Stet Sports Blog

Salukis, consider me an honorary alumnus of your great institution.
Call me crazy, but I am seeing a coup in the east. It would be very easy to pick the defending conference champs, the Cleveland Lebrons or the Boston Celtics…but I’m going to choose the Washington Wizards. I think...
Redskins Fan Censorship Goes ‘Around the Horn’
October 29, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Courtesy of the DC Sports Bog, here’s a national perspective on local lunacy; Daniel Snyder’s censorship of fan signage at Fed Ex Field.
I have to admit, given their propensity for candor and honesty, I’m really surprised that Chris Cooley, Clinton Portis or DeAngelo...
Former Redskins Going Live, Going In
October 29, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog

A lot of people wonder what makes the Washington Redskins one of the worst franchises in professional sports. Surprisingly, the biggest reason isn’t fan censorship or poor management;
It’s the fact that iconic former Redskins are all too willing to drag the team through...
Ravens Were Interested in Interviewing Josh McDaniels
October 29, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
We knew that Ravens owner Steve Bisciotti had a vision of getting a young head coach two years ago, but who would’ve thought that fresh-faced, then-New England Patriots-coordinator Josh McDaniels was high up on the list?
He didn’t interview for the gig, and gave the PC...

The Washington Capitals may be the illness of the NHL Eastern Conference, but even they aren’t immune from the H1N1 virus. Left wing Quintin Laing has been diagnosed with the illness, and will be apart from the team until he is symptom free.
Caps coach Bruce Budreau breaks...

There are some other striking resemblances at HateTheOwner.com, but none more fascinating than this one.

Wizards Build Vocabulary in Win Over Mavericks
October 28, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Used to be that when you talked about the Washington Wizards, there were but a few words that immediately came to mind when describing them on the court. Off the court, you had no problems; swag, quirky, extroverted, silly, immature. The majority of the Wizards were all of those things...
Ravens Don’t Stop Believing or Practicing
October 27, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Even a team that is struggling deserves a little time off, but it I can’t lie and say it’s not exciting to read this tidbit from Aaron Wilson on the Ravens’ off-week practice habits.
… Harbaugh estimated that 75 percent of the players spent part of the bye...

Steinz exposes the truth behind Daniel Snyder’s attempt to control fans with some recovered signage from yesterday’s game.
Prioritization fail.

Chris Cooley Breaks Tibia, Hearts Across the DMV
October 27, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Oh the irony of the Washington Redskins. The team’s best talent and most marketable player goes down with a broken tibia while running a route.
Oddly enough, it may be a blessing in disguise for the Redskins’ offense. Without Cooley on the field to provide a comfortable...
Daniel Snyder’s Brand Busting
October 27, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
I think I’ve figured out what exactly is wrong with the Washington Redskins. It’s not specifically the play calling, it’s not specifically the personnel or the execution; it’s a weird mash-up of everything being off kilter at the same time.
In essence, it&...
Manny Acta Will Not Be Denied
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Either the Washington Nationals are very dumb, the Cleveland Indians are very smart, or they meet somewhere in the midst of Manny Acta’s warm smile and calming personality.
Acta is the new manager of the Cleveland Indians, which is a job that is dangerously close to being as...
Anti-Redskins Signage and Gear
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog

The D.C. Sports Bog is on top of anti-Redskins sentiment around town. Here’s a sign placed on Route 28 this morning.
And then there’s the latest style in mocking the Redskins owner and GM.
I’m not going to lie; I don’t know why Vinny Cerrato take so much heat...
TruthAboutIt.Net Delivers the Comprehensive Washington Wizards Season Preview
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
I almost choked on a yogurt-covered pretzel when I read the Washington Wizards 2009 season preview on TruthAboutIt.Net and the projected wins, but he brings some solid works to back up the faith. If you are someone who loves the Wiz or cares about the NBA in general, you really should...
Bill Simmons Goes in on the Washington Bullets in “The Book of Basketball”
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog

Bill Simmons is little more than a bunch of played pop culture references, endless research resources and the collective workday boredom of thousands of middle-aged White guys.
That being said, his new book casts some new perspective on the value of two Hall of Fame Washington Bullets...
Redskins Fan Revolution Taking Hold?
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Sure it’s just a couple of thousand people missing from one of the largest stadiums in the country. But is this a sign that Washington Redskins fans are fed up with the product?
Officially, attendance at home games had fallen from 87,780 at the home opener to 79,572 at last...
Delonte West Needs Help
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
First, PG native Delonte West was riding around Upper Marlboro with a cache of weaponry like he was an unlockable character on Contra I. Dangerous, yet mildly humorous since no one was hurt.
Now he’s being accused of domestic violence by his wife, and it’s no longer funny...
Stumbling Upon Maryland’s Football Failure
October 26, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog

If you read enough local headlines on Maryland football, you’ll begin to see a disturbing trend that sports copy editors have picked up on covering this year’s debacle. They regularly call their self-inflicted defeats “stumbles.”
Terps stumble against the Cavs...
Happy Birthday Willis McGahee
October 25, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
By my count, Willis McGahee is having a pretty good year. He’s seventh in the league in touchdowns, and with limited carries, he figures to be a lot healthier through the season than he has been in previous campaigns.
And, he spent his 28th birthday party at Love the Club with...
The Unbreakable Jim Zorn
October 24, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
It’s hard to tell what is a sicker part of the entire Washington Redskins-Jim Zorn saga, the fact that Daniel Snyder is arrogant enough to publicly humiliate his head coach without firing him, or that Jim Zorn has enough resolve to stick it out for the money.
Obviously, Snyder...

Forgive the lack of posts today, but as some of you may be aware, my wife and I welcomed our first child, a son, into the world at 11:45 a.m. this morning.
As such, I’ll likely be out of commission for the next 24-48 hours, catching up on sleep, rejoicing in the gift of life, and [...]
Jason Campbell is Mr. Monday Night
October 20, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
Jason Campbell will be your starter for next week’s Monday Night Football massacre. And its a good thing, too – there’s no way Todd Collins emerges from the game against the Philadelphia Eagles with health, pride or sense of self-worth.
But Campbell is the right...
Missing Matt Stover
October 20, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
John Harbaugh may have confidence in Steve Hauschka, but it does very little for the Ravens fans lamenting the loss of Matt Stover to the Indianapolis Colts.
Sure, he may have been old and up for a new contract. But there is no one in the NFL more money than Matt Stover. He missed a few [...]
The Good Life of Sherman Lewis
October 20, 2009 by
Stet Sports Blog
| Comments
What immediately comes to mind about Sherman Lewis calling plays for Washington is not if the offense will improve, or whether Jason Campbell will be included in the plans, or if he’ll be the interim when Zorn is fired in a few weeks.
It’s about how lucky he is to be working...
