I swear to you i wrote it and rewrote, i don't know why there is a g...maybe its force of habbit from typing.

The aquarium is AWESOME. And I love the fish, some of the coolest i've seen. Portis seems like a really cool down to earth guy.

[Skins57]

LET'S GET IT STARTED!!!! :muzic:

[akhhorus]

Shameless plug for upcoming Disney movie...barf...

[28thegreat]

BILLY BOB!

[Skins57]

I agree

[funnyperson1]

NOOOOO...the damn reception seems to be out in Blacksburg, instead of my redskins game I get a nice screen from DirectTV apologizing for difficulties.....I don't need apologies I need the game.

[colkurtz]

Redskins in High Definition. It's beautiful man!

[Skins57]

Oh man. It just started raining here, it better not effect my reception. Direct TV better not be 50/50 tonight

[Skins57]

Madden still kissin Cowboy butt

[redwolf1218]

Redskins in High Definition. It's beautiful man!
go ahead, rub it in...i have the old fashioned wal mart 25 inch...still beautiful though!

[BigCountry]

Is it me or are is music from the Pirates of the Carribean original score played out in the pre game presentation on tv. First time CBS did it for an SEC game was cool but how many times can you hear it...

[colkurtz]

Brunnell needs to crank it up and have no turnovers. That will open up the running game.

[Skins57]

I hope we kickoff,our defense has a better chance of making a huge play and I like the ball first in hte second half

[colkurtz]

go ahead, rub it in...i have the old fashioned wal mart 25 inch...still beautiful though!

I sold all my furniture to buy the HD big screen. Got to have your priorities straight. LOL.

[Skins57]

here we go

[GeneralDisorder]

B*stards...

They've just shown the highlights of last year's game at FedEx over here. Good job I've got sense of humour...

[Skins57]

man Brown looks old

[colkurtz]

Good kickoff - lousy runback by Morton.

[akhhorus]

good running by Portis.

[colkurtz]

3rd and 2. Come on.

[Skins57]

3 and out darn

[colkurtz]

Brunnell throws into very tight coverage. Incomplete. Offense is starting slow.

[cwh25]

lucky it wasn't picked.

[akhhorus]

DAMMIT, they just cut away to tell up about a Tstorm warning in Colleton county..aint nothing Colleton county...a tornado might do some improvements.

[Skins57]

not a good start. We need to get to Vinny

[Skins57]

DAMMIT, they just cut away to tell up about a Tstorm warning in Colleton county..aint nothing Colleton county...a tornado might do some improvements.
:lol1:

[GeneralDisorder]

3 and out darn

Part of the gameplan. We're just playing with 'em...

[colkurtz]

Tupa has two good kicks. THAT part of ST is great.

[Skins57]

we have to get pressure

[akhhorus]

nice play by Lemar Marshall.

[Skins57]

no huddle

[cwh25]

yes! sack.

[colkurtz]

Blitz works and sack.....Beautiful. Speed rush by Wynn.

[Skins57]

pressure.. sack great job again for defense

[PGiddy18]

THAT IS THE WAY YOU START THE GAME!!!


GREAT Job D!!! You boys are staying consistant

[rhummer37]

Sounds pretty loud to me, what do you guys think?

[colkurtz]

ANOTHER weak runback by Morton. Second penalty for 'skins.

[akhhorus]

best thing about that sack was that it wasnt a blitz, straight rush. they need to sack him 4-8 times to win tonight.

[Monk4HOF]

Two special teams penalties already. We have had a lot of those this year.

[Skins57]

Jimoh, again how is he still here? Yes it sounds very loud, go SuperSkin and company

[josh90286]

damn jimoh..pff

[josh90286]

best thing about that sack was that it wasnt a blitz, straight rush. they need to sack him 4-8 times to win tonight.
i believe pierce was sent

[redwolf1218]

ANOTHER weak runback by Morton. Second penalty for 'skins.
exactly what i was thinking. he seems to want to tap dance around like he thinks everyone is going to run by him. he could have just run straight ahead for 5 yards.

[Monk4HOF]

Wynn is having a better pass rushing season this year. I hope he keeps it up, especially while Daniels is out.

[cwh25]

nice run.

[Skins57]

Portis

[akhhorus]

Portis has to be one of the fastest people ever to wear B&G.

[colkurtz]

No hole and no gain.

Then a big run for 16. Yes.!!!

[Skins57]

picked

[cwh25]

wow, he really hung that one up there.

[Monk4HOF]

REVIEW THAT!

[Skins57]

That was a weak arm wow

[akhhorus]

Challenge it Joe, it hit the ground.

[redwolf1218]

gotta review that int!!!

