being a redskins fan for so long has actaully made me quite numb to football. back in the glory days I'd take losses personally. Almost like my dog died or something. But about a decade of incompitence has made me a shell of a fan.
This is how I look at it now, and this how I think and I don't expect anyone to agree.
The players on team X make ungodly sums of money to play a game they love and be pampered and fed like kings. Getting their hands on any performance enhancing substances is a cake walk. They have women throwing themselves at them, the drive nice cars and some of them, especially veterans of 6 years or more, are actually pretty bright guys. They have a lot going for them aside for the fact when they are 50 their bodys will be destroyed. Anyway. I can't really relate with these guys. So I no longer feel for them, and I don't take losses personally anymore.
If something happened to me (losing my job, the death of a family member), do you think my lousy redskins would give a shit? No. And that's the way I feel about them. I don't know but I guess a long the way I lost my fanatical attitude for my redskins. I'm a football fan, but I don't bleed burgandy and gold anymore. But that's just me.
