hey pommy and DC toAustralia
and anyone else who can’t watch the games.
not sure if this will work outside of Europe, but my wife found this for me the last time we were here in Germany

List of
inactives: QB3 Bartell, 20 Tryon, 23 DHall, 26 Portis, 50 Edwin Williams, 55 Bowen, 69 Fanaika, 97 Wynn. Smoot starts for Hall.
i assume barnes is the nickleback?
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Please o-line give Campbell a chane!
I'm worried about the beer supply. After this case, and the other case, there's only one case left- Barney Gumble

our boys are lookin good today huh!!
SpotieOtieDopalicious
they said they were both covered
DT and MK
SpotieOtieDopalicious
usually I'm all for that
but not with darren sharper back there
SpotieOtieDopalicious
what do we
have to lose? It’s time we start making NFL plays. Let our guys make a name for themselves.
YES
we did. OH what a feeling.
BTW – I’m not knocking what they did there, I just want to see them utilize the height advantage they have now.
I understand and agree....
but maybe they see something in practivce in regards to that they don’t like yet! But as you said….what do we have to lose!
it feels good
but at the same time, it pisses me off because I don’t understand why we couldn’t do it at the beginning of the year
SpotieOtieDopalicious
oh man
i think sherm put the team on “the jucie” this week
SpotieOtieDopalicious
in his defense
there was a LB about to massacre him on the hurry up
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Trading Cooley is becoming more and more of a possibility?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laydODN6xVk
It would still be hard to...
get rid of the teams fan favorite!!! I would like to see them on the field together myself….and would kill me to see Cooley in any other uniform!
any chance
we can get through this game without piling on Campbell? He’s looking pretty good right now.
i just hope the team doesn't become complacent
that was a really nice drive, but they need 7
SpotieOtieDopalicious
welcome to all of 2009 with him......
I think Landry may be my personal biggest disappointment of the year individually!
he needs to sit down and watch.....
every game from ST21 and see what he is representing out there!!!!
Im starting to think my stream is a little bit ahead....
SpotieOtieDopalicious
I have a split stream....
so I always aim the strongest into the toilet and clean up the rest when I am done…..haha….couldn’t resist
there you go
that’s how you’re SUPPOSED to hit. You can catch it if you want to, but you’re gonna catch a LOT more than the ball
holy shit
good rush AND good coverage. Against the best Red Zone offense in the league…………… .. Oh what could have been
I don't think
We give our defense enough credit for what it accomplishes. Of course there’s plenty of time for Brees and company to light us up, but our D is playing great thus far.
that looked like a WTF play to me
SpotieOtieDopalicious
well well well
santana, i believe you know the new orleans saints
SpotieOtieDopalicious
i'm sending sherm
a truck full of jello, driven by two 19 yearl old nymphomaniac swedish chicks. who’s puttin up the money with me?
SpotieOtieDopalicious
man
how the hell are we gonna get vinny outta here now?
SpotieOtieDopalicious
this is what a saints
fan posted in justintv … lsupat:
Not hating on the Skins, but NO is obviously hurting on D from the injuries
I don't blame Barnes
I blame our back cloud. How many of those fluke plays have happened to us this year?
the time he woulda took to look up woulda winded up with him getting hit
he did the best he could. listened to the people around him, curled in on himself to make the smallest target possible and tried to move back
SpotieOtieDopalicious
cant blame anyone on that one
he tried to move
SpotieOtieDopalicious
ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SpotieOtieDopalicious
it was an interceptiuon
down by contact
SpotieOtieDopalicious
what a shitty job of ball control by moore though

