Preseason Week 2: Blacked Out

Week 2 of the preseason, I found myself in Texas, mid-way through a road trip to Arizona. En route to Fort Worth, we stopped in Arlington to pay a visit to Jerry World. That, sadly, was the highlight of my football experience in Texas. The NFL Network listed the Redskins vs. Bears match-up on the schedule until just before kick-off when the broadcast disappeared. Blacked out. And so I sat in a sports bar in Fort Worth, surrounded by Cowboys fans while my Twitter feed (and texts from my mother of all people) shared the news of our terrible performance in Chicago. Perhaps it is better the game was blacked out... At least my consolation prize was having the Nationals and Orioles games on side-by-side.
