Late into the game Monday night it looked like just another loss for The Washington Redskins against the Dallas Cowboys. Saddled with a lackluster offense and a tired defense, the Skins trailed Dallas 13-0 with just a few minutes to go.
So I turned off the tube and went to bed — only to wake up this morning and discover the Skins came back to win the game 14-13.
What I missed, in my desire to put sleep over football, was the most exciting 1 minute, 11 seconds of football put together by the Redksins in years.
Suddenly, the Redskins are 2-0 and heading into a bye week. Hopefully, this isn’t a dream.
Well doh! I have three Tivos, which means a capability to record six channels at once and idiot me didn’t set a single one of them to get the game.
Thus far, I’ve only run across one person that watched the last five minutes of the game.
