    Albert Haynesworth Sued, But No Hard Feelings

    The man injured in a car accident involving Albert Haynesworth is suing the Titans lineman for $7.5 million. "He's the man, but I'm still not mad. I don't have anything against him." [Tennessean]

    The Legendary Redskins Ticket "Waiting List" That Doesn't Exist

    Dan Snyder likes to brag that the waiting list for Redskins season tickets has over 200,000 names on it. Then why is the team begging people who aren't on the list to buy seats? More »

    Seattle Still Has Their Beloved Seahawks

    Seattle fans wear their heart on their sleeve and their logo on their head. No wonder Sonics fans were so pissed off. Jim Zorn and Mike Holmgren have been feeling each other out like a Mormon couple on their honeymoon and neither side has looked all that fluid. Clinton Portis has been running wild (85 total yards on 16 touches) and the Skins got a big pass interference call on a long pass over the top to Santana Moss. Jason Campbell followed up with a first down pass to Chris Cooley inside the five yard line and Ladell Betts finished off the 12 play drive with a short touchdown run. Washington leads 7-3 but Seattle is mounting a drive in the half's final two minutes. More »

    Alright You Lowlifes, The Boy From Eastern Illinois Is Back

    Just a handful of moments after announcing that Tony Romo would return to action this week, Jerry Jones puffed himself up and guaranteed that the Cowboys would make the playoffs. I believe the term he used is that they would "absolutely" be there. Also, Jones said that he would welcome back Pacman Jones with open arms, and that Wade Phillips' job is totally safe. Which most likely means that both Pacman and Phillips will be working at an area Arby's by Christmas. More »

    Once Again, Philadelphia Fans Do Their Part To Keep Their Reputation for Upstanding Citizenry Intact

    And then there's the other Philadelphia sports team. No, it wasn't all mirth and merriment in the 215 sports community this weekend after the Eagles surprisingly dropped a home game to the Redskins. All that talk about the Birds being the class of the NFC East this season has quieted down, now that they're (ugh) last in the division at 2-3. And now with Brian Westbrook possibly out for an extended period of time courtesy of two fractured ribs, the year that once looked so promising is now filled with the familiar stink of uncertainty. Eagles' fans acted accordingly this weekend, as they attacked the Redskins buses with the requisite amount of vitriol and breakfast products befitting a fan base notorious for its misguided passion. Chris Cooley commended them on their egg-throwing accuracy: More »

    Mike Sellers and Chris Samuels Forge a Friendship Through Nude Hijinx

    Sometimes I really envy Dan Steinberg. As one of the few sports bloggers in the country with real-deal locker room access, Steinberg takes us to places those of us trapped in underwear-covered cellars can only dream about . He gets to show-off his deft reporter's instincts and tenacity, but still writes outside the general laws of inverted pyramid-style journalism. This is not one of those days I envy him, however, as the D.C. Bog proprietor reveals a side of the Redskins' locker room that will haunt us forever. For it to be effective, let's get into the proper mind-set. Picture Chris Samuels nude. Got it? Great. Now imagine Mike Sellers nude. Superb. And let's proceed to the locker room where these two nude enthusiasts share common area: More »

Including this interesting story from Monday, where the Washington Post's Mike Wise approached the Cooley family, er, member most affected by the the Redskins' tight end's loose noodle: Chris's mom.

    Who's Sorry Now? Chris Cooley Edition

    The nation is still buzzing over Wienergate; when Redskins tight end Chris Cooley posted a naked photo of himself — including shlong — on his personal blog over the weekend. This has caused much consternation at Clan Cooley; the photo was removed late Sunday, and now Chris has issued a mea culpa.

    Cooley Exposed More Than His Playbook

    Chris Cooley, a friend of the bloggers as well as an accomplished blogger in his own right, had a nice day on the field today, but I don't think that's what people are going to remember come tomorrow. Earlier today Chris posted on his official blog about a fun section of the playbook that Jim Zorn asks his players to decorate for themselves (he's like a bohemian football coach!) as well as a position test he took to prepare for today's opponents. What he may or may not have realized is that he was also posting a picture of his dick for the world to see. The uncropped image is after the jump in all its not safe for work glory.

    The Average NFL Team Now Worth Over $1 Billion

    Just as a refresher, the Pittsburgh Steelers franchise fee was $2,500 back in 1933. Art Rooney had the money to pay the franchise fee thanks to winnings at Saratoga Racetrack. Yeah, pretty good investment. As always it makes you want to kick your grandfather. The NFL becomes the first sports league for an average team to surpass the $1 billion mark. Who are the most valuable franchises according to Forbes? Read on. More »

    Jim Zorn Will Not Keep John McCain Hanging

    Pretty entertaining NFL opener last night, but what WAS the deal with the Redskins not going to the no-huddle on that second-to-last possession down by nine with about five minutes left? John Madden's explanation: Jim Zorn didn't have time to put in a no-huddle. That's a pretty hilarious notion, actually. "We were going to get to that on Friday!" But Central Main Sports Blog has another wacky-yet-entertaining theory. The Redskins wanted to make sure that the game was over in time for the start of the Republican National Convention broadcast.

    The End Of Productivity: Your NFL Opener Is Finally Here

    I don't know about you, but after a summer of confusing Chinese Olympic ceremonies and Barry Zito highlights, I'm ready for tonight's game big time. Redskins! Giants! Meadowlands! The NFL is here! My nipples explode with delight. If they're smart, the Giants should have worked this week on figuring out how to lose this game. They started 0-2 last season, as you'll recall, and according to the papers it all turned out pretty well. The Redskins, meanwhile, are trotting out their Sarah Palin: Newly minted head coach Jim Zorn; who has little foreign policy experience, but is the only current NFL head coach to have been succeeded as a player by Dave Krieg. Will it seem weird to see the Redskins run the West Coast offense? Only if they do it wrong. So, 7 p.m., ET, NBC, as we just learned in To Watch Tonight. I'm reasonably sure that it will be better attended than Wednesday's Braves-Marlins game. More »

    The Washington Redskins, after a long, dilligent, much publicized, energy wasting search for a head coach, decided the best man for the job was former Seahawks quarterback and their new/former offensive coordinator, Jim Zorn. The search took 32 days — and thousands of miles on Dan Snyder's private plane — in a red herring-filled process that baffled both NFL insiders and fans alike. More »

The NFL Playoffs arrive today and my preferred team will be kicking things off in about four hours. Seattle have the honor of hosting the early game and the weather is about what you'd expect. The C-Hox ran through the NFC West behind a wide-open passing game and an attacking defense, but now they'll face a stifling Washington defense. And how 'bout them Redskins?! They've been playing lights out the past month and today they'll get another chance at a playoff win in Seattle.
