We Are All Dave McKenna XXVII
Here's your daily link to Dave McKenna's brilliant "Cranky Redskins Fan's Guide to Dan Snyder," which we'll be posting until Snyder's dumbass libel suit croaks like a Silver Spring toad. On this fine evening, we bring you McKenna himself, who has become a vector for loathing in the DC area. You might recall the story McKenna wrote last year on the woes of the football team at Sidwell Friends, the sham-populist prep school the Obama girls attend. Hilarity ensued in the comments section when some Quakers in velvet trousers got all high-hatted on McKenna. But now there is this:
Sidwell folks let me know what a hack and horrible human being I am for writing what I wrote. One parent told me that because of my story, an evil character in a student drama on the school stage last semester was named "Dave McKenna." And this basketball season, I heard that fans from rival Maret taunted Sidwell fans by cheering "Dave....McKenna....Dave...McKenna" during the game.
Please, Redskins fans. Can we chant "Dave...McKenna" at FedExField?
