Butchers Bill

I believe I've passed the age of consciousness and righteous rage
I found that just surviving was a noble fight.
I once believed in causes too,
I had my pointless point of view,
And life went on no matter who was wrong or right.

Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

They took the pictures down pretty quickly.  I should have saved them.  I'm so sorry.  But hey.. I'll give you guys a hint of what it was.

Guess who's fans cheered when Mike Vick went down with an injury and didn't get right back up?

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

QuoteWhen the taterskins actually go about scoring some touchdowns, Monday is a big day in the D.C. area for buying pizza due to the Papa John's specials tied to touchdowns. After the Niners game last year, a buddy of mine told me they were out of toppings at some stores by noon.

So, here's something for you that may be good in the lean times .

The taterskins are actually paying attention to suggestions I've made to work with their advertisers and sponsors to get stuff to the fans directly. I'm very encouraged and happy by what they're trying to do. Here's what they've just done.

Order online (www.papajohns.com) one large pizza, with up to 5 toppings for 9.99 using promo code SKINS5TOP. Promotion is valid through 12/31.

This offer is not available anywhere else. The taterskins have a newsletter with deals and they provide deals in other formats, but, this offer is intended for the ES audience.

You must order online. This offer is only for the National Capital Area Papa John's locations, so, I don't get to partake, but many of you in the D.C. area will. With hope, at least a few of you will find this offer worthwhile.

Cheers.

GF needs to hook us up with special deals, too.  >:(

so that douche doesn't even live in the metro area?


however, he is right about the papa johns deal, last year when the skins scored like 6 TDs against the Niners you could get 12 free toppings on a pizza and many storew were sold out.  but i think he's lying when he says he has a buddy.

We'll start the morning off right.  Your team just lost 24-14 with slim playoff hopes on the line.  You're now 4-8 and virtually eliminated.  What do you do?  Well you create a "Here's how we can get to the playoffs" thread! :-D

QuoteAt 8-8 are paloffs still possible?

this thread is for Us diehards....

Hey you number crunchers....Tell me the dream is still alive. Give this board some hope.

We may be laughed at and ridiculed but some of us want to believe it is still possible...

...At least for one more game.

You know who you are...

Tell me how it can happen....

QuoteWell...lol...

Giants and Eagles would need to lose this weekend...actually that's no true, but it would help. After that:

The Skins, obviously, would need to go 4-0...
The Falcons would need to go 1-3 at best...
The Giants would need to lose to the Eagles...
The Eagles would need to lose to the Cowboys...
The Vikings would need to go 2-2 at best...
The 49ers would need to go 2-2 at best...maybe 3-1 would still be ok, not sure...
The Packers would need to go 3-1 at best...

The Rams would need...well, they wouldn't need to do anything since one of the Skins' wins would be against them...
The Panthers wouldn't need to really do anything, either...they can have the other wildcard spot...

So, yeah, it's still mathematically possible...

it really is amazing the level of optimism down here in DC.  real honest to goodness newsmen and women are talking about the playoffs still, even after yesterdays loss.  unbelievable.  although one guy on the local news here yesterday started talking about the skins playoff hopes and then just started laughing and said who are we kidding.  i'm sure he's fired today.

It couldn't be the self-proclaimed "classiest fanbase in the NFL"? Could it?

Quotewe taterskins fans are classy, but when the team is doing as poorly as we did, and its an overrated player that flicked off little kids, we're gonna go philly on him when he goes down. Heck, Vick got off easy, i was shocked there wasn't a "Vick has herpes" chant. If the whole crowd managed to get coordinated for one "DEFENSE" chant, then I think the chants would get rather colorful. So was it classy by us, no. But do the math, (underperforming team + outed to the press by a player + losing a 14 pt lead + overrated opponent + flicked off little kids + the most dense concentration of alcohol other than a brewery/vineyard/distillation) = Boo's, cuz we have to take our frustration out on somebody. The good thing is that Vick got up. In Philly, Irvin didn't and I am sure those fans feel horrible about that. So is there a lesson here...yes, but lets put it in the past with this whole season

The guy above is so, so wrong about how we feel about the Irvin incident.

QuoteI'm extremely dissapointed to say that, today, the loudest my section got was when Michael Vick was on the ground being attended to by trainers  Obviously, I'm not blaming anyone on here in particular but that really upset me. I have major gripes with the lack of effort to help the defense by the homecrowd, booing louder than cheering at times but this took the cake. I was definitely ashamed of the fans around me. Section 437 represent. Woohoo.

QuoteMy girlfriend and I were sitting in traffic coming out of the purple lot and we had our windows down because we were a bit warm. Next to us a guy and his girlfriend (both taterskins fans) are screaming into a van of 4 people (2 men and what I guess were their wives). The guy outside just keeps dropping f-bombs even with kids around and he is clearly drunk. The people inside the van were all taterskins fans as well. The guy goes on about how he has the vans liscense plate and he is gonna f'in kill them, meanwhile the fan inside the fan looks bewildered and doesnt say anything back to the drunk yelling at him.

Then the drunk picks up a glass bottle on the street and smashes it against the van windshield. Glass shatters everywhere and a piece flew into our SUV and landed right in my neck. Fortunately it wasnt a big piece, I got out to try and see where the drunk ran off too, but he was long gone. No cops came the entire time this was happening, they were right up the street doing a poor job of controlling traffic.
