Although I think I mis-picked about 14 Redskins games this year, I will happily take J. Roberts’ place if he remains MIA.

Thanks for the mention Bill. Now I just have to figure out a way to get you to write here.

As for a forum, I don’t know. There are already so many well visited Redskins message boards, I’m not sure if there is a need for another one. Then again people will probably be saying that about Redskins blogs soon too, when I started doing this I was one of the very few. Now there are new ones and very good ones popping up all the time.

Ok, gotta put it here…

So now you know who to blame if you get some increased site traffic soon, Lee.

“I was happy when I was people did!”

Ummm… what the heck was I saying?

I believe that should be “I was happy when I found out people did!”

Senility, I guess.

Hey, am I the only one here who remember Pardee and Allen as Head Coaches?

BTW, Lee, when are you adding a Forum?

At my current age, I’m starting to think you could make a WALK for it and I wouldn’t catch you. My son now calls me “Old Man”. I’m OLDER than the mental image I have of my father, by almost 5 years (though his 71st is tomorrow). But actually, you could be standing in front of me and I might not even be able to see you took the jersey…..

Hmmm… kind of like some of the balls through towards the Redskin’s Corners, I wouldn’t even see it coming….. 8(

I read the reports, and looked forward to seeing them every week!

Doesn’t sound like I’d win the age battle, so I think I’ll have to take my chances with the “We’ll give him another few days and move down the list.” Though if Bill’s wearing trifocals it makes me wonder if I could snag his jersey and make a run for it and maybe he wouldn’t be able to catch me … hehe

I always wondered if anyone was reading them (they were much more elaborate, I ended up having to go back and edit them after week 6-7 and summarize anything over a week old… the limit on message size, and only ONE message per person, reeked). I was happy when I was people did!

We could do it by age, with the oldest of the three of us getting it, since he (or she) has presumably the shortest time to live and fewest great Redskin Games remaining before we hit the big couch in the sky… since I probably win that one (I’m wearing my brand new Tri-focals today) I gladly accept ;P

Besides, with a son about to go to College, how can I afford to buy a Jersey? The last time I was able to get more than a Hat (bought at FedEx, Baltimore 17, Washington 10, October 10, 2004, my only Regular Season Redskin game attended, though I caught a Miami-Washington preseason game at Joe Robie in 1993). Most of my stuff is from the Redskin’s last Superbowl victory, 1992.

Hmmm, just tried emailing him again and it bounced back. I can’t find anyone on the messages boards with that nickname either. We’ll give him another few days and move down the list.

If anyone knows of Jeff, let him know he’s got a prize waiting if he gets a hold of me.
