Redskins Fans: To Root Or Not Root For Us This Weekend?

[theblackdog]

On the post's website there's a columnist saying that "No self respecting Redskins fan would root for the Ravens"

Then another columnist jumps into the fray, asking if Redskins fans in Maryland should root for us this weekend:

Both are receiving lots of commentary, but man oh man some of the comments from the Redskins homers are hilarious! You'd think that so much as looking at anything that's not burgundy would kill them!

Who cares? That's an entirely separate fanbase. They can do whatever they want. I'm not losing sleep over it. Bottom line is, only one fanbase will be happy at the end of the season. I doubt they'd get satisfaction from us going all the way.

I'll take one REAL fan over 10000 bandwagoners who'll root for us just because we're winning and they're not. Good riddance.

dont need them
dont want them.

cheering in front of a TV set accomplishes nothing.

Half the Skins fans are already pulling for us anyway. From what I hear, Skins fans are very rapidly becoming Baltimore fans. Besides, no self-respecting human being would root for the Pats.

To hell with the skins....

People can jump on our bandwagon as long as they jump off as quickly as they jumped on.

I don't care if Redskins fans want to cheer for us or if they don't want to cheer for us. Most likely, they will be cheering for us 3 times a year next season since we play the NFC East next season and will most likely want us to beat the Cowboys, Eagles and Giants, even if it does them no good.

[H8R]

Well, we play them next year in their house....So, we can take our respect from them.
