I’ve been saying this for months and getting considerable amounts of opposition. The Philadelphia Eagles need to take a serious look at Albert Haynesworth. Photo Caption: “Not according to my bank account, sukka!” We all know that Fat Albert aka ”Hey, Hey, Haynesworth” would come with some baggage and a few character concerns. C’mon… lets be [...]
Who knows how good the numbers could be of San Francisco 49ers tight end Vernon Davis if he had anyone remotely competent throwing the ball to him? Surely, he can’t wait for the Niners to be done with the Alex Smith’s and Troy Smith’s of the world. His preference for next year? Washington Redskins QB [...]
The Washington Redskins do have their share of characters on their team. However, these characters need to learn to make headlines with their play on the field and not things like benchings, not showing up to offseason workouts or assaulting women in nightclubs. And that’s the latest one. Sources tell TMZ that tight end Fred [...]
We all know the situation with Albert Haynesworth in Washington. The Redskins gave him a ton of money despite numerous indications in the past that he was a turd. Then, when Albert acted turdish, the Redskins seemed shocked. He was sent home for the final four games of the season and it’s clear that his [...]
Donovan McNabb’s agent, Fletcher Smith, came out recently and blasted the Washington Redskins and their treatment of his client. He said a bunch of stuff that we all knew that McNabb agreed with, but that the QB denied to offensive coordinator Kyle Shanahan. “I believe there is tension between Donovan and Kyle that’s rooted in [...]
This is crazy. Kelli Johnson of Comcast SportsNet is reporting that the Washingon Redskins will start Rex Grossman this week against the Dallas Cowboys. Yes, Donovan McNabb has been benched and apparently it’s not a popular decision. “Just learned that Rex Grossman is starting over McNabb Sun in Dallas; I’m told Redskins Lockeroom is divided [...]
As if things couldn’t get uglier for Albert Haynesworth and the Washington Redskins. Now, the ‘Skins have suspended the big defensive tackle without pay for the final four games of the season for conduct detrimental to the team. “#Redskins have suspended DL Albert Haynesworth without pay for the team’s next four games for conduct detrimental [...]
The situation with Albert Haynesworth down in Washington DC continues to get better. Benched against the New York Giants, there was speculation from a local radio station that there was a good chance that Haynesworth gets cut this week. Several other media outlets reported that that wasn’t the case. But, it came out that Haynesworth [...]
Apparently, the Washington Redskins aren’t the only team to think that Devin Thomas can’t play in the NFL. According to Mike Cranston, the Carolina Panthers have released the former Michigan State wide receiver. “#Panthers sign S Gerald Alexander and waive WR Devin Thomas,” he tweets with appropriate use of hashtags. Thomas was active for just [...]
Former Washington Redskin and University of Hawaii quarterback Colt Brennan is in serious condition after a two-car accident on Big Island in Hawaii. Brennan has been hospitalized with head and neck injuries and will undergo a CAT scan. Police received a call of an overturned vehicle near the Four Seasons resort. The female driver of [...]
It really doesn’t get much better than this. The Washington Redskins got absolutely destroyed on Monday night by the Philadelphia Eagles 59-28. It was an embarrassment from the beginning. And there is a certain local radio host down in D.C. that didn’t appreciate the effort. Chad Dukes co-hosts a show with Lavar Arrington on CBS’ [...]
Most people saw that skirmish on Monday night before the absolute beatdown that the Philadelphia Eagles handed the Washington Redskins. It started with LaRon Landry and DeAngelo Hall popping off to DeSean Jackson. But, what was said? Well, according to multiple reports, Landry and Hall were making references to Jackson’s concussion history. Which, if true, [...]
It’s not just that the Washington Redskins are a bad team. They are just flat-out bizarre at times. Last week against the Detroit Lions, QB Donovan McNabb was benched in favor of Rex Grossman at the two-minute drill. We were then fed about 14 explanations over the following days about why that happened. All explanations [...]
Nothing like giving Donovan McNabb more motivation before a big division game. As if McNabb wasn’t hell bent enough to show everyone that his benching was a bunch of crap, now he can get fired up by the comments of former teammate Trent Cole. Cole went on SIRIUS NFL Radio on Friday and basically said [...]
We were over at P.J. Whelihan’s in Cherry Hill, NJ Tuesday night for some Chase event with former Eagles players. It was a Q & A with pictures and autographs with G. Cobb, Brian Mitchell, Mike Quick, Ron Jaworski, Tra Thomas and Fred Barnett. And of course when you talk about the Philadelphia Eagles, a [...]
Mostly all of us were pretty shocked when Washington Redskins head coach Mike Shanahan decided to bench QB Donovan McNabb for the final drive against the Detroit Lions last week. Rex Grossman went in, reached into his bag of tricks, and delivered a fumble returned for a TD. McNabb hasn’t been great this year, but [...]
As if it wasn’t weird enough in the NFC East with the Dallas Cowboys stinking up the joint (again) and the Philadelphia Eagles not being able to decide which mediocre QB to start, now the Redskins are joining the circus. Specifically, they decided that Rex Grossman gave them a better chance to win with two [...]
The NFC East is routinely referred to as the best division in football. The truth is, it’s not true. The whole division ain’t that great and if the Dallas Cowboys are able to find a win tonight against the New York Giants, things could get messy in coming weeks. I have a feeling the 1-4 [...]
We mentioned earlier that the Washington Redskins have released former second-round pick Devin Thomas. The second WR taken in the 2008 draft, Thomas just never got it going in DC. “You know, it is what it is,” Thomas told Jason Reid of the Washington Post. “Obviously, this staff didn’t want to utilize me. For whatever [...]
In 2008, there were a slew of wide receivers taken in the second round. Some turned out to be excellent players and some turned out to be complete busts. The Washington Redskins grabbed two of them and they both seem to be in the latter category. With a new regime in place, the Redskins seem [...]
We knew that Washington Redskins RB Clinton Portis was banged up. But, we didn’t think it was this bad. Portis has been battling a groin injury and it looks like it’s going to keep him out a bit. Mike Shanahan on Wednesday said that the running back will be out 4-6 weeks. He didn’t talk [...]
Philadelphia Eagles QB Michael Vick clearly got leveled at the one-yard line against the Washington Redskins on Sunday. And he clearly suffered some rib and chest injuries as a result. However, we were told that there was no fractures in his ribs, but only cartilage damage (like that’s any better?). Then Vick went on Bruce [...]
It was bad news for Philadelphia Eagles fans today as quarterback Michael Vick had to leave after getting crushed between two Redskins at the goal line. Insult to injury, the run was called back and Kevin Kolb couldn’t get the team in the end zone. Vick left the game with injuries to his clavicle and [...]
Nationally, Angelo Cataldi of 610 WIP in Philadelphia might be best known for leading “The Dirty 30,” a group of “passionate” Philadelphia Eagles fans, up to the 1999 NFL Draft to show their support for Texas RB Ricky Williams. But, locally, those who know him and his radio show know that he’s a rabble rouser [...]
My girlfriend is not a sports fan. Despite relentless efforts to turn her, I’m pretty confident she would rather watch QVC, infomercials or play Call of Duty Modern Warfare. rather than spend time watching a good old athletic competition. Albeit, a girl who wants to play C.O.D. is reason enough to turn a girlfriend into [...]
