it's true.
