If I Were a Full-Time Redskins Blogger I Would...
I love the Washington Redskins. All day long I dream about ‘Skins (A.D.I.D.A.S. - Remember, JC Chasez solo album? Me neither). I’m already losing sleep about the MNF game and it’s only Wednesday. So, I need to release all this anxiety and pent up energy. I’m pretty sure I’ll be blogging ‘Skins everyday until the Superbowl. If you don’t like it, move to...

RNC shells out $150K for Palin fashion
The Republican National Committee has spent more than $150,000 to clothe and accessorize vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and her family since her surprise pick by John McCain in late August. According to financial disclosure records, the accessorizing began in early September and included bills from Saks Fifth Avenue in St. Louis and New York for a combined $49,425.74. The records also...
What It Look Like
So, Eunice and I have been looking for an English Bulldog to add to our family. If you know of any good breeders or rescue organizations let us know.
In the mean time, here’s an example of a bully that scares us and would probably be a bad fit:
Make Believe Maverick (Pt. 3)
“HE IS HOTHEADED” Over the years, John McCain has demonstrated a streak of anger so nasty that even his former flacks make no effort to spin it away. “If I tried to convince you he does not have a temper, you should hang up on me and ridicule me in print,” says Dan Schnur, who served as McCain’s press man during the 2000 campaign. Even McCain admits to an...
Make Believe Maverick (Pt. 2)
BOTTOM GUN In the cockpit, McCain was not a top gun, or even a middling gun. He took little interest in his flight manuals; he had other priorities. “I enjoyed the off-duty life of a Navy flier more than I enjoyed the actual flying,” McCain writes. “I drove a Corvette, dated a lot, spent all my free hours at bars and beach parties.” McCain chased a lot of tail. He hit the...
Make Believe Maverick (Pt. 1)
At Fort McNair, an army base located along the Potomac River in the nation’s capital, a chance reunion takes place one day between two former POWs. It’s the spring of 1974, and Navy commander John Sidney McCain III has returned home from the experience in Hanoi that, according to legend, transformed him from a callow and reckless youth into a serious man of patriotism and purpose....
Long-Shot Predictions (that have a shot)
Things that come to my head - from nowhere.
Prediction 1: Michael Vick comes out of prison and gets picked up by the Miami Dolphins who have perfected the Wildcat offense by then. Imagine a backfield of Ronnie Brown, Ricky Williams and Michael Vick. Parcells likes giving players second chances and Sporano looks like he knows what he’s doing.
Prediction 2: Washington Redskins vs Denver...
NFL Rookie of the Month - September: Chris Horton...
Rookie Chris Horton has made some crucial, timely, plays in the last 3 games. He may be #1 in our hearts, but he’s clearly not #1 in the locker room. Check out his taped-off-boundaries sandwiched between LaRon Landry and Cornelius Griffin:
