Hail Victory

In the eight years I lived in DC, the Bengals met the Redskins in exactly zero contests. In fact, in the past 13 years, the two teams hadn't met until yesterday. So while I always hated the Redskins, I never had the satisfaction of a head to head meeting. So, when the season went sour early on for the Bengals, Sunday November 14th quickly became my superbowl. I'm off to email Reed and Yon now, to remind them (even though neither care a great deal) that it was the Bengals who were responsible for what will likely be one of lowest points in Joe Gibb's career, yanking his starting qb to a chorus of boos from the typically fickle Redskins fans.

Don't forget to e-mail Nick and Adrian too. They're Skins fans, right?

You are spared the agony of having them on TV all the time. The Redskins offense is TERRIBLE. Not only that, Gibbs has made absolutely no adjustments until finally benching Brunell last week. If it had been anyone other than Gibbs coaching, not only would the fans turned on him weeks ago, but they probably would have shot his dog and burned down his house too.