We're not good enough to overcome shit like this
wonderful

Too many legs
flopping around. I think he didn’t have possession until he was clear of the receiver.
looked like his knee
was on Shockey when he got ahold of it. Doesn’t matter. Bad plays happen to bad teams. Like I keep saying, we need to clean house, empty all the bad ju-ju outta the locker room along with the bad luggage
Its either an int and down by contact
or its no int there is no way he wasn’t down by contact
This team is
absolutely cursed. We get no reward for playing so well, instead we get yet another nut shot.
redskins to return first in the second half
so that’s an advantage
by Burgundy and Gold on Dec 6, 2009 2:51 PM EST reply actions
Strahan just CAN'T
give us props. Thought commentators were supposed to be neutral. We shot ourselves in the foot there, but who thought we’d even BE in this game.
man
i kew ya’ll had a great D but where has your offense been hiding all year
by mississippisaintsfan on Dec 6, 2009 2:52 PM EST reply actions
definitelty
still doesn’t mean we don’t go oline this offseason
SpotieOtieDopalicious
they played one really good half of football
so lets see if they can play another one right now. tbh, this team has looked good. Yes the punt and the fumble returned for six truly do suck and are very representative of the team’s fortunes this year but they are hanging with the Sants. Hope to see them do the same in the 2nd half.
I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused....
killin 'em wit that pump fake
SpotieOtieDopalicious
wow
Fred Davis and Devin Thomas are official. give Malcolm one more offseason and this will be a successful draft class
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Yip it`s good
to see Sleepy & DT make good plays, it gives us something to look forward to next year
didn't think you were gonna be sayin that
in the offseason either, did ya?
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Is Jim Zorn back to calling plays, or is that still being handled by others?
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.
YES!!!!!!
they don’t want it!!!!
SpotieOtieDopalicious
holy shiot
what’s going on todayy?!?!!?!?
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Let's hear it
for injuries,if we hadn’t had all these injuries they would never know how much talent is in the young guys because they would never develop them.Hope common sense sets in and they start these guys next season.
THAT WAS 6 IF HE DIDN'T FALL!!!!!
SpotieOtieDopalicious
wow
CJ, i think Devin just pissed all over your cloud
SpotieOtieDopalicious
and why isn't the little one being tossed this week? :)
SpotieOtieDopalicious
If it makes you feel any better
I threw my nieces into the walls. And I threw my dog down into the ground.
We have a
team,let Lewis OC next season and let them earn their starting jobs and we have serious potential for next season!
This is getting really really good.
(I know I’m just a Bears fan, but the Skins are my Dad’s team, and I still follow the Skins with a sort of secondary fanhood).
Go hogs!
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.
No Comment. ;-)
May the wind be always at your back, and may your placekicker have icewater in his veins.

Er, good for you??
If you don’t wash it, are you ever wearing it again? Just checkin’ …

don't wanna be in a shootout today
SpotieOtieDopalicious
i'm gonna shit myself
I’m spending football season in germany from now on, aince this is how they wanna play now
SpotieOtieDopalicious
when your QB is on fire
that’ll happen
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Spoke too soon!

OK, now he made up for it!

That just sounds so wrong.

portis almost led the league in rushing last season and cooley is our best receiver.

keep cooley
I wanna see this two tight end formation. it will be GLORIOUS!!
take portis back around the shed and have him go the way of old yeller
SpotieOtieDopalicious
hell no
I don’t wanna hear injury excuses out of ANYBODY. look what we’re doing with injuries!!!
SpotieOtieDopalicious
they shoulda went for it on that one
the offense was red hot
SpotieOtieDopalicious
Damn we should
Have got the TD there. That’s gonna bite us in the ass later on with the Saints’ offense.
I REALLY
hate to say this, but Drew Brees is a LOT better than the 2 QB’s who’ve beaten us the last 2 weeks from behind. I really wanted 6 there. Especially after that big play
Obviously you have a good point
But how much of a gut check would it have been to go for it and miss and have that same Drew Brees march 90 yards to tie it?
yeah, I know
and a playoff bound team kicks the FG every time. But a team playing for respect? Maybe not. We could argue this all day. And I’d be on both sides.
No this is a game
that we are going to WIN & not throw it away like we`ve done the past couple of weeks
if they keep them to 3 its a success
SpotieOtieDopalicious
i DESPISE talking heads that call him a bust
also those “fans” that can’t see the effect he has on our run defense
SpotieOtieDopalicious
It's much easier to stop the run
when you have a DT that’s roughly as wide as half the field of play.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
....well then.
It’s nice to get the ’Skins out here on the West Coast.

