Let me tell you a sad story. There once was a football team called the Washington Redskins. They were 2-0 going into the game with their arch enemies, the New York Giants, who were 0-2. This game was actually televised on the West Coast which excited the Redskins fans living there because those poor forgotten fans never actually get to see their guys play. Things were looking good. The 'Skins were wearing throwback uniforms which looked pretty goofy, but they were up 17-3 at the half so who cares? During halftime they apparently decided they could send in some high school players in their place and they, the Redskins, could take a break. What did this mean? About three first downs the whole second half, no scoring, including when they were first and goal with 45 seconds left, and they lost 24-17. If that story doesn't make you get a little misty-eyed, I don't know what will.

Last night our next door neighbor Bones, who was wearing a Cowboys jersey, "helped" me carry the groceries in from the car just so he could come in a have a laugh at poor Zach's Redskins-fandom expense. I just can't get over the shock of a Skins game televised over there!
