No where near the ledge.

PrintI am needing to vent - so I'll take the plunge and do it through a diary. I'm still a little numb - but I'll try to get past the emotions of the exit tonight and actually write something that is coherent.
The loss tonight did not surprise me. I am not like some of the guys that post on BTB that said our woes the last month of the season were not that big a deal because they did not mean as much.
EVERY game means something in the NFL. If you can't get up for a season finale against a division rival, there is a bigger problem. If your not playing for the win - at least play for some pride. That is a reflection on the coaching. And for that matter - so were all the penalties tonight. We have finished poorly the past 3 seasons and that is a BIG deal.
As for Tony - let me say first that he IS our QB of the future. I think he has shown promise and he is a good guy. He had a great year - and deserves the recognition from such a season. Now here's what dissapoints me about him. He lost his composure tonight. He was not a leader on the field. Yeah, he had guys in his face all night - but he also made some silly mistakes. I can forgive the mistakes - he earned that. What I can't stand is that he loses his cool in the same 2 week period that he took a vacation to mexico. I know..... a bunch of you think it was no big deal. But at the end of the day, I feel the same way about that as I do all of his celebrity crap - it just does not sit right. Listen to what the ex-player commentaters said - the ones we respect. They said they would not have gone on vacation. I'm just fed up with all the celebrity crap - and nobody can deny that Tony completely embraces it. i still say - make your news on the field, not off of it.
I started this diary wanting to put down several more thoughts - but I am mentally drained and feeling better now that I vented about Tony Romeo.
Grizz - it seems like yesterday that I was reading all your training camp postings. Thanks for staying solid all season and giving us a place to find centralized coverage.

I hate it
That we lost this one!
I agree with you 100%
I hope that I never hear the term "meaningless" game again when preparing a run for the super bowl. I thought that Wade was too defensive when questioned about not making any effort to game plan the Skins. Some of our fellow fans have been critical of the giant's massive effort against the Pats...I hope that we have learned something from them!
you're wrong about Romo
he showed a lot of heart out there when the rest of the offense was falling apart around him, the trip to Mexico had absolutely nothing to do with that and anyone who knows anything about football knows that to be true.
