I’ve been wondering this for a while now Redskins fan’s. How can you be a HTTR (clever acronym of hater…moron’s) of a team that is consistently in the bottom of the NFC East & the joke of the NFL nearly every season? I’m a Giants fan, so of course I can call people HTTR’s who say that the Giants were lucky to win the SB, or we were lucky with the Tyree catch, or we were lucky the Pats didn’t catch that Hail Mary pass. Now those are HTTR’s….hating on a team that is consistently below .500 seems like its just speaking the truth, not “hating”. If your team does a bunch of dumb moves & wins only 6 games a year, I’m going to call you out on it & tell you your team blows. That’s it….oh, and Shanahan is definitely the most overrated coach in the game. Good luck next year Skins….you’ll need it.
===================================
Seriously?

HTTR does not mean Hater, come on man. Oh, and 2 or your team’s losses came from the skins in 2011. See you next season.

HAIL

The Redskins are making solid moves…they did overpay for Garcon but other than that, they’re filling holes and spending money wisely. Even if you’re a biased fan, you have to recognize that.

So, you are saying that they should not sign Rackers but instead use one of their late round draft picks to select a rookie kicker?

This is what happens when you have a “one note schtick” and just keep writing it over and over again without regards to any context at all.

With the kind of close games the Skins have consistently lost in the last few seasons, this signing may very well translate to 1 or 2 more wins that the team wouldn’t have had without Rackers.

I remember when this guy couldnt kick an extra point let alone a game winning field goal but he could always kick the ball to Akron. He has worked and developed into a top 10 kicker, this is a good sign for the skins a real upgrade over Gano.

HTTR is not an acronym for hater. It means Hail To The Redskins. Which is the team’s fight song, it is played and sang whenever they score. As a Giants fan you should be fairly familiar with the song, you heard it enough last year while getting swept. The joke of the NFL as you call them isn’t so funny now.

Apparently Redskins fans failed to watch Rackers last year…all his misses were important kicks. And forget about any FG over 50 yards too.

Good riddance Neil.

Has nothing do do with hating you dense chump
To see you even admit that you have been “wondering this for a while now”. Clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed. Let me ease your pain before you hurt yourself. HAIL TO THE REDSKINS. Idiot.

Rackers was 80% from over 50 in 2011. He made 4 out of 5 attempts.

We did appreciative you rackers, but you can’t consistently make anything over 45 yards anymore, we’ll be fine with the rookie from Texas A&M, good luck in DC, I guess you don’t care about the playoffs

@sicklife1

“HTTR” means Hail To The Redskins, genius.

Nice little essay though. I’m sure you needed a nap afterwards.

And don’t even get started on the s**t talk about a “terrible” team that yours couldn’t even beat in the regular season. Guess it’s a good thing yall didn’t have to come through fedex on your way to the Super Bowl. See yall next year.

HTTR means hail to the Redskins, so before you call anyone a moron lets think about what we said, go back and apologize to your parents for ever being born, and then slide a gun barrel in your mouth and kill yourself for ever saying anything so obnoxious and lame

“I’ll be competing for a job with Graham Gano, who is an established, good kicker.” So did he say this without bursting out laughing? If so most impressive.

I thought Gano wasn’t so bad, the blocking up front on special teams was bad…Ethan Albright, Washington misses you!!!

Skins might keep Gano and Rackers. Gano for kickoffs and 50+ yard fg’s and Rackers for shorter stuff.

If I were a Redskins fan I would be scared. Didn’t he choke on the field goal in the last seconds of the game in Arizona in ’06 that the Bears won despite Rex Grossman?
====================================
Are you going back six seasons to find a negative career moment? Are you serious?

If I were BearsFan, I’d be far more concerned about a team that needs Jay Cutler to stay upright to win…and I only had to go back one season to remember that.

set a team record with 135 points, and nailed 5 from beyond the 50 yard line. well obviously he’s a bad kicker with a weak leg… -_-

Deadskins will be last in the division this year, neither the coach or the owner have a clue. This is where a players career dies.

You’re late. That was when Vinny Cerrato was running the show. Those happy days are over for you. Allen and Shanahan have more sense.

Redskins cut Gano and sign Rackers because he is more consistent. Texans sign Gano because they now need a kicker. Seems like a probable sequence of events.

This is the trickle down theory. The excitement of RGLeaf is helping to attract free agents. Whooptie-do! They will still find a way to have drama and problems. These are not your father’s Redskins.

You’re actually a Cleveland Downs fan talking smack?! Lmao this doesn’t even warrant a punch line response just go away lol