[Skins57]

looked like a punt

[josh90286]

we just saw the maximum distance brunell can throw...coles would have caught it but mistimed his jump

[colkurtz]

Long ball by Brunnell. Possible interception. It was thrown behind Coles (again). IMHO, his long ball touch is not there yet. Coles had double coverage.

[Skins57]

hopefully Joe has figured out how to use the red flag :D

[Monk4HOF]

That will be overturned. But, Coles definitely timed his jump poorly, he could have made a better play on the ball. Still a pretty bad throw.

[28thegreat]

we just saw the maximum distance brunell can throw...coles would have caught it but mistimed his jump
That was some serious mistiming!

[rhummer37]

Wow, what a scare by Brunnel.

[Skins57]

good call

[GeneralDisorder]

Brunell throws like my sister.

Come to think of it, so does Axegrinder...

[akhhorus]

finally, a call goes our way. Huzzah!

[Skins57]

shorter throws unless the whole defense falls down

[colkurtz]

Is it raining?

[Skins57]

Portis is going to be tired tinight

[akhhorus]

shorter throws unless the whole defense falls down

he did try to throw between both starting CBs.

Good catch 50/50

[Skins57]

will he catch 2 in a row :D

[cwh25]

wow, Gardner caught it.

[thickskin]

fool actually caught one

[colkurtz]

Good catch by Gardner. 1st down

[Skins57]

that throw should have been thrown earlier

[akhhorus]

Portis has to be close to 30-40 yards already.

[colkurtz]

Good run by Portis.

[cwh25]

Portis is looking good.

[Skins57]

took his mom to the prom???

[akhhorus]

beautiful catch and nice to see taylor high-five him.

[cwh25]

what a catch.

[Monk4HOF]

Nice job by brunell to find a way to get the first. The protection has been good so far.

[Skins57]

sweet catch

[colkurtz]

Another 3rd down conversion - juggled catch by Coles. Offense is driving along.

[ShaggySkins]

The recievers are looking like they came to play tonight

[ShaggySkins]

The way Pete Hunter went down it looks like he probably tore something

[thickskin]

coles looking sketchy early on hands-wise

[akhhorus]

now the cowboys are down a starting CB. Time to make that an ulcer to bleed them on. Come on down, Bruce Thornton.

[Skins57]

I called it earlier that Rod would have a big game

[Monk4HOF]

lets go right after the rookie db

[Skins57]

we need to go after the rookie

[josh90286]

i think this might be overturned..when he got control he might have only got one foot in..i hope im wrong lol

edit: nevermind! :D

[akhhorus]

Dallas is challenging it, they might win this one.

No, he has it.

[ShaggySkins]

The replay will be inconclusive I agree with Al

[colkurtz]

coles looking sketchy early on hands-wise

Yeah, that long pass - couldn't tell if Coles misplayed it or it was behind him.

[Skins57]

it would be about time to lose a call, with the Skins luck

[cwh25]

I think we'll win this challenge.

[ShaggySkins]

Yeah, that long pass - couldn't tell if Coles misplayed it or it was behind him.

He seemed to jump early. Neither him or Newman seemed to have a good read on the ball. Maybe they lost it in the lights.

[Monk4HOF]

i saw that it was close on the initial replay. i was hoping we could get the next play off first. it could be reversed - the rules on the sideline are strange sometimes.

[thickskin]

jeah

[colkurtz]

Light rain has started. 'skins win replay and get first down on cowboys 38.

[ShaggySkins]

Play stands great call Dallas uses a TO

[Skins57]

play action go after the rookie

[ShaggySkins]

Ray Brown has looked good thus far. Is Kenyatta Jones hurt or did he get benched???

[Skins57]

right idea but that was newman wasn't it

[Monk4HOF]

Coles definitely doesn't quite have his head in the game.

[Skins57]

Coles doing a Rod impersonation

[akhhorus]

Ray Brown has looked good thus far. Is Kenyatta Jones hurt or did he get benched???

ankle problem last week during the practice before Giants.

[colkurtz]

Coles drops one. Ball hits him right in the hands. Hmmmm..

[cwh25]

Brunell seems a little off tonight.

[Skins57]

out of bounds, or it could have been a flag

[ShaggySkins]

WE GOT IT!!!!!!!!!

[Skins57]

got it back

[colkurtz]

Semi-long Ball thrown 3-5 yds out of bounds by Brunnell.

[akhhorus]

Redskins BALL WOOHOO!!!

[cwh25]

YES!

[Monk4HOF]

THAT is what we needed.

[thickskin]

JEAHHH

[PGiddy18]

FUMBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1


WAy to step it up Special TEAMS!!!!

