Friday, July 25th, 2008It’s unfortunate for all of us that the Redskins have completely banned Steinz from posting any video whatsoever from the Park, seeing as the Bog is the only place on the internet where I’ve seen interesting video from camp. But from this negative emerges a positive as Chris Cooley helps Steinz circumvent the Skins bullshit [...]
Zorn Breaks Out His Bag of Toys
Thursday, July 24th, 2008We first learned of the Zorn Star’s penchant for abnormal QB drills back in early June during the OTAs. Well, this week he broke them back out in force. Here is Colt Brennan and Jason Campbell playing a little dodgeball during practice on Tuesday (click for much larger image):
Look at JC’s cat-like reflexes and elusiveness! [...]
Men In Jorts and Skins Gear Are Drinking Out of Cones. It Must Be Football Season.
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008Unlike many politicians in D.C., The Mayor of FedEx Field is true to his word: He promised us “exclusive” DTC content all season and he has already started delivering. On Sunday night, The Mayor flooded the inboxes of Mottram, Inc. with a handful of tailgating videos from the Skins first day of the ‘08 training [...]
Nats Overpay for Fat SS, Trade Best RP
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008The Nats love rewarding overweight 30-somethings in the midst of late-career years with new deals (see: Dmitri Young, Ronnie Belliard), and, by giving Christian Guzman a two-year, $16 million contract, it’s evident they’ll continue buying high and keeping expectations low.
The other big news of the day is they shipped Jon Rauch to Arizona for switch-hitting [...]
Lost Treasure Found: The Posse Poster
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008Many thanks to The Player Hater’s Ball for posting the lost, “locally famous” Posse poster. I’d forgotten all about the Cowboys on the side. Bamas.

A Heath Shuler Jersey Pisses Excellence
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008I very well may have sold this dude that jersey (via Straight Cash Homey) while working at the Champ’s Sports in Tyson’s Corner during the summer of ‘94, and, for that, I’m sorry.
Even with the Desmond Howards sitting there in the clearance bin, serving as a gentle warning, the Shulers were just flying off [...]
Skins Rookies Are Unaware of The Posse
Tuesday, July 22nd, 2008Malcolm Kelly and Devin Thomas are pleased to meet the Redskins faithful:
Of course Art Monk + Gary Clark + Ricky Sanders = The Posse. I know that because I had a Posse poster in my bedroom. It was a picture of the trio, each with a horse, posed in front of the Capitol at night, [...]
How Not to Catch a Foul Ball at Camden
Monday, July 21st, 2008Just like this fan at the O’s game on Saturday night, I always get so mixed-up on this whole “foul ball” thing. Do you use your hands to catch the ball and protect your face, or is it the other way around?:
Ah, yes, of course: You use your face to protect your hands. Thanks for [...]
It’s Lindsay Czarniak Bobblehead Night!
Monday, July 21st, 2008I’m trying to think of an adjective to describe this, and the only one I keep coming back to is “weird,” though Steinz went with “brilliant.” Either way, it’s official: NBC4 sports anchor Lindsay Czarniak is kind of a big deal as she’s completed the transformation from being George Michael’s Sports Machine backup to having [...]
Taylor, Not Favre, Is the Skins’ Big Catch
Monday, July 21st, 2008Jason Taylor is good, Jason Taylor is old and Jason Taylor is a Washington Redskin. He doesn’t come cheap either, costing the reigning NFC Wild Card — it’s a big deal! — a second-rounder in ‘09 and a sixth in ‘10. And, after it all comes out in the wash, I like it a lot. [...]
