Prepare To Sweat at FedEx

GREAT. YOU BEEP-BEEP ME JUST TO GIVE THE WEATHER REPORT? I DON'T CARE. I'M REPOSTING, AND MAYBE FIRST

+++It's ok, we drafted 3 guys to catch the ball, everything is fine....

Yes three receivers drafted and 8 mil in cap room spent on a sore-footed, bum-kneed 244-pound 34-year-old Samba Artist, so there's little cash available for replacements.

Tuna must be drooling. That second rounder he finagled from the skins is looking like a low first rounder.

Two worst franchises in the NFL? Right now it's the Raiders and the Redskins. The Raiders have a clueless owner calling the shots and about to boot his inexperienced coach.
The Redskins have a clueless owner calling the shots and looking west and going, "Gee Al, maybe I'll try that."

Couldn't agree more! I keep hoping D. Snyder will go off on a world-wide trip for a few years and leave everything to capable hands, but then I awaken to the same old sh*t we've had the last decade or so.

"early and out-muscle itstheir opponent... "

"Will be watching Marcus Washington and Rocky McIntosh closely (assuming Marcus plays)..."

"Maybe we could create some kind of drinking game around it)...."

By Jason La Canfora | September 14, 2008; 12:35 PM ET

In that there IS no such thing as an "itstheir" opponent, and in that Marcus Washington is inactive and CAN'T play. which was reported here on the last thread, I can only assume Jason has ALREADY created a drinking game. Them cool ones sure do go down easy when it's hot n' humid, right Jasno?

An thus the term "A face not designed for Hi Def" joins "A face for radio" in th lexicon of on air TV Talent.

OK, I need some advice from you western RI bloggers. I'm in Hawaii this week and next for the Skins games. I've taped my ankles, and have my blackout under the eyes. Here's my predicament... It's not even 7am here. Do I start my tailgating now, or wait until te second half?

By the way, Skins game is not televises out here, so keep me informed on what is happening. I'm counting on you.

I for one am glad that you are suffering. When someone continues to stand on the edge of the abyss and see only darkness, and then continue to preach that same darkness to those who know what the abyss is yet refuse to stand there without hope, then that person deserves all of the suffering they bring on themselves.

Is there no bright side in your world?

Enjoy your suffering but please stop bringing it to the rest of us, especially on game day!

Okay, I did the triathlon anyway and I've finished in time to get a good seat in front of the TV.

My triathlon's not like you wisses who think it's "bacon, eggs, hashbrowns." I did the real deal: shower, shave, brush my teeth. Now I'm ready for some fooball.

At half time I'm gonna extend it to the pentathlon: spray on deodorant, and get dressed.

Man, Jimmy Johnson just lit into Zorn, Snyder and Cerrato on the pre-game show. No holds barred. Sounds like he's been reading the blog -- corkie, longsuffering, zpfr2 -- that part of the blog. I don't mean he's just "reading the blog." I mean he's reading it aloud for everyone to hear.

It's "eggs, bacon, hashbrowns". Were you raised by wolves?

Plays. Make 'em.

I'm thinking it's "Vodka, OJ, Ice" and T-E has joined Jason in his drinking game.

Okay, off to watch some fubbal.

Freddy, you haven't purchased chocolate Pop Tarts, official snack this season of Redskins Insiders?

Jimmy Johnson is an A-HOLE, But he sure does have nice hair!

Okay, I'm saying this game is still winnable. We're not out of it yet.

Yuck. What a crappy broadcast team. I'm turning off the sound and sitting here and reading Corkczar's play-by-play. A little color commentary from SMACK, cload, stumped would be welcome counterpoint.

OK guys, I need to depend on you to keep me updated on the game today. Not on where I am at so you help is needed.

Going to try watching on channelsurfing.net but don't know how that will work.

Thanks!

Curzon,

When i've been in your sad situation, NFL.com had a good play-by-play.

It's even worse than I thought, all I get there is audio.

Thanks TE, have that page open also.

WOOOO Let's Go Redskins!

Effin great we have dingdong brian baldinger. Why does the league/fox/the gods hate us so very very much?

Alright here we go!

Curzon,

Zorn's wearing blue sunglasses. What do you think that means?

Third and long...jeez, this gets old.

I am not a fan of the blanco on blanco. . . not even close to black and maroon.

You'd think after Zorn went mountain biking with Bush that Fox would give us any announcers we want, plus a 14-point advantage and Joe Gibbs as a referee.

LOL - yeah with St. Joe as ref we could call 4 timeouts in a row.

Right. He'd let us have the ones that we didn't use last week.

But they converted...as Maske says, they should be able to move and score on this defense.

Do mine eyes deceive me or was that a rookie WR who just made a catch? And for a first down? And we have 3 first downs?

Be still my beating heart.

Woot a Kelly sighting

Brandon Lloyd just ran a blocked punt in for a TD?!

THE RECEIVER SCORING POINTS

Can Suii hiy a 48 yarder?

All for naught. Let's see what the D's got this week.

Wow, David Patten hasn't gotten a haircut since he left here.

Many continue to want to argue with me over 2 issues....Once again Campbell killed a drive...He over threw a wide open El...then with pressure up the middle he hold the ball too long by once again pumping the ball......

Second...I have been saying in here for a year and half we need a new kicker...but everyone says Swishy is the man.....

And he misses yet another kick and wastes a failed Campbell drive with no points...

But I'm sure some will still argue.

Sonny said JC had him open.
Easy throw, should have completed it.

Then Sonny said they will continue to blitz.
Translation:
No one in NFL respects JC until he does something to burn a secondary.