[colkurtz]

Thrash on another ST play. Got the ball . VERY big play.

[Skins57]

go to the end zone right away, we have to score 7 this drive

[ShaggySkins]

Sellers knocked the ball out on the hit while on the ground

[PGiddy18]

is that play reviewable?

[Skins57]

I need to see it again, darn missed it

[josh90286]

thats stupid that the refs are flip flopping calls so much nowadays..could see another challenge here..im not sure he had control

[akhhorus]

on the last replay, it looks like ward wasnt flopped on the ball, just over it. I smell a replay coming.

[cwh25]

Didn't see a very good replay, but it did not look like he had control of the ball.

[28thegreat]

is that play reviewable?
Let's hope so. The ball was bouncing around under him. He DI NOT have control!

[colkurtz]

Fumble is being called back. Bummer. Dallas has own ball on their 16.

[akhhorus]

Didn't see a very good replay, but it did not look like he had control of the ball.

the question is: did he have control with the ball with his body or was he just over it. If he's over it(without control), then its a fumble.

[josh90286]

i dont think he had control, but also dont think there will be sufficient evidence to overturn it...looks like bad luck for the skins..

[ShaggySkins]

Lets just keep them pinned back and get after Vinny!

[Skins57]

darn

[colkurtz]

Good pass by Vinny.

[colkurtz]

Blitz by Gregg Williams. Cowboys passing EVERY play.

[akhhorus]

DAMMIT, theyve interrupted the game again..just for T-Storm warning...Who gives a **EDIT**

[Monk4HOF]

Did Barrow dress for this game?

[colkurtz]

Two big holes and two long runs. DL showing it's true quality.

[NCskinsfanatic]

Taylor isnt tackling he just threw his shoulder on that one.

[colkurtz]

Blitz and screen play.

[Skins57]

I don't think Barrow is active. Taylor missed a tackle

[Monk4HOF]

Not a nice effort by Taylor on that missed tackle.

Nice play by Griffin.

[Skins57]

huge 3 rd down

[Skins57]

who is it on, must likely Harris

[akhhorus]

Good blitz by taylor.

[Skins57]

I thougt it looked both ways

[cwh25]

horrible call. glenn initiaited contact.

[Monk4HOF]

Atrocious call.

[Skins57]

well we are down 7

[cwh25]

these refs suck.

[NCskinsfanatic]

That whole series was full of bad calls, just pitiful.

[colkurtz]

Lousy call by officials and TD on next play.

Why was Harris one-on-one that deep?

[PGiddy18]

This is F'ing ridiculious. How can you miss that call! The Ref was RIGHT there. WHy wouldnt' you call pass interfierence on the offense? I hope they take this and use it as fuel and make the cowboys choke on it.

[Axegrinder]

Zebras
SUCK!
WE'RE PLAYING AGAINST 2 TEAMS.

[colkurtz]

Good blitz by taylor.

Well Taylor didn't get in and long pass had interference.

[LadyNRedskinsfan]

what a B.S.!!!! call!

[colkurtz]

Brunnell needs to get some medium passes. Another dropped pass by Coles.

[PGiddy18]

Right now, Coles is looking more ike 50-50.. they are'nt doing too bad... but it hit him in the chest

[akhhorus]

whats up with the Spurrier like playcalling?

[akhhorus]

another drop by Coles. Jeez.

[cwh25]

coles looks hurt.

[ShaggySkins]

Coles looks like absolute crap

[Skins57]

Coles is stinkin up the joint. it looked like he was hurt on the drop before this

[Monk4HOF]

What the heck is up with Coles tonight? Three drops, a near drop and a bad play on the longball.

[colkurtz]

ANOTHER drops by Coles . Two perfect passes . What is going on here?

[cwh25]

can't blame the play calling that much. coles keeps dropping passes.

[NCskinsfanatic]

2 drops by Coles in one series but I bet it's really all brunells fault right? This team just doesnt execute on offense and then phantom calls against the D put them in a hole....geeeesh!

[Skins57]

will we see, jacobs or thrash more tonihgt?

[colkurtz]

Hate to say it, but might be time to pull out Coles. He's dropped too many. He's killing the offense.

[rhummer37]

Man I love G. Williams. Nice work boys.

[NCskinsfanatic]

Is he so bothered by the toe that it has caused him to lose a step?

[akhhorus]

Hate to say it, but might be time to pull out Coles. He's dropped too many. He's killing the offense.

replace him with who? Thrash? You're out of your mind.

[rhummer37]

Man I love G. Williams. Nice work boys.


Spoke too soon.

[PennSkinsFan]

Now that play really bothered me. Last third down and 7, we blitzed, stopped them. Here, no blitz! Come on GW, consistency

[NCskinsfanatic]

This games not starting out so well, we dont play well from behind.

