« Previous EntriesStrahan Leads Three Cheers for Skins
Wednesday, October 8th, 2008I try to avoid all NFL pregame shows like the plague — especially ones that feature Terry Bradshaw, Howie Long, Michael Strahan and Jimmy Johnson on the same set — so I missed this on Sunday. Here’s Strahan, who you may recall played for the Giants, leading a “hip hip hooray” cheer after discussing Jason […]
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 […]
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 […]
B-Mitch Wants to ‘Step to’ Clinton Portis
Wednesday, September 17th, 2008Clinton Portis is good at football and Brian Mitchell is not good at broadcasting, so you know which side I’m taking in this battle for respect. (Plus, B-Mitch be hatin’.) Aside from that, there’s not much to add to what’s already a must-hear interview from yesterday’s John Thompson Show.
Portis vs. B-Mitch on the John Thompson […]
The Only Thing Worse Than Signing Jeff George Would Be Wearing His Jersey
Friday, September 12th, 2008It takes balls to write a column in Kansas City stumping for your has-been friend from Indiana to get a job in New England, but that’s exactly what Jason Whitlock does in an open letter to Bill Belichick:
“You need Jeff George. Yes, that Jeff George, the No. 1 pick in the 1990 draft, the guy […]
Redskins Cut Frost, Spark Lame Column
Monday, September 1st, 2008I blame Mike Wise for this. I mean, it’s not his fault that former Redskins punter Derrick Frost thought there was an open competition for the job this preseason. And it’s not Wise’s fault that Frost popped off upon getting cut in favor of rookie Durant Brooks. But it his fault for writing an incendiary, […]
On Zorn Playing His Starters and the Only Redskins Position Battle That Matters
Tuesday, August 26th, 2008“It sounds like Redskins head coach Jim Zorn is about to break an unwritten — and wise — code in the final game of the preseason: He’s going to try to win.“ — ESPN blogger Matt Mosley
I’m not sure how Mr. Mosley reaches his final verdict, but it is true that Zorn Star may play […]
WaPo’s Tracee Hamilton Deserves a Gold Medal For Olympic Blogging
Saturday, August 23rd, 2008In the two weeks these Games have been going on, I hadn’t once checked out The Washington Post’s Heavy Medal Olympics blog — guess I was busy reading real, actual content from Steinberg at the D.C. Beijing Sports Smog Bog Blog. But this morning, Jamie alerted me to this post about the US baseball team, […]
