This Hognosticator thought he had seen a good game in Houston? It may have been, but it was nothing like the thriller last week against the Jags. Without question, an all-time classic. The biggest play of that game (other than Moss’s walk-off TD, of course) may not have been a football play at all, but … Read more
Over the last two years, we’ve heard quite a bit about Santana Moss, and deservedly so. Last year, as the only deep threat guy on the team, he stepped up and helped inspire a run of wins that vaulted the Redskins into the playoffs. Before that, however, many people, including some on this very board, … Read more
OK, while it may be hard for you to believe in a jolly fat guy with a white beard, who lives at the North Pole. Who once a year on December 24th delivers toys made by elf’s to every kid in the world by way of his sleigh guided by 9 reindeers (one with a … Read more
What follows is an answer to the chorus of complaints from the legions of fans tired of being distracted by “sensible” analysis, backed by “facts” and “knowledge.” If you seek shelter from the twin storms that are “reality” and “logic,” then this is your port of call. 1.

What a dog fight. Santana Moss pulls in a pass from Mark Brunell and breaks it for a 68-yard touchdown in overtime?

It’s not surprising that … Read more

Springs Likely to Miss Week 4 – Cornerback Shawn Springs sat out practice Thursday, nursing a groin injury suffered in practice last week. It was reported by the Associated Press that the injury will likely keep him out through Week 5 against the New York Giants as well. – Quarterback Mark Brunell missed most of … Read more
After the first three weeks that this Hognosticator has had (nine games out after three weeks), it may be wise to just check the picks and select the opposite. Last week was particularly brutal. Never in the two year history of Hognosticating and years before in other pools have the Hognosticator’s picks been below .500. … Read more
Last week we took a tour through some vintage Madden in his book One Knee Equals Two Feet and saw how a typical Raiders’ huddle would function while he was a head coach. Two plays, “Eighteen bob odd O” and “Ninety-one out flare seven,” would each convey 11 different assignments to the offense in 6 … Read more
