In his first year, Scot has definitely improved the talent. But you say the team stinks, so does the rest of the NFC East. I never would have thought, even as bad as the division is that the Skins would be in the thick of the playoff race in mid-December. I thought 7-8 wins, slow and steady improvement with a bigger jump next season. They still need a ton, i.e. safeties, corners, linebacker, a center, and a tall receiver but I have more confidence in this team than I did a year or two ago.

Skins are still a bad team, but they are improving. We're a lot deeper and have quite a few talented young players to build around.

Cousins isn't the problem with the team right now. He's more than good enough to win with if you give him any sort of help. I'm okay with giving him a reasonable 3-4 year contract.

I know it's not April 1st, so you must mean it. What, you think yer better than us? You just might be. It's been a real pleasure arguing with you for what seem like a whole lot of years and just since yesterday all at the same time. Sincere best wishes to you in your future endeavers. Seems like we should get ol' Abe to present you with a cake right now. Big sigh.

I'm close as well, love the people here just the tech has run its course. The experience hasn't changed for over a decade now.

And honestly, you'd do me a huge favor by just banning me.

Shyt, I didn't realize it was a suspension. Whatever happened, it doesn't have to be permanent. Please take a break for a week or whatever, take care of it, and come back.

Damn....dat is one of the first guys I remember reading when I was just a lurker. One of the best. :(

I'm not really much of a message board person anymore. I used to post on ExtremeSkins, but now I really only post on RealGM while occasionally browsing Washington Nationals Fan Forum.

Missed watching the CHA game last night as we were out doing a whole family celebration of the wedding anniversary of my wife and I. I must say, it was a really wonderful night.

Happy anniversary babe. Love you lots!

What did you think? The reviews from my party were split, but I liked it. And I've grown to like it even more as I've had time to reflect on it. Gonna see it again soon!

I enjoyed it. Good story, plenty of action, interesting new characters. Good solid movie. Waaaaay better then the prequels for sure.

And the chick who plays Rey....I'm engaged but :kiss

So, I started watching the Caps play, and they're like... better than good. I'm still no hockey expert or even a 4th line hockey guy, but this guy Oshie they got - whatever they had to give up to get him - he's worth it. Strong skilled puck handler with offensive skills. That gives them a 3rd guy to go with Ovechkin and Backstrom that can share the load come playoffs time. This might be the year they win it all.

Yeah my girl is a HUGE Hockey/Caps fan and she's gotten me more into them over the last few years. I'm still no expert by any means but even newbs like me can sense the potential greatness of this team. I was watching the game Sunday night against our arch rival Rangers and we went from down 3-1 to winning the game 7-3. That's like the Wizards being down 15 and then coming back to win by 30. Just incredible.

If Ovechkin can win a Cup in D.C., and bring this city a much deserved championship, he will officially be a GOD.
