Things For Which We Should Be Thankful--Redskins Edition

• Brian Orakpo--We needed a kick ass pass rusher and we got one. He should pick up 10+ sacks this year
• (hmm, this is kind of difficult)
• (ummmmmm)
• The fact that I am still a fan--This season has, for lack of a better word, sucked. For this blog's sake, I wanted there to be ups and downs, with mostly ups, to chronicle the full range of emotions this team arouses. But the season has sucked, and has sucked in ways that other previous sucky seasons didn't suck. The fact that I am sticking with this team is a testament to my loyalty and devotion, and also suggests that I love a good soap opera--can't wait to see what happens next

• Its almost over--this season is almost over and we'll get to start anew with a new coach, new offensive line, and maybe even a shiny new General Manager who knows about football players
• That fake punt touchdown by Smith and Sellers was pretty nice
• The Santana Moss touchdown and Jarmon strip vs. Tampa was cool
• That New Orleans and Minnesota are probably superior to the Giants, Eagles, and Cowboys
