Dan Snyder filed suit against DC City Paper in NYC
Sound wacky? Well it may be. This according to TBD.com.
First off, Levy calls Snyder’s claims weak. By claiming that his company forging signatures is not the same as if he himself had forged signatures, Snyder tries to avoid culpability. But the claim falls flat. Secondly, the suit (and the way it was filed) has everything to do with anti-SLAPP laws, which many states...

A plea for the NFL to not go to an 18-game schedule
The NFL should not go to an 18-game schedule. After hearing different sides to it, I have firmly changed my stance as I previously wanted an 18-game schedule.
As the old saying goes “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” and that is what the NFL season is. Owners may feel like they are providing more entertainment for the fans, and while that might be true in quantity it may...

Chris Cooley being shopped? All draft bets are off
I leave the Washington DC region for two weeks to get married and soak in some much needed sun in the Southern Caribbean only to find that the Redskins have made some fairly significant changes.

A new era to begin in Washington
Ryan Torain looks to be the featured back in 2011
Previous to last season the Redskins dealt some “core” players, as dubbed my Joe Gibbs in his second stint. Rock Cartwright and Jason Campbell headed out to Oakland. Ladell Betts, a staple at backup, departed last year as well. Troubled wide receiver Devin Thomas was finally released this season. Clinton Portis and Andre...

The case to #ReSign Santana Moss
The Redskins have been doing plenty of purging…and lots of it!
Clinton Portis, Derrick Dockery and Andre Carter have begun what will be a mass exit as the Redskins begin to move beyond Joe Gibbs II era players once and for all. But as locker nameplates of household name veterans begin to come off, I feel one should stay for a little while longer–Santana Moss.