[suppitty]

I AM SO SICK OF LOSING!!! CAN WE CATCH A BREAK, OR A PASS FOR THAT MATTER! CAN YOU MAKE A TACKLE TO NOT LET BRYANT GET A FIRST DOWN ON 3RD AND 7!! I HAVE AND ALWAYS WILL SUPPORT THIS TEAM, BUT RIGHT NOW DALLAS IS KICKING OUR ASSES AGAIN.

[Monk4HOF]

They are definitely running at Lamar Marshall

[akhhorus]

Nice coverage by Taylor. Blanketed Glenn so Vinny couldnt make a good pass.

[colkurtz]

Sean Taylor blocks one . good.

[suppitty]

THERE U GO SMOOT.

[cwh25]

Nice blitz by smoot.

[Monk4HOF]

Back to Portis please.

[colkurtz]

Smoot on a great blitz....

[cwh25]

Back to Portis please.

I second that one.

[akhhorus]

Taylor Jacobs is in.

[ShaggySkins]

Coles is not in the game now

[colkurtz]

Jacobs is in for Coles. Good move.

[suppitty]

Is everybody else's radio unusually far ahead of the tv?

[redwolf1218]

time to start making plays. i cant go to work tomorrow after a blow out.

[Monk4HOF]

We look like a bunch of jerks out there.

[cwh25]

what's with all of the penalties?

[sknz2856]

We must have negative yards!!! This is ridiculous. What's up with Taylor's tackling. He's missed 3 tackles that I've noticed.

[colkurtz]

2 more penalties in one series. Dropped passes and mucho penalties. Looking like last game....

[suppitty]

well could that have been much worse?

[josh90286]

yea sean taylor has missed 2 tackles that ive seen trying to make big hits instead of just wrapping up..

[ShaggySkins]

This was an embarassing first quarter. Penalties, dropped passes, and missed tackles. We have given Dallas everything that they have.

[ShaggySkins]

well could that have been much worse?

We'll find out the game isn't over yet

[BigCountry]

Yeah I feel terrible for calling out Coles now.

If he doesn't start playing like a number 1 wide reciever we're screwed cause right now he looks like a practice squader at best.

[redwolf1218]

i hope Portis breaks a long one because it looks like he's all we've got.

[Skins57]

flag. looked worse than Harris

[rhummer37]

Uggh, that guy is ticking me off.

[Skins57]

my bad

[GeneralDisorder]

This was an embarassing first quarter. Penalties, dropped passes, and missed tackles. We have given Dallas everything that they have.

The officials gave 'em a bit more...

[colkurtz]

Brunnell just isn't close on the long ball. He has not had a good big pass in 3 games.

[suppitty]

and a give up play.

[akhhorus]

Yeah I feel terrible for calling out Coles now.

If he doesn't start playing like a number 1 wide reciever we're screwed cause right now he looks like a practice squader at best.

I think he's just having mental farts. He'll be back in.

[suppitty]

alright defense, bail us out again.

[Skins57]

we need to get Cooley involved

[cwh25]

They just said we had 8 more penalty yards than offensive yards.

[Monk4HOF]

Did anyone decide to come to play on Monday night against the Cowboys?

3rd and 21 and Gibbs has to run the ball because he has no other option. Brunell can't complete a pass longer than 12 yards and our receivers can't perform their most basic duty of catching the ball.

This is embarrassing.

[NCskinsfanatic]

Man can something please go right for us in the first half? we dont need to go into the half down 1 or 2 scores.

[GeneralDisorder]

Portis is 9 for 48...

[ShaggySkins]

Currently we have 66 Penalty yards and 69 Total yards so right now we have a total of +3 YARDS!!!!

[Skins57]

we need to get a 3 and out, if they score here we might be in trouble as our offense has not proved to play well enought to catch up

[sammy]

we need to get Cooley involved
We need to get the offence involved

[akhhorus]

They just said we had 8 more penalty yards than offensive yards.

but 40+ of that was the BS pass interference call.

[redwolf1218]

pass intended for antonio pierce apparently.

[Skins57]

We need to get the offence involved
:lol1: but true :banghead:

[colkurtz]

Pierce could have had a INT there.

[cwh25]

good pressure by the D.

[Skins57]

good job again defense

[akhhorus]

Great pressure for the Skins. The Cowgirls wont be able to consistanly pass unless they have a running game.

[rhummer37]

I LOVE THIS DEFENSE

[Monk4HOF]

Nice play by Bowen. This defense better be ready to play every single week.

[NCskinsfanatic]

Thats what im talking about nice job on D.
