In many ways, Riggo is acting like some sort of senator or ambassador for the aggrieved Redskins fans. He’s the NFL’s Alan Grayson.

Football Asserts Dominance Over Baseball, Again

Pigskin is our pastime.
The question of the most popular sport on television has been long answered, but football put an exclamation point on it Sunday when a regular season N.F.L. game was far more watched than Game 4 of the World Series.
Both events had huge audiences, but the game between the Green Bay Packers and [...]

Steve Coll On The Reign Of Daniel Snyder

The owner, Daniel Snyder, is widely reviled in Washington, and for good reason. He meddles, bullies, and trusts his own football judgment too much. John Kent Cooke, who ran the team before Snyder purchased it about a decade ago, remarked recently that Snyder had “destroyed the franchise.” Fans did not generally receive this comment as [...]
Dan Snyder Accomplishes The Impossible

Redskins fans abandoning the team. For many of you not familiar with this region and the Skins, this is unprecedented.
There are other signs that as some Washingtonians stand by their floundering team, which is 2-4 in regular-season play, others are standing a little farther downwind. Nielsen ratings show that the average TV viewership of game [...]

So, in their brilliance, Snyder and Cerrato have now stripped play-calling duties from Jim Zorn.
SURELY THAT WILL SOLVE IT.
Look, FIRE THE GUY. And SELL THE TEAM.
The Redskins are a joke in the NFL and games like this DON’T HELP.
Great Game For The Redskins

I don’t know what everyone is complaining about. That was a great game by the Redskins. They beat the Cleveland Browns 42-17! Mark Rypien looked great, passing for 190 yards and Ricky Ervins punched in 2 TDs.
I smell Super Bowl.
(What’s that you say? I’m living in the past? I’m talking about the 1991 Redskins and [...]

Bwahahaha.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell failed to offer support of Rush Limbaugh’s bid to buy the Rams on Tuesday and said the talk-show host’s ‘divisive comments’ would not be welcome in the league.
‘I’ve said many times before, we’re all held to a high standard here,’ Goodell told reporters, via the New York Times.

I’m not sure what’s lower: Rush Limbaugh’s approval rating in the African American community or JaMarcus Russel’s passer rating. But in a league of professional athletes who are mostly African American and come from humble backgrounds, a Limbaugh-owned Rams team would neither elicit the warmest reception by the players in the locker room, nor would [...]

Former WR Keenan McCardell on how Rush Limbaugh owning a team could make the Rams worse:
Rush Limbaugh would definitely hurt the St. Louis Rams if he bought the team. I can only judge what he says on the radio – but the way he talks makes me think he’s a racist.
The NFL is a dominant [...]
Rich Gannon Fail

I didn’t get to see it, but apparently Rich Gannon made a major fubar during the Cleveland-Cincinatti game yesterday, expressing concern that a quick Bengals score would give the Browns time to come back.
In over time.
In sudden death over time.
That is NFL 101. It’s not like Gannon played in the NFL for 17 years. Oh [...]

Oh they looked sloppy as hell and Jim Zorn should still be fired and Jason Campbell should be benched after those 4 picks he threw, but hey – the Redskins won!
Maybe one day they could score 20 points. And maybe they could beat someone by 10 or more. SOMEDAY.
ALSO: NFL Redzone was pretty neat. Not [...]
