that's how long it's been since the skins held the division lead. been a long time coming. hopefully it's just a milestone on the way to regaining some of that former glory.

thanks, dan snyder, for making it such a long and painful process.

Gotta feel pretty good about yesterday. Cousins steps in and the team responds as underdogs on the road.

The Giants in full on collapse mode and Dallas barely eeking out a win against an abominable Steelers team who tried to hand the game to them on a platter multiple times. The only thing the Steelers didn't do was score the TD's for them.

We got the Eagles at Philly, then Dallas at home. Both winnable games. They are the best team in the division and are staying hot at the right time.

From one long-suffering Skins fan to another, congrats Ziggy - looks like we may have the talent to make a run, in spite of young Daniel.

yeah, it felt good. watching the giants get shut out made a good day even better.
ah, but the steelers. bah. their ineptitude kept it from being a perfect football weekend. (a perfect weekend for our house is a saints win (tony and my oldest two are fans), a skins win (me and the youngest) and a dallas loss (because i loathe them).

all i know, tho, is that football is running down for the season, and hockey starting up is a dim possibility. what am i going to watch thru spring?!?!

Since Lebron..... He was hyped as a 6th grader. Hype that has turned out to be 100% legit as he is not even 30 and he is already one of the best players ever.
He went for 21 6 6 and 2 steals a game. As a rookie. Check out his stats from then until now. What hyped super star has ever improved so much? My only problem with the King is he loves being liked and he is a genuine good King. Everyone likes him. If he was more of a killer on the court he would have more then 1 Championship already. He is worlds better then Durant as the best player in the world, just needs to keep his edge. He is so nice he even talked to Eskendereya on twitter.
As a rookie he had games of 32,32,38,36,34,31 and a handful of games over 24 points. They improved 18 games with a horrible roster. Im pretty sure no one looks at this stuff, maybe Chuckles does... But it may have been the worse 35 win roster ever. Other then the King.
