Well at least the Hognostication results were somewhat pleasurable for just about all the participants last week. However, for those of us that live and die by the burgundy and gold’s wins and losses, the last two weeks have been miserable. What makes it even more miserable is to have to listen to those that … Read more
The opening weekend proved to be a tough week for most home teams and for this Hognosticator! Congratulations to TincoSkin for being the first weekly winner of the official THN Hognostication Pool. Week 1 displayed a great job of hognosticating by the majority of the poolmeisters. Way to go! What’s amazing is how one week … Read more

What a tough weekend for Redskin fans and for hognosticating. The Redskins lost a game that they should have and could have won. The lack of depth at wide receiver and on the offensive line that we all knew about became all too obvious to everyone else on Saturday. If there is one sure thing … Read more
Someone pinch me; I must be dreaming. It’s mid-January and the Redskins are a win away from the Conference Championship. I have to admit, this team has far surpassed my expectations going into this season. I had thought it would take Gibbs until his third season to create a bona fide playoff contender, yet here … Read more
It’s time for Daniel Snyder to get his props not only for coaxing a Hall of Fame coach with nothing to prove out of retirement, but for now retaining Coach Williams with a record-breaking contract. What a pleasure to see some continuity on our sideline – hopefully for years to come. Way to go Mr. … Read more
The trouncing of the G-men was a wonderful Christmas present. What a great season this has turned out to be. Happy New Year to all. Here’s hoping we start if off with an injury free victory over Philthy. One more for five in a row and a well deserved and long awaited playoff birth! Denver … Read more
