Congatulations to the Commanders ...and Condolences to the Cowboys

[Tobal]

I could root for the Giants, not the skins (rivalry) and not the Eagles (ringless jab would lose it's luster)

You are thinking correctly. It's not easy to root for a team that beat you. I Believe it takes a special type of fan to step up and support a rival within your own division when your primary team cannot represent you in the playoffs.

Hence, "good sportsmanship" lives!

The difference between me and you is you have a primary team, I have a favorite team I have no secondary teams, nothing. The division pride means nothing to me if the Cowboys aren't representing the division. I absolutely hope that the Skins and Giants get blown out in the first round of the playoffs and embarassed. I hope Eli throws 5 picks and they get shut out. At this point my hatred for the Giants has surpassed my hatred for either the Eagles or the Commanders. I would NEVER root for any division rival to win unless it had a positive impact on the Dallas Cowboys playoff chances etc. thats it.

I could care less about the giants, they are nothing more than a media love-fest with a pouty faced QB that got to choose which team he wanted to go to just like TO.

But the deadskins are a low life organization that I'd like to see gutted from top down... I wish nothing but failure for the Deadskins at this point.

First, congratulations to the Commanders fans (e.g., SaT), and condolences to th Cowboys. We had those Commanders sweating for a little while. This Eagles fan realizes that neither team hates us any more or less than before, but to me, it didn't look like the Eagles "rolled-over" for the Skins.

It's tough playing half of the regular season without playmakers or even your 1st team! It will be interesting in 2006 when a healthy Eagles team steps onto the filed (e.g., D-Nabb, Westbrook, Pinkston, Buckhaulter/Parry, Fraley, and Sheppard) and the rest of our first string players return.

Anyway, just wanted to say that I'm also an NFCE fan! I'd like to see either the G-men or the Skins take it all! I realize that scenario may not unflold, but it won't be because of my not wishing that it will happen.

Good Hunting in 2006!

Why did fat boy change the QB !!!???!!!!!

you guys had a shot with the other guy in there. Granted...the other guy is/was a loose cannon.....but at least he gave you an opportunity to win.

As soon as no-arm went into the game...I knew it was over.

I was sitting in Texas stadium watching eagles/skins on the big screen..... Thought the eagles had a chance until Detmer lost the ball.... :bang2: :bang2:

I will be surprised if either of those teams make it very far.

:starspin :starspin

When he put Detmer in I knew he wasnt gonna try and win the game... McMahon probably had one more TD drive in him.

Congratulations and Condolences to you to Phoenix-Talon.
Congratulations on going from SB Loser to basement losing record non playoff appearance. My Condolences to the death of the team.

I cannot congratulate the Commanders but I can acknowledge that the Eagles gave a yoeman effort. The Commanders had to win the game, yet the Eagles with key injuries came in a cat's whisker of beating them. Props to the Eagles. I won't be able to say this to the Eagles next year as I expect them to contend for the Division championship.

 

[InDakWeTrust]

Just like last year I pick a AFC team and root them on, but I exclude some teams...Steelers, Colts, Ravens, Bills, Broncos.....pretty much everyone except for Jax and Cincy. Those are the two teams I like to watch because I respect their coaches.

 

[Kilyin]

Yep, congrats to the Eagles for losing every single division game of the season. That's quite an accomplishment, one that they haven't been able to duplicate since 1973.