Brandon Lloyd scores TD already in Chicago

I knew it would start like this, I just knew it.

Lloyd had to score sometime; just like a blind pig finding an acorn in the slop.

That was a very very poor use of a timeout.

Was there some kind of concern on the Skins sideline that we wouldn't use our TOs in first half like last week?

HELP! I'm stuck in Miami and can't watch the game. And there's no sound coming from the ESPN radio. I tried clicking on their help link, but it was worthless--just told me to upgrade Windows Media Player (not the problem).

Can anyone provide a fix so I can listent to the game???

Smart play by Brees to chuck the rock (like the lingo?) since Griffin was offsides.

Defense sounds good. With the exception of the offsides

Bush is better on pitches and tosses to the outside and catching the ball in space. F u Shockey!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Love that the play by play couldn't call it.

Finally the ball rolls our way.

Who was it predicted the 3-2 final? These teams might not get there.

Anyone else bemused by the Gates/Seinfeld ads? Is Vista that bad . . . . wait I can answer that.

Nice play by Horton. Filling in for Doughty, he scooped up Shockey fumble.

But I'm sure some will still argue.

Posted by: Leevi | September 14, 2008 1:17 PM

You're too predicatable and boring to argue with. Where were you when Campbell completed three passes for first downs? Where were you when Suisham made two FGs last week? Where were you when he put all his KOs into the end zone last week? You only come around when you can say something bad.

WOOO! That play hasn't worked in years!

Skins look about 70 percent better than they did Sept. 4.

THEY USED THEIR THIRD TIMEOUT AND IT'S STILL THE FIRST QUARTER.
caps=outrage

WOW! 3 to's in the 1st....

So the end around works both pre and post Al Saunders but not during. Anywhere to watch this thing online?

caps=outrage

Posted by: Cindy | September 14, 2008 1:33 PM

LOL Cyn

Maybe they think it's 3 TOs per quarter.

three timeouts in first quarter?
Not even Gibbs 2.0 did that !!

How many TO do we have left?

Got nothing, just the audio on espnradio.

Once again, they're about two yards short of the first down on a completion.

Anyone, a little help....anyone...?...Bueler?...Bueler??? Come on, am I the only one who can't watch this game on tv????

Posted by: Curzon417 | September 14, 2008 1:36 PM

We have three left. Unfortunately, we can't use them until the second half. And forget challenging a bad call until the second half.

Zorn usually calls good plays as he was a NFL QB. Can we execute???

Curzon - they have zero timeouts left. 2 called by offense and one by defense in first quarter. . .ugh

But we did put 3 points on the board so that is something.

All the time the Saints D is spending on the field is bound to play dividends in the second half.

On the bright side, we can't ice the kicker twice in a row in the first half. :)

Double crap TE! I didn't even think about that. Oh well.

Curzon, how did you get the audio on ESPN radio?????

Posted by: sfskin | September 14, 2008 1:38 PM

Is it possible to buy a timeout with one of the points, or is that only in pre-season junior college ball?

V. v. excited about the "all-new 'Prison Break'"...if it's all new, is it not about prison breaks anymore?

Sonny just said not good execution at all on that third down.
Did anyone notice why Sonny would have said that? Did JC miss someone open?

Horton Hears a Hoo!

WOOOO Christ Horton INT from deflection of Brees pass! WOOOO!

Chris Horton comes up with another turnover, this one an interception. Think Reed Doughty gets his job back?

Curzon, how did you get the audio on ESPN radio?????

Posted by: jakeweed | September 14, 2008 1:39 PM

I had to restart IE. Started working after that.

When you watch rookies like Horton contributing you realize how bad the last draft was. Wait, maybe I need to rethink that?

"Christ" Horton, sfskin? Don't you think that's taking it a little too far, even if the guy's having a great game?

Wait you use IE? Well that is your first problem...

cindy, it's still about breaking out of prison but they're actually working with the law to bring down "THE COMPANY"...

what can be done for JC to look at the whole field and not lock in on one receiver and one side of the field?

jesus got nothing on Horton.

why sign a player from the worst team in the league? oh yeah we signed lloyd a few years back

cooley got dinged on that one...

Supposedly you could watch the game here:

http://www.justin.tv/mrwhite51585

of course my connection is crap so can't get it

SKINS!!

TOO many threes...

Posted by: dealer | September 14, 2008 1:43 PM

Some of the Redskins cheerleaders need to flash the Saints so they take their eyes off Campbell?

Man, I don't know. If you and I notice, I'm sure the Saints do too.

LOL Nate.

On the other hand, 2 turnovers in a a few minutes that lead to actual points (even if only FGs) is well frankly a bit miraclous.
: )

beep beep

Yeah, the problem was with Internet Explorer. Sound coming through fine on Google browser. Screw Microsoft! Hail!!!

I agree with portis.. this run blocking sucks.... i get tired of look at other nfl games and the backs have big holes to run through..

Leevi,

How about coming back with some more of your Suisham hate?

He's always lacked this ability; work on it in practice and while playing Madden and work on it. Or cut/trade him and play Collins or Colt who can already do that.

But I'm sure some will still argue.

That's not true at all....and you used to say I drank too much "koolaid" now you say the opposite...so you are also predictable. At least I stand my ground...You always flip flop and change your mind all the time. How come we can't discuss our opinions....why do you always come at people with insults and talk down to them. Why not just discuss and give valid points and use this for what it is...a blog...where we can express our emotions and opinions about what we see.. No need for insulting tones..because you disagree with someone.

Still enjoy your posts Talent :)

Awesome..Now werew talkiin Ride the horse baby....Nice drive. Bad int on the 2 point...but ya have to go for it there...nothing to lose
