Freakin’ Airlines

Heh, I spent 72 hours on the Landry vigil and finally decided to take a bit of a break from the site and all hell breaks loose.
As you have heard by now, Laron Landry is in camp.  I have to say my biggest disappointment was that he signed Sunday night (late Monday morning) and didn’t [...]

More Reason to Make Brunell a Coach

I’ve been on record even after his great game against the Cowboys two years ago that Brunell was not an NFL QB anymore.  And most people agree after last year. But there are still a surprising number of people in the blogosphere who like Brunell.  When the rumor came out that we might trade him [...]

That Sound You Hear…

…is the sound of my foot tapping while waiting for Laron Landry to sign. But first, a Redskin said the following today, any guesses on who it is?
“I’ll try to be smart. That’s tough for me, but I’ll try.”
Back to Landry, according to Redskins.com, Joe Gibbs said, “I’m expecting [the contract signing] to happen any [...]

A Digression

I’m sorry.  This has nothing to do with the Redskins or Washington.  But I couldn’t ignore it.  Today in Phoenix, two news helicopters crashed into each other trying to film a high speed chase for local news.  First, let me say that I feel for the families of all involved and that the following is [...]

Notes from the First Day of Camp

Not a lot of heavy news to report on the first day of camp.  I’m just happy every one is there and everybody’s happy.
Well almost everybody.  Laron Landry missed the first day but Redskins.com reported a signing was forthcoming both in this story and when Gibbs took the podium after practice.
An unexpected extra player came [...]

Do You Hear That?

Do you hear that?  Very quietly, very faintly, but as though it is coming closer…almost like a train approaching from the distance…its the sound of pads crunching into each other.  Its the sound of helmets knocking.  By the time you wake up and read this, training camp will be here.
Happy Football!

Pro Football Prospectus 2007

For any real football fan, Christmas really does come in July with the release of Pro Football Prospectus from the guys at footballoutsiders.com. Mine arrived yesterday and I immediately turned to the Redskins section and have been working my way around it ever since.
For those unfamiliar with the book, it is roughly the size of a phone [...]

Rookies!

I’ll admit it.  I love rookies.  I love upside.  Potential is one of my favorite words.  Check out my fantasy football rosters (which you will get to do soon) and you’ll see way too many young guys. So when Redskins.com did a little story on the 5 rookies to watch in training camp, I just [...]

Playoff Preview

Sorry for the delay, folks. The perils of having a baby in the house. We have to finish this little season preview today so we can get on to the business of celebrating the start of training camp.
Let’s look at the AFC first-
As you might recall, I predicted the Jets, Colts, Bengals and [...]

NFC East Preview

Every year for the last 4 or 5 years, I have found myself sitting with some friends. Sometimes it was after a fantasy football draft. Sometimes it was in the parking lot of Fed Ex before the opening game. But at any rate, it happened every year, the same group of friends [...]
