Thursday, September 25th, 2008Ever the cunning entrepreneurs, we decided to create shirts that read “Portis Pockets Straight” last week, a quote from Clinton’s-air tiff with Brian Mitchell. Apparently, word got back to the folks at The John Thompson Show, who yesterday had this exchange during their weekly interview with CP:
Thompson: You know what I did Clinton after the [...]
Yeah, the NFC East Is the SEC of the NFL
Thursday, September 25th, 2008Not only did the NFC East send three teams to the playoffs each of the past two seasons, but they very well may do it again this year with a fourth team — your Washington Redskins — in the top half of the league.
Through three weeks, the division’s combined record is 10-2 with the two [...]
Matt Millen Is a High-Waisted Sweats Guy
Thursday, September 25th, 2008The long overdue firing of Matt Millen is cause for celebration in Detroit and presents an opportunity to remind Skins fans that, at least for the Super Bowl season of ‘91, he’s one of us. And based on that year’s Pro Line, he dresses a lot like your (OK, my) high school weight training teacher.
Jason Taylor Could’ve, Like, Died, Maaan
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008The Spy Sourcerer himself, Jason La Canfora, has some more info about the freak injury Jason Taylor suffered during the game on Sunday. It seems that it could’ve been much, much more serious:
[Taylor] was told by doctors that with any further delay “you would be done forever.” Taylor said at the time the surgery [...]
Larry Michael: La Canfora Could Be a Spy
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008We wish this was satire. But we’re afraid it’s not. Here is, verbatim, what Larry Michael said on Comcast’s Redskins Nation yesterday:
And again, it really smacks of unprofessionalism, and a big concern that I have is that he’s in this building, ok? Uh, what stops him from leaking—with this hateful spirit that he has—what stops [...]
It’s Art Monk Football Camp in Zubaz!
Wednesday, September 24th, 2008Because Redskins artifacts dated 1982-92 bring me great joy, we’ve already posted the Art Monk Football Camp hat in mesh, but this Zubaz version takes it to a new level entire:
Beautiful, and it comes via Bog Man Dan, who spied it at Sunday’s tailgate and emails in lowercase shorthand:
25 year old eben altmann from rockville, [...]
JMU Is No Campus for Old Men
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008Finally! We’ve heard from JMU sports correspondent Rob Abbott, who was at JMU’s epic victory over top-ranked Appalachian State on Saturday night. His first-hand account follows and is worthwhile for anyone who went to JMU and/or has partied in a college town well past their college years. Enjoy …
Cerrato vs. La Canfora Beef Continues
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008We all know by now that Vinny Cerrato started his little bi-weekly radio show last week, because, shit, it’s not like he has anything better to do. At least if he’s busy on the radio four hours a week that’s less time for him to fuck up any personnel decisions. Friday’s show was, by all [...]
Dickerson Is Rec Specs and Turtlenecks
Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008I’d like to thank ‘87 Topps for two things: 1) being the last great Topps football set of my youth and 2) reminding us of how great Eric Dickerson really is, and how ridiculous he looks.
In Which We Attempt to Understand Why Heyer Was Flagged on Thomas’ TD
Monday, September 22nd, 2008This play seems to be the No. 1 topic of discussion in the aftermath of the Skins win yesterday: the touchdown pass from Campbell to Devin Thomas to put the Skins up by two TDs with 8:38 left to play, which was called back thanks to an unnecessary roughness penalty on Stephon Heyer. But having [...]
