It's only one game and actually half a game. I just thought since the game I watched where they beat Ohio State and then I watched him a lot that he had IT. I lot of people were calling him the next Manziel, but I didn't think so. We will see. We know from experience that sometimes it takes defenses a while but they catch up to a guy. Mayfield is just so accurate and gets rid of the ball so quickly. Nothing against Darnold because he has skills but he is light years behind Baker … at the moment. Two or three years from now maybe that changes.

When I was a very young football fan and living in Philadelphia it was about Sonny, Tommy, Chuck Bednarik, Pete Retzlaff, Irv Cross, Tim Brown, Riley Gunnels, Tom Brookshirer and Maxie Baughn.

Tommy was a little guy but tough as nails. Hell no one was tougher than Bednarik. See, I was an Iggles fan before my parents moved us to DC.

I am all geeked out wearing my Caps jersey for the first game of the year. They raised the SC banner tonight which was very cool to see. As a fan from season one that grew up just a couple of miles from Capital Centre and was at all the games preseason and regular season in 1974 it is beautiful sight. Go Caps!!

Ahhhh...NO! It's still football and what happens beyond that 2.5 seconds matters. To make my point clearer, what if we ranked QB's by how quickly they release the ball?

The good news … I had a really good date last night. We had some good pizza and Old Bay wings and she gave me a hug because the Redskins were playing so poorly. All was not lost. :becky:

Run dammit run!...it's a setup, as good as those wings, pizza and hugs might have been, years from now you'll be cursing yourself for a licking your fingers moment. :D

(Just joking man, I honestly wish you all the best with that:suds:)

Just an old guy in the early in the 4th quarter of life trying to enjoy it and maybe hoping for OT. :thumb:
