Bobby Johnson Comcast.
My hatred of Comcast is now complete.
It all started when Comcast got in a tiff with the NFL Network. Comcast removed NFL Network from it’s lineup. I was annoyed; but not upset. NFL Network’s Thursday night games were usually lousy match-ups, and at the time Bryant Gumble’s voice doing play-by-play grated on my nerves. He sounded like Kermit the frog…only not as intelligent.
It’s Monday, it’s a new Hockey season, that means it’s time to break out the Caps Recap!
The Caps had two games last week facing the Northeast Division Champion Boston Bruins in their season opener followed up by the familiar face of Ron Wilson and his Toronto Maple Leafs in their home opener. The Caps came out of the gate swinging scoring 10 goals in their first two games. Alex Ovechkin having three goals in his first two games is hardly a surprise, but for him to be tied with Brooks Laich certainly may raise some eyebrows.
The race for the cup starts here, so lets get to some recapping!
Okay, I get it, I get it. Sure those Lions weren’t the 0-16 Lions of last year.
Sure those Lions were only 0-2 this year.
Yes those Lions had 16 new starters, and a new head coach, but is that the best excuse we can come up with for why we lost?
“Well, they were a good team; better than people give them credit for.” That’s our response?
How are we ever supposed to beat “good teams” if we console ourselves after a loss…if we justify a loss by saying “oh, well, they were a good team.”
I wish I could say I knew what Jim Zorn was doing. I wish I could tell you that I see some sort of wonderful master-plan being hatched in the background; but I can’t.
Jim has lost me entirely.
Now before you get to thinking that I think Zorn is a complete idiot; he is not. However there were some things that happened this weekend that have me really worried about his coaching and leadership ability.
The Bartender asks; “Why the long face?”
How many of you realize that the Redskins actually won the game yesterday? Show of hands?
No seriously, they did.
Yes…they did. I wouldn’t lie to you, they won.
Yes, I know they only scored nine points, but nine is greater than seven.
Oh sure, they naysayers are saying “same old Redskins; only scored nine points. That won’t be enough to beat our tougher opponents.”
Consider this:
In my time on the message boards, I have noticed a trend that is kind of amusing.
There are some “fans” that live to be negative. They can’t say anything good about the team no matter what happens.
There were two things the Redskins needed to do yesterday to beat the Giants and the Redskins didn’t accomplish either of them.
Today is the eight-year anniversary of 9/11. I got a chance to visit New York earlier this year, and while I was there I got a chance to visit Ground Zero. Along the big fence that surrounds the site are photos of the site from the day of and morning after the attacks. Directly across … Read more
The Washington Redskins aren’t generating a lot of buzz this year, but maybe there’s some things that are being overlooked.
At the end of last season, many were ready to see Jason Campbell go the way of the Do-do. Many made it clear that they believe that Campbell is the problem with the Redskins offense (even though the stats don’t quite support that). Then, as soon as the Redskins show interest in another QB, some … Read more
