Taylor Tribute: Wild Card in Skins vs. Giants

Posted by Erik Wemple on Nov. 28, 2008, at 4:27 pm

A few years back, the Giants handed the Redskins one of the most lopsided defeats---36-0--- in the history of this great rivalry. Commentators attributed the result to the fact that Giants owner Wellington Mara, a beloved figure for the G-men, had just recently passed away. The guys were playing this one for their man.

On Sunday, the Redskins are planning a pre-game tribute to the late, great Sean Taylor, the hard-hitting safety who was shot to death a year ago in his Miami home. Will the Skins turn the tables on the Mara nightmare?

   I'm watching the game...so far, this theory is falling flat.

   The Skins are mediocre. I like Zorn, but Snider has bad karma & will never win anything. Maybe in 40 or 50 years when Snider finally sells the team, the Skins will have a good team & go past the first round in the playoffs.
   See you in 2048!
