Redskins vs. Eagles

So me and two of my friends from work went to the Redskins Eagles game on Sunday. I love watching football and most of all tailgating. We arrived at the parking lot at 4:30 PM; the lot opens 4 hours before the game. So we made it right when it opened. We quickly seemed to be surrounded by Eagles fans, there were a lot of Redskins fans don't get me wrong. It is not that I don’t like all Eagles fans, I'm sad to say that an Eagles fan is one of my best friends. That being said when you have a group of Eagles fans, couple with alcohol, I was not happy. Every two seconds they were singing the Eagles fight song. E+A+G+L+E+S Eagles...SUCK. I don't see the need to recite a song so many times. While tailgating we came up with a fighting move that we dubbed the Chinese Sneak Attack. This move might be put to the test later in the day. It was a cold, sometimes raining evening, so we all had gloves. This is how it works, so you take your fingers out of the finger slots and make a fist inside your glove. To an untrained eye it appears that your fingers are still in the slots, but they are actually in a fist ready to attack. This is where you can add some creativity. You can go for the handshake punch, the wave punch, the wiggling of the fingers then punch, my favorite, or any way your heart so desire.

Jamie and I felt safe because we were Randow, 6'5 275 former bouncer. Enough said. So we are in the stadium and two minutes in the first quarter for no apparent reason the Eagles fan in front of use tells Randow that he was going to kick the bejesus out of him and then called him a faggot. I then stated, loudly, that we had leverage on him and that we was messing with a 6'8 300 pound man that will kick the shit out of him with without blinking. I exaggerated a little, 3 inches and 25 pounds. He took just a little offence to that and said something back. His friend next to him was telling him to calm down and he was just out of control and Randow was trying to keep the peace and went in shake his hand and he then put his hand in Randow's face. At that point the two friends almost were going to fight. It was crazy. The one friend who was trying to keep the peace and another guy left and he told him to meet him in the concourse so he could kick his ass. Like the Eagle fan that he is, he feel silent, well at least until he made it to the bottom of the steps, then he grew some balls and decided to talk back. They yelled for a couple minutes and he failed to meet the one guys request to meet him in the concourse. His dad, or some guy about 60 then came up and they stayed until about mid second quarter then left. Never to be seen again. The rest of the game was fairly calm after that.

In conclusion, I would like to say that the better team won on Sunday. The Eagles are clearly better than the Redskins and the best team right now in the NFC. We put up a good fight the game really should have gone to overtime. The same offensive struggles that have plagues us all year came back to hurt us again. The Redskins have a good team and with our Defense we are going to have a real good team next year. So until next year for the Redskins, and I will be watching the Eagles lose in the NFC Championship game this year, AGIAN
