Just saw a guy crossing the street with an Atlanta Braves cap on.

13. Dang. I got to talking about the Jerry Dome and these guys
are genuinely impressed with the design and the effort Jerry has put into the stadium. And you know that Jerry will never misspell "Cowboys"

:rofl:

I'm actually amazed that the number of fans seem equally divided between Deadskins and Ravens fans with a few eaglet fans. There doesn't seem to be much fervor about either the Deadskins or the Natinals in DC. There seems to be more excitement about them in MD than in DC.

:shrug:

14. Yeah Nationals fans tend to be Montgomery, PG county and NOVA residents
However, were it football season, I think that the number of Skins fans would be VERY obvious...

22. When? You've had forty plus years to win one. McNabb is on his last legs,
as is Westbrook.

Face it, the eaglets have had 43 years to win one (two milleneums, no less) and yet the have managed to choke in everyone of those years.

'nuff said.

20. THREE SUPER BOWL LOSSES
that's kind of hard to match, not impossible, but pretty much in Buffalo Bills territory if you ask me.

25. Expensive, but with wi-fi it was worth it.
$2 for a small coffee. I used to get the same size from teh street vendors in NYC for 50 cents and did the same thing for me!!

28. I love Caribou.
It's one of the first places I hit when I visit home (Minnesota). Last September, when I flew to MN for the birth of my grandson, my brother picked me up at the airport with a large Caribou in hand for me. :D
