Yes, Even the Redskins Fight song has been cleaned up to be more Politically Correct. Cleaned up to wash away Southern ties and heritage to be more palatable to the metropolitan denizens. Read about it here: http://espn.go.com/page2/wash/s/closer/020315.htmlThe original words were:
Hail to the Redskins!
Hail Victory!
Braves on the Warpath!
Fight for old Dixie!
Run or pass and score -- we want a lot more!
Scalp 'em, swamp 'em -- We will take 'em big score
Read 'em, weep 'em, touchdown - we want heap more
Fight on, Fight on -- 'Till you have won
Sons of Wash-ing-ton. Rah!, Rah!, Rah!
Oh yeah, I almost forgot, Go Redskins! Beat The Giants!
Whoo Hooooooo!

As long as the Skins are playing NFC East Teams they have a shot. Of course my Falcons have no shot, except that fade and high back-spin golf shot.
"You had to post a pic of them playing the Cowboys didn't you?!?! The score from yesterday just isn't enough...go ahead...rub it in more..."
Uhmm Er, yeah. In all the euphoria yesterday I almost didnt notice the photo (of C. Cooley), it was for Icky actually. But not to worry the obnoxiousness is out of my system now, really! I even managed not to mention the increadibly lopsided score all day yesterday! Yes, I am reformed.
