I'd actually be interested to know, does anyone else make a bit of a link to a team that has their star fantasy player on? It can cause me issues some times (mind you, I just don't draft Cowboys... ever...) like I have a photo of me in an Eagles McNabb shirt somewhere, as I had him and Owens and they got me many a victory in their prime. This year I started the season with Andrew Luck as my keeper QB. Last year I almost got a Luck shirt and I guess thankfully I didn't.
Last year I thought Lamar Jackson was a flash in the pan, one dimensional QB that D's would work out this year and shut down. All the same, I took a chance on Jackson in an early round and it looks like it might have paid off. I didn't draft well for this season, looking more to score some young talent and find a new keeper, but still managed more points than 65% of the other teams so far this year and only just missed the playoffs. I feel I'm quite well set for next year now with Jackson, Chris Carson and JuJu (pending the Steelers QB position).
And now I'm here...
To be honest, it's come at just the right time for a Redskins fan. Even though we've had a couple of winning seasons, I feel like we've been rubbish for 15 to 20 years now. I'm glad I experienced our two Superbowl wins, the first is a night I will remember forever. In fact that whole playoff run was amazing. I still remember listening on armed forces radio to Darrel Green run that punt back, injured, against the Bears. I thought we had a glimmer of hope with RG3, but Shanahan basically broke him by keeping him in against Seattle when he was clearly injured. Then I had hope with Cousins (who I always thought looked our better bet) but the ownership clearly didn't want him... and I'm just at the end of my tether. A bit like
@No1newts I feel I need someone in with a chance of being good to pull for. I don't think I can turn my back on the Skins, how can I after 30+ years of pulling for them, but I just want a team I can cheer for with the hope of some post season action!
I'm quite impressed with the shirt itself for £29.
I took a chance on some unheard of site (eCrater). The store (caisehose) on there is Chinese I think so it took a couple of weeks to come, but looks to be a genuine NFL shirt.
As for this evening, the first game looks a little dull, but I guess could be quite close, pending the Bears Offence I guess. I'm really looking forward to Bills v Cowboys though. Any half decent team the Bills have faced though, they've lost, so not sure how it will go.
