Football Silliness

Dearest You,

I just checked the weekend's football scores. I know its Tuesday and I should have checked them on Monday. I should have, but I was too busy just trying to get through the day. Just trying not to text you. Because I think its the last thing you want from me right now.

Any way - I knew the Redskins had won because of the really funny drunken phone call from my dad right after the game. He was so happy! :) It was a big game for the 'Skins, they beat the Giants at home in Landover, MD (I wonder if they should be called the Maryland Redskins instead of the Washington Redskins since they no longer play in DC. I call the New York teams Jersey teams because they play in the Meadowlands in New Jersey. Its logical). Its been a loooooonnnnnng time since the 'Skins beat the Giants. And its a huge rivalry, always has been. I'm convinced none of the NFC East teams like each other very much. The 'Skins like beating the Philadephia Eagles as much as the Giants. Of course with Redskins fans its all about beating the Dallas Cowboys. As I keep telling my son, "cowboys who ride horses are good, Cowboys who play football are bad". Or another one is "my two favorite teams are the Washington Redkins and whoever is playing the Dallas Cowboys". Which brings me to the point of this letter, the Cowboys lost against the New York Jets in their season opener. :) It was a good weekend for Redskins fans! :)

There is always a bright spot, even if it is a football bright spot. :)
