Washington is just a terrible franchise. What a game.

I have so many great memories (and bad ones, like Clint Longley) of the Skins, their games, and their players, but whatever mystique they had to me has faded over the years. There are a lot of reasons that contribute to that, but a big one for me is that they lost something in the move from D.C. and RFK stadium to Landover and that concrete pit that they play in now. I remember as a kid going to a couple of games at RFK stadium with my Grandfather who had season tickets until his death in '71, and then I worked as a beer vendor for the last seven seasons there, and nothing compared to the atmosphere and fans of RFK. I was there for the seat cushion game and the rout of the Lions on their run to the Super Bowl, but even in the lean years, there was just something unique about RFK.  I worked exactly one game at the new stadium and didn't go back because it was totally different and just felt off. I'm surprised that they've managed to have the support of the fans for as long as they have, but today, after over 50 years, they didn't sell out the stadium. And it wasn't even close.

Vikes go to Lambeau, get a punt blocked for a TD, miss 3 FGs and tie.  I don’t know how to feel.  Thanks for Kirk, Washington.  He was spectacular.

i'm contemplating switching teams just so i can continue to root for Cousins. 400+ yards with 4 TDS against Rogers. Not bad, not bad.
