Kevin of www.sidelionreport.com just interviewed me for the Detroit Lions edition of Fansided.com. He was very gracious in his line of questioning. He opened with a very interesting question, which I’m now going to ask other Skins’ fans to comment on in this blog space. Did the Lions win the game or did the Redskins [...]

What you see is what you get. You are what your record says you are. Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Did anyone get the license number of that truck? Have I left anything out? Oh yea: “I didn’t think …”; “I felt …”. Those last two were uttered by Jim Zorn during his post-game presser. Never-mind what [...]

He who controls the clock, controls the game. Well, maybe not. Well, maybe. Heck, I don’t know. This edition of the Redskins defies convention. Fortunately, they’re playing a Lions’ team which, while not making many mistakes, had committed a couple of strategic penalties. Jason Campbell, meanwhile, has had trouble holding onto the ball. He’s only [...]

Good things come to those who wait, or so the saying goes. That’s a good thing, because I have rarely been as frustrated watching a game as I was today during the first half. I didn’t know who to be mad at, frankly. The Head Coach and the Quarterback came to mind, but the Skins [...]

Hey there Lions’ fans – all three of you. You’re so hospitable, and your team can be so accomodating. Detroit (Ford Field, the Silverdome, whereever) can feel like a home game to every team in the league except the Lions. After all, visiting teams’ fans can take their pick of seats close to the action. (It’s been [...]

Redskins’ lore is filled with faces of the team: Baugh, Battles, (both before my time), Jurgenson, Huff, Lombardi, Mitchell, Allen, Taylor, Hanburger, Fischer, McDole, , Talbert, Brown, Kilmer, Riggins, Theismann, Houston, Green, Gibbs, Monk – you get the idea. Through the years, the Washington edition of the Redskins (Pro [...]

I’m confused. I admit it. Jason Campbell played well today. The Redskins outgained the Rams by more than 100 yards. They had 7 more first downs than the Rams, and possessed the ball for almost 10 more minutes. They ran 20 more plays than the Rams. The penalties and turnovers were almost even. I [...]
