The Washington Redskins have become a circus… it’s true. Annually, since the onset of the Snyder ownership, one can count on the annual return of the Washington Redskins Travelling 3 Ring Drama.

I sure didn’t see it coming.
This is Dallas week… You put your best team www.ourtadalafil.com/ on the field THIS week. You TRY to win this game… no matter how slim you see your chances. You try. Period. Right???
Bench McNabb? For Sexy Rexy?????
The Future “Beloved” Daniel Snyder???

Much discussion about General Managers on Redskins fan boards these days… it’s pretty much a (note: I said “a” not “the”) common denominator.
Brrrrrr… It's cold in Denver…

It’s official. The National Sports Media’s “Jim Zorn Getting’ Fired” Vigil has officially begun. When a Redskins1 sighting in Denver began a feeding frenzy of undercover press stakeouts outside the home of Mike Shanahan, the drooling over the still conscious body of the Redskins coach moved into high gear.
So, this chunk of blue stuff hits me on the head…

Ouch… you call that a “get right game?”
Can it possibly be as bad as it seems? 3 weeks ago, I was ok… they didn’t look great against the Giants, but, what the heck… I didn’t actually expect them to win at Rutherford, now did I? Last week… a win that was as close to a failure as a win can possibly be. The Ram’s “ineptitude” was exceeded only by that of the Lions, yet we were but an interception away from being down 10-9 at the end of the game. Real questions began to arise about Zorn’s competence as a play caller. I’m left anxious about the next game with the Lions, especially in light of the fast start the Lions had against the Vikes.
Today… disaster. I have seen Chicken Little… and he looks an awful lot like someone I know.

Maybe I should be posting from the Peoples Republic of FedEx Field?
Dan Steinberg’s “DC Sports Bog” (before you get any ideas, that is exactly how he spells it) tells the tale of Danny’s trashing of old policies, pretty clearly in an attempt to prevent fan opinion from being expressed on national TV. What the heck is with that???? He apparently had guards enforcing the new “No Signs” policy, that according to one fan, permitted signs as of Sunday night, per Redskins.com. However, by the time he reached the field, the rule had been changed. Perhaps Komrad Snyder has thin skin, no?

Shudder…
I have this recurring nightmare.
Ford Stadium is rocking. Redskins ball, third down, 9 yards to go. The thunderous voices of all 6542 Lions fans in the house are drowning out Jason Campbell’s efforts to audible out of the option pass called by coach. Sonny is in the booth screaming “It won’t work!” Sam Huff chuckles “He’ll bench you, Sonny”.
The ball is snapped anyway… ughhhhhhh…

I have no idea what to think. My Redskins just held to Cowboys to 7 points. My Redskins carried a lead into the fourth quarter, against the Cowboys, at their house. I should be happy. Yet, I find myself wondering “so, what?”
The problem was, that lead consisted of 6 points. Six lousy points, on two field goals. I can’t entirely blame Zorn, this time. The patched up offensive line took another blow, with the loss for the year of yet another lineman. The second string running back, who had knocked them dead last week with a clutch performance, went down with a season ending knee injury.
There's an App for That!
The Washington Redskins have announced that they have teamed with Brain-Soft, a McLean, VA software developer to create and market an i-Phone application intended to assist fans in attendance at the game to actually call the next play! The app is intended not only to call offensive plays, but the defense as well…