Hmmm....
that must’ve been just a liiiittle too tempting for Brees.
That was a pretty dangerous throw.

Now....
can we run down the clock with Portis Betts Mason?

Missed last week completely and most of this week, but WOW!
Just joining in guys… I missed all of last week, but what is going on today? Is this score REAL? Just got home (lots of drama the last two weeks!) but we’re about to beat the SAINTS? This was the game I almost bought tickets for… man, oh, man.
Hey, CJ
Got my first HDTV right after BF, just because of your teasing. What’s the quick low down on how we scored? Looks like 3 TDs, 3 FGs? Who scored the TDs?
Wow
From an Eagles fan, very nice game the Redskins are playing. Talk about bringing the Saints down back to reality.
RIP Jim Johnson, best ever.
No I wasn't ahead
I was just fucking around. I totally jinxed us.

Ugh......
you have GOT to be fucking KIDDING me.

We’ll take that.
SHIT. HAYNESWORTH DOWN.

TD.
However, the Saints may have scored too quickly….
1:19 left on the clock w/ 3 TOs for JCam.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
Exactly
I just knew it was going to bite us in the ass by not going for the TD, especially against the Saints’ offense.
That was
kind of a lot of time off the clock….
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
UGH.....
Beat the zone, to the Skins 48, AND got outta bounds.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
At least
it’ll have to be a miracle finish for the Saints to win in reg.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?

Me too.
A la Troy Vincent/Sean Taylor vs the Cowboys.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?

Brees back on the field. UGH.
Icing the kicker gave Payton a chance to think.
No harm done, though. Plus now we can use our last TO.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
Who you calling "Young"? I remember the George Allen days....
And have a son older than some of the posters here….
I remember the George Allen days too.
Read about ’em on Wikipedia.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?

We get the ball.
That’s (probably) a stroke of good luck?
Unless JCam throws another pick.

Saints call a timeout so the booth can review the fumble.

I don't think so
And with the slow mo, the folks in the booth are starting to agree.
Damn, how can you type??

For the rest of the season,
can we just accompany every Skins game with “Yakety Sax”?
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
we should just add
well if only Zorn had tried to win the game
Suisham
Since he knows his job may be in deep jeopardy now.
forget jeapardy
he misses one more kick and hes gone
I guess the NFL really wants to see the colts and the saints stay perfect
This same bullshit happened against the texans last week
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laydODN6xVk
IF they wanna throw when they are in FG range anyway in OT
why arent our Corners jumping every route trying for the INT
What have you got to lose
Pommylee
Oh we'll lose to Oakland take that to the bank
and they will probably blow us out too, we only fight and try against so called good teams
Remember teh first 6 weeks?
Pommylee
adn NO I am not saying I would take the pick over wins
just accepting the inevitable at this point
Pommylee
Even the defense has now given up.
Saints are being kinda greedy, though.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
but i'm sure we'll hear on monday
that yes the fumble review should have been ruled a down by contact and the nfl will say sorry
Maybe
Brees will test positive for steroids and the Saints will have to forfeit all their wins.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
well
the refs are about to give them the game now
SpotieOtieDopalicious
our fault for
not preaching ball security, but this really sucks. At least ONE of those calls should have gone our way
Yeah.....
what pisses ME off is the lack of consistency. There wasn’t enough evidence to overturn the fumble play, but there WAS enough to overturn the down by contact?
Fucking bullshit.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
Anything but an offensive lineman.
We’re not even aware of their existence.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
And no more fucking receivers.
Vinny wants us to have a roster with 53 fucking receivers.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
TO as close as it could have been, pretty much.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
I take it back
cut suisham today and bench mike for the year
there simply wasn't enough evidence to over turn that play
they handed them the game
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=laydODN6xVk
and if there was
then there was enough to overturn the first one. I hate blaming losses on the refs, cuz we shouldn’t put ourselves in that position, but that was atrocious
Like I said.
It’s just the inconsistency that bothers me.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
What Inconsistency
When they went to review, the announcers were all concluding there was no way to reverse that call. My brother turned to my nephew and said “they forgot the rule: replay ALWAYS goes against the ’Skins, no matter what.” And sure enough, reversal, FG, loss. So it was completely consistent.
That said, I’m completely in the “a good team doesn’t dominate the way they did and leave a game where the officials can hose them” camp. The Redskins have no beef, because it NEVER should have been close at the end.
i know we say don't blame officiating
but seriously? seriously?

