Leave it to Dan Snyder and Vinnie. Another example of why the redskins have been this bad during his era.

He thinks that that this is fantasy football.

well, they still have portis. i don't know that alexander would be a bad replacement for betts. he's only there to give portis a breather.

Well, we will see. I just don't think he has anything left. He tried out for some running back starved teams and got cut. Cincinnatti took cedric benson over him to fill the same role he will play for the skins.

He does know the offense or at least the princples of it. I dont know if the terminology is the same in washington.

I guess there isnt much risk.

IF the skins OL open holes for SA like they are for portis, SA will be ok. if they want him to get tough yards, not gonna happen. he's just not tough enough anymore. i always though he was soft at times.

i think he used to work with zorn in seattle, so i think he'll fit here ok. if he gets on the team that is.

alexander signed a one year deal, also picked up a punter (good thing) and a safety....

and now pacman out at least four games, perhaps longer, due to his stupidity.
who do the 'boys face this week? not looking good for them, romo out, punter out, pacman out, and t.o. looking like he's about to explode.

But Jerry can turn Adam into a
respected titty bar brawler.

Look it.
When Adam got in trouble a teammate
came to his defense. This teammate went
before the press a declared everyone deserved
a 2nd... a 2nd to the fifth power chances.

And that man.
That true teammate.
That was Tank Johnson.

How bout them Cowboys?

The Cowboys did pick up Roy Williams from Detroit.
Maybe Owens and Williams will go at it and hate each other.
One can hope.
