This is what annoys me about 'Skins fans.
Gibbs' teams always seem to play pretty good in December. This is a pretty consistent pattern with his teams, i.e. it's nothing new. Maybe he has the midas touch in this month. But, due to it being a common pattern that really hasn't resulted in a huge amount of playoff victories and SBs (two in strike years), that doesn't prevent most 'Skins fans from thinking they are world beaters when they go on a bit of a winning streak during this time.
Personally, all I care about is my team winning. I don't really have a rivalry motive that drives me. But, since I live in the DC area, I get to hear a lot from these delusional 'Skins fans, so it makes it really easy not to like them. As we can see, there seem to be a few of them here who have created accounts just to pretend to be scared 'Boys fans.
Honestly, I'd rather beat them next week than let them have the opportunity to meet us in the playoffs. Partially, because any given Sunday applies. But, mostly because of where I live and what I have to live with in this area surrounded by their fans and the media.
Beating them with mostly backups would be nice. Personally, I don't think they deserve to get into the playoffs. But, I don't expect we will win next week. I expect a loss, because of my cynical/conspiracy side. I guess we can only wait and see what happens.
to the board.
