I was stationed at the Arlington Annex of the Pentagon 1992-1994 and lived in Alexandria, then Manassas.  Had Government training in DC in 2007-2008.  Skins fans are fanatics for sure.  Don't care for the area though.  Horrible traffic and very high cost of living.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/202576</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/202576</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[DieHardBrownsFan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 21 Oct 2010 12:43:29 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Greetings from our Nation's Capital on Wed, 20 Oct 2010 18:38:27 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/dcdiplomat" aria-label="Profile: dcdiplomat">@<bdi>dcdiplomat</bdi></a> <a href="/post/202304">said</a>:</p>He is inconsistent.

The Browns have a great history and have had some great players and coaches, including your namesake. I mean, how great a coach do you have to be to have a team named after you? </p>

<p>
Paul Brown great.</p>

<p>
Tell that to the Steelers fans, and most recently the Saints fans coming on here who feel that when the Browns dominated it was in an inferior league.  Nevermind a lot of what you see in today's offenses was pioneered by Paul Brown.  I wish our current Browns would take a few plays out of his old playbook.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/202315</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/202315</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[djdawg2010]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 20 Oct 2010 18:38:27 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Greetings from our Nation's Capital on Wed, 20 Oct 2010 18:27:32 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/djdawg2010" aria-label="Profile: djdawg2010">@<bdi>djdawg2010</bdi></a> <a href="/post/202285">said</a>:</p>Hey welcome.

<p>
I am glad to the skins playing decent ball again its amazing what a good coach can do!</p>
<p>
To bad we didnt go for shanahan, now thats a guy that has a proven track record as an offensive head coach...</p>

<p>
Some are natural head coaches and leaders of men..</p>
<p>
Some are not head coaching material but incredible coordinators...</p>
<p>
And others are just natural born ball boys and gofers and nothings...</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/201803</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/201803</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Gips]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 19 Oct 2010 16:04:38 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to Greetings from our Nation's Capital on Tue, 19 Oct 2010 00:39:49 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p>Hehe, yeah, I remember that game.

<p>
Yes, having Shanahan here is amazing. Jim Zorn is a good enough QB Coach, but he was in way over his head. We're all hoping that Dan Snydner has figured out how to run a ball club.</p>

<p>
The only good thing about the Redskins recent fortunes is that we know who's on board and who's not. I was born just nine months after Super Bowl XXVI, so all I really know is failure. I know it has been awhile since you guys have see the mountain top (I promise not to say the "Elway" word around here), but the NFL is ever changing.</p>

See the link I just posted? You managed to beat us in 2008 with your old HC and a horrible QB.
