Plan B

by Burgundy and Gold on Dec 30, 2007 12:58 PM EST

I just rode on an Orange line metro car full of Redskins fans, and nearly burst into tears when I got off to transfer to the Red line, heading to my parents' house instead of staying on until FedEx Field. In a couple of hours, I'll join friends at a local sports bar for the big game. Until then, I'll be watching the Chicago - New Orleans game, which (discounting ties) is one half of the Redskins' backup plan for entering the playoffs:

Minnesota loss and a New Orleans loss... so LETS GO BEARS!

Catching Up...

The first half is coming to a close, with very positive playoff implications for the Redskins. The Bears lead the Saints 17-7 following two touchdown passes.

I hope Joe Gibbs has instituted a media ban - no need to let the team know that things are looking up.
