    Twitter Me That


    Last week I wrote a blog called Twitter Me This, that detailed three separate incidents in the NFL last week. It was of particular interest to Redskin fans, because of the involvement of rookie Robert Henson – a now retired Twitterer..er. Read the rest of this entry »

    So, this chunk of blue stuff hits me on the head…


    Posted from Curmudgeon Corner, Maine.

    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. Read the rest of this entry »

    Of Gun Slingers and Mojo Lost


    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…  Read the rest of this entry »

    Twitter Me This


    Twitter and the NFL shared a lot of news headlines this week. It was inevitable; things like Twitter and Facebook updates, bring the world to Joe Q. Public in almost real time. There’s good and there’s bad with that. Read the rest of this entry »

    Michael Jordan, a Hall of Fame Speech and One Whiney Columnist


    Be like Mike? No thanks

    By Rick Reilly

    See what he did there with the headline? Clever! If we’re lucky this column will be filled with more “subtle” and “funny” references. Also, this is a ridiculous premise. You will never convince me some small part of the pasty white, nerdy and no longer culturally relevant Rick Reilly wouldn’t trade lives with the best basketball player ever.
