NEM said:What channel and call letters of the channel is it shown on in DC... we are working to make sure we get the satellite feed at the Vine from either Boston or DC.
Bella*chick said:Oh, no kidding! I've lived here a while now, and while it's sort of funny that the fans here are so obsessed with their team, it gets SO old so fast. It's entertaining to see them sniping about how badly their team sucks two games into the preseason.

Bella*chick said:Oh, NUT. Dear, sweet NUT. I swear to you this is a different brand. Don't believe me? Neither did my husband....but after a few months of living here, he came home after a drive listening to sports talk radio and his solemn words to me were, "You're right. They're annoying as HELL here."
We've lived in Boston and New York as well. No other fan of any other sports team can quite get on your nerves as much. Seriously. Football is ALL they have here that anyone cares about. And of course, Pats fans get a free pass from me.
That's what I've got. Channel 5. But NOT in HD.PATSNUTme said:Not according to my schedule. This is not national so Channel 5 and other station inNE will be carrying the game.

Murphys95 said:Generally speaking there are two sets of Redskins fans, the old money and the nouveau riche. The old money are lifelong fans, and are some of the coolest people I've met. They have stories of waiting in line for playoffs tickets in the rain and rocking the bleachers at RFK Stadium. They have been watching and supporting their team since the 60's and 70's.
The nouveau riche, are the latecomers, those who began rooting for the Skins after their Super Bowl wins. These are vocal fans who expect a championship and nothing less will entertain them - these are the ones who when asked how they think their Skins will fare say, "I think they'll do okay - not great, but okay, I think they'll go 11-5 this year." No doubt these are the ones getting on your nerves.
Mike Patrick has been calling the Redskins preseason games, but on the bright side, Riggo is his color commentator (love that guy)
