Photos: Clinton Portis Goes Sisqo-Style
Friday, July 24th, 2009These photos are about a month old, but have just surfaced thanks to a tweet from our favorite official Redskins blogger. Terl, who passed on posting them, says a tipster sent them along claiming they were taken at a “D.C. nightclub recently.” Which would make sense for the first photo, but the second one was [...]

Breaking: Fox Sports Outs Jason Whitlock as Erin Andrews’ Peeper
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009At least, I think that’s what’s going on here. I didn’t click on the link, mostly because I don’t want to read or see anything else involving Jason Whitlock. Or Erin Andrews, for that matter.
Although, if you’re curious, it’s my fault that the video of EA was released. Because I’m a blogger. And we’re all [...]
DMV: Skins Won’t Help the Fantasy Team
Thursday, July 23rd, 2009DMV is a daily roundup of District-Maryland-Virginia (mostly) sporting links.

“Eyebrows” Lannan gives the Nats the first win of the Riggleman era and the first shutout of his career. He now has a 2.88 ERA since April 12 and is 7-7 overall for a 27-66 team. And I love him. [WaPo]

Tuesday, July 21st, 2009As you may know, D.C. talk radio station WJFK relaunches this week as 106.7 the Fan with the Mike Wise Show airing middays. Wise, who we’ve criticized in the past, was kind enough to answer our questions. We’ll run part one (on radio stuff) today and part two (on writing, blogs, Twitter and Obama) if/when [...]
DMV: Epic Vale Posterizes Blake Griffin
Tuesday, July 21st, 2009DMV is a daily roundup of District-Maryland-Virginia (mostly) sporting links.
Considering how how badly I wanted the Wiz to win this year’s lottery, it’s bittersweet to see JaVale McGee doing this to the No. 1 pick:
Not the greatest dunk, and it’s three days old, but, hey, it’s July. Plus, if you watch from the beginning, there’s [...]
