separating the men from the 'boys

Washington's greatest perennial battles are about to be rejoined. First up: Cowboys vs. Redskins.

On one side, embarassingly underskilled yet widely venerated warriors from Texas with a fondness for cocaine and a laughable macho frontier aesthetic. On the other, profligate spenders with a lackluster track record who, while competent, are clearly less able than many of their divisional rivals. Their very name leaves a bad taste in the mouths of many supporters -- but what choice do we have?

Come watch the spectacle with me tonight, Monday, 9PM, and then on Thursday, the same thing but with podiums. If you've got any ideas about good places to get cheap drinks and yell at the TV (preferably in the U/14th, Dupont or MCI Center neighborhood), I'm still looking for suggestions.

UPDATE: Yeah, we're lazy. Our place, unless someone complains, in which case I could be convinced to drag my sorry carcass into the rainy night. Either way, feel free to drop by.

The Boys are gonna smother you like a smallpox-laden blanket. I'll be at Final Pub Quiz for the first half or so, but I'd definitely like to boast about the superior stock and character of my state wherever you're watching the game.

Guilt-tripped into pub quiz? Dammit. Maybe we'll just give into laziness and watch the game here, since it's halfway between your place and pub quiz and I'm feeling broke anyway. Charles, Jon, what're your thoughts?

Watching at our place sounds good to me. It will be cheaper and easier. Also, considering that we will be watching with Kriston, I wouldn't want him to suffer the humility of the impending defeat in public.

Strangely enough, Saint-Ex is showing the game tonight. That seems...odd.

Nah, not really. Redskins fans, you know, they enjoy a mimosa and a little Le Tigre with their game. Who put the bom, Tom?