i wish this was an away game so the plane could crash

Whoa....
if a PHILLY fan has never heard anything that harsh, you may wanna ease up a bit.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
F*** Blaming the refs
you have to make 23 yarders, u just have too
Suisham made 13 in a row when they didnt matter he has now missed 2 in 3 weeks that mattered,all you need from a kicker is he be clutch, Suisham has jellly legs when its important
Pommylee
I havent seen it here I must admit
but really how bad could the snap of been on a 23 yarder
AND
Once its placed, and it did get placed adn its not deflected, its a chip shot
Pommylee
Chip shots
CAN be difficult if it’s an extreme angle. Closer you get, the wider the deflection angle.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
you also need to
play for the touchdown when you get close. Last 3 weeks, we’ve coughed up leads settling for field goals
Can't argue with you now
Im so fucking upset. How the fuck do you fucking take away the ball when you’ve blown the whistle, so that the players can’t fight for it.
They were too busy listening to league saying
“Just call it a TO, Brees and the Saints are a better storyline”
By a rule change that occurred last year or so this play was reviewable. It can only be ruled a turnover if the other team clearly would recover. Stupid ass rule if you ask me, but it is a rule.
by Knubles and Bits on Dec 6, 2009 11:32 PM EST up reply actions
We should
be on a 3 game winning streak right now. Only the skins.
Although if we had won
the last two, I’m sure we would have come out flat as f* today.
like I keep saying
I know it’s hard to think about it now, but this really is for the better. We played hard, didn’t quit, the young guys keep improving and showing they belong, and we showed we could play with them. But we still preserve our draft pick, and show Danny that things need to change
Wow.
That makes so much sense….. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?

I feel bad for JCam.
Played a fantastic game until that ugly pick at the end.
Dbacks return to the WS in 2010?
Hey, it could happen.
Too many times
There won’t be a lot of times where Campbell wins or loses the game for you, that’s just who he is.
yep
unfortunately we’re not good enough to win despite that. Sure would be nice if we were, cuz we need A LOT this offseason. Would be nice if we didn’t need a QB too
QB is a luxury pick
a luxury we can’t afford right now
SpotieOtieDopalicious
well weather we deserved to win or not
Ya’ll have alot better team then i thought.Ya played great and i enjoyed talking to ya’ll this week thanks
by mississippisaintsfan on Dec 6, 2009 5:21 PM EST reply actions
I don't dispute
whether you deserved it. The refs screwed up some calls, but good teams don’t put themselves in that position. The bottom line is, the problems we had have plagued us all year. We played good, but the Saints played to win.
I think your team is muc better than your record
Thank you for a very exciting game. All the best for the rest of your season and next year.
I really don't know what to say...
The Skins gave a fantastic performance today. They are coming on. If Campbell continues to play like that, your team is definatly heading in the right direction. I can’t say enough about your line play, O and D. Keep your head up and stick it to the ’boys. Great effort today.
"I don’t think about how good we’ve been,’’ Brees said. "I think about how good we can be.’’
Well...
The better team did not win today. I have never seen so much crazy crap in one game. I hung up the towel before that missed field goal, and I hung up again after the Skins won the overtime coin toss. Campbell tore through our secondary like OJ in a room full of sports trophies, and the Skins d-line stuffed our running game like a Thanksgiving turkey.
Thanks Jack
I know Saints fans have been here, too. It’s why I don’t even mind the “Who Dat” chants. Much LOL
