After having to sit out the first Sunday of the NFL calendar, the Redskins finally get to open the season Monday evening against the Eagles.
Evening, as in the period of time between afternoon and night. Not 6 a.m. You know, in the morning.
Obviously, that didn't stop enthusiastic fans from tailgating before dawn.
