Two minutes to go in the game so I hope I don’t jinx us, but I don’t see how I can. Playoffs, baby! And we’re the hottest team in the NFC right now. It wouldn’t suprise me any if Vegas actually listed us as the favorite.
I won’t crow too loudly over the Cowboys fans, because [...]

Used to be that in the old days that while the Cowboys were called “America’s Team” it was the Redskins that were hot in the capitol. Every politician was a Redskins fan even if they had to tell their constituents back home they cheered for the home team. At least for one political blogger, we’re [...]

Clinton Portis was named NFC offensive player of the week for week 16. Congrats to Clinton. I don’t have too much to say except that I’m sorry that I posted that I would rather have Adrian Peterson. Thanks for a big game, CP.

OK, the wrapping paper is finally picked up from around the tree. The eggnog hangover is just about gone. Santa Claus is spending a week in the hot tub before he starts cranking out more Wiis. We took care of business on Sunday night.
Now that that is all out of the way, bring on the Cowboys [...]

Who runs the Redskins official website? A closet Cowboy’s fan? If you guys haven’t seen it, Redskins.com is running a poll asking who is a better RB, Clinton Portis or Adrian Peterson.
Look, I love CP. Every patient off tackle play where he puts his hand on the back of a pulling guard and waits for [...]

I thought it was fun when ESPN showed those stats about Romo having a bad game when Jessica Simpson and Carrie Underwood were at the game. And, of course, like any normal person (this excludes radio talk show hosts, guys from Around the Horn, and any other talking head) I chalked it up as a funny [...]

In a nice way to go out, Sean Taylor, along with Chris Samuels and Chris Cooley, was named to the Pro Bowl today. The sad thing, of course, is that he won’t be there to bury another punter.
I can’t really complain about any other Skins not getting named. I do think London Fletcher deserves to [...]

What a win! The second easiest game of the year (behind the Detroit game) and proof that for 7 out of 8 quarters against the Giants we have outclassed them. This game makes all the close loses feel even crappier as we should have been one the teams clinching this week.
As it is, we’re right [...]
