As a younger fan, I have only made it to one training camp before this year.

2006 Training Camp: Quarterbacks

by

They are the ‘however’, the ‘but’ and the reason for caution in most Redskins previews. Their names have been accompanied by warnings often enough that we could call them the Caveat Crew. They are the Redskins quarterbacks. Their names and the accompanying warnings are familiar to most Redskins fans: Mark “He’s Old/Injured” Brunell, Todd “Journeyman/Who?” … Read more

Training Camp starts in about two weeks and it is time to look at players that are competing for the same spot. No one looks at the kickers, but this will be an important competition at Redskin Park through out this training camp. When looking at last years kicking game, many will wonder why ‘the … Read more

Redskins Radio

I’ve tried to contain my impatience as I peruse over the ever-growing message board posts and media articles taking an opportunity to take their shots at the new Redskins Radio. Really… I’ve tried. I’ve actually bitten off so much of my tongue that all I can really say on the matter anymore is… ‘Lah, blah-bla…. … Read more
