IRVING, Texas (AP) – Joe Gibbs has won three Super Bowls and two NASCAR championships. Yet of all the thrills he has experienced, he puts what happened Monday night near the top of the list.
It was a very late night for me last night…..But well worth it to watch our Washington Redskins beat the Dallas Cowboys 14 – 13. 🙂
“Making this victory even sweeter for the Redskins was spoiling what had been a festive night for Cowboys fans. The 65,207 fans – the team’s largest crowd in 10 years – were lured out partly by Washington, but mostly to watch Troy Aikman, Emmitt Smith and Michael Irvin join the team’s Ring of Honor.
While fans seemed mildly irritated by Parcells’ conservative game plan, and weren’t too happy about an early missed field goal and a missed chance for another kick just before halftime, nobody was too concerned.
Then Brunell got going.
On fourth-and-2 from the Washington 46, Brunell hit James Thrash for 20 yards. On fourth-and-15 from the Dallas 39, he threw a spiral that Moss ran under in the end zone.”
Hail To The Redskins…

Priceless
Is there a finer feeling in the world than humiliating the Dallas Cowboys at home? Sure, it’s been ten years, but who cares after two of the prettiest passes by a Redskins QB in who knows how long. It was all I could do to not wake up the whole neighborhood last night. What a game.
2-0, baby. It’s been so long, you almost forget what it feels like to wake up with a victory like this one.
Now, a bye week to get healthy, then it’s time for Seattle.
Left part way…
Heh, my friend Steve left the game three-quarters of the way through because the Redskins were getting beaten (and I didn’t even bother to show up to the annual game). Guess he’s celebrating today.

Incredible
I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t even get excited because I was so in shock. I figured there had to be something wrong.
What a comeback.
Their offense was so atrocious, but they pulled it together for 3 minutes and shocked everyone, including me.
