    Ditto on the sports thing Travis.
    The concept of sports fanaticism when watching total strangers is totally lost on me as well.
    I mean I really don't get it, at all.

    Yep. I can understand supporting your kids or grandchildren in the stand. Or even playing yourself...but anything else is just not my cup of tea.

    Seeing beefcake guys with shoulder pads, and other equipment is every lady, and gay man's fantasy. Yes I like football. I played front 4 defense in high school. I loved to knock other guys to the ground. I did not look too bad in uniform either.

    They followed the money. Millions in 'incentives' were provided the team. Virginia hasn't been the same since Wilder let the new stadium slip through his fingers into Maryland.

    Funny, there really aren't any first rate facilities for them to practice in here. City Stadium (U of R) is OK, but just OK.

    All this, and I'm a long time, die hard Redskins fan. I think it's nice of them to bring the source of much suffering so close to me... :roll:
    QAnon / GOP Republicans mentally lack the necessary intelligence to even tell a decent lie (Ex: A cabal of Satanic, cannibalistic pedophiles run a global child sex trafficking ring and conspired against former President Dotard dRUMPf during his term in office... Jewish space lasers, etc.). What in the hell makes anyone believe these melon heads can actually govern?

    Not exactly off topic, as it relates to the subject of the thread: True story...

    But first, a trivia question: Of the four major-league level sports franchises that call Washington DC their home, which one does not actually play in DC? The answer, of course, is the currently under discussion Washington Redskins, who presently play at FedEx field in MD.

    3 years ago, we noticed this several times as we were heading from the motel to the apartment the kids were staying in at the time, before they relocated to VA.

    So, a few weeks later, the Nationals are up in Pittsburgh playing the Pirates for a weekend series. Little Miss Field Day gets herself on the Sunday game's "Baseball Quiz"... if she answers correctly, she wins a $200 team jacket.

    Want to guess what the question was?

    And she didn't remember. So there I am on the side, trying to signal her, but no...

    So she gets the consolation prize... a Pirates ball cap. Like we don't have a zillion of those... or does she want to trade it in for the contents of The Box Of Mystery? She traded, got a signed shirt from one of the players. So it was a decent day for her after all.
