The week in DMV








The Redskins loose a tough one 17-14 to the struggling Vikings, with all the drama with Brett Favre and Brad Childress being fired the skins should have won this game easily, the defense has played so lousy. With talent like Orakpo, Fletcher, Mcintosh, Hall, and the 100 million dollar man Albert Haynsworth, they are awful at making tackles. Haslett should have told Orakpo to destroy Brett Favre!! we need Orakpo to unleash the monster we know he is!! Donovan Mcnabb is by far the most consistent player, on the skins. Next year I hope they draft a running back, clearly were in need of a new running game. With all that being the Skins are still in the playoff picture, but its looking grim.
The Wizards loose on Saturday to the Magic and last night to the Heat, the Wizards are win less on the road, I think they are better than last season but still are a bad team. Arenas is playing better John Wall looks promising, Blatche is solid. Still they are struggling this year and I don't seem the having a winning record at the end of the season but I may be eating my words, I hope so!!
The Caps have won there last two game Friday dominating 6-0 and Sunday winning in a shoot out!! they are in 1st place playing well, they did have a 3 game loosing streak but they have worked past that for now. Budreau is a coach that will not let his players get comfortable and slack. The Caps defense has always been shaky, its cool how Ovechkin is leading the team in assists, not being a selfish player is the quality of a good Captain.
The Ravens win with ease Sunday over the Panthers and appear to be on the road to the playoffs again, there having a solid year!! I think Flacco has improved from last year, could this be bc of the tutelage of Jim Zorn? I cringe at the thought, bur that could be the reality!! This Sunday Ravens Steelers in Baltimore, will be an awesome game to watch.
Tomorrow I will write about college Football and Basketball!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!


Well its turkey day!! going to get my feed on later today, ready to enjoy some football and basketball action today. I have Sports center on as I am writing this. Want to talk about Clinton Portis, well for the 2nd straight season his season will end prematurely due to an injury. A torn groin injury, last season it was a concussion that knocked him out. I think last season Clinton did not want to play for Jim Zorn, and I don't blame him bc Jim Zorn was a lousy coach. I do think CP was re energized with Shanahan coming in, after all Shanahan drafted him. During the 7 season Portis has been here we have been to the playoffs twice, both while Joe Gibbs was here. CP at times has been a shining light in Washington, unf at time his immaturity comes out and has been scrutinized for it by the media, the thrust is CP is the same age as me and 29 year old men are generally immature, millions of dollars don't make u grow up faster. People just think it does, and it doesn't. If this is Portis's last season as a Redskin I wish him, I have enjoyed watching him play when he has had good seasons, we saw what the man is like after the tragic death of his friend and teammate Sean Taylor, also enjoyed his great sense of humor!! well I hope then that Shanahan and Allan draft a RB next year in the draft. All right happy turkey day!! will be on twitter tonight during the Wizards game as they take on the Hawks in Atlanta.

Wizards Game


The Wizards win a donnybrook tonight 116-114 over the Philadelphia 76ers in overtime, from the Verizon Center, Nick Young hit a winning 3 pointer. One of the most exciting Wizards game I have watched in quite sometime. This team is so much better from last year. Arenas, Young, Wall, McGee, and Blatche are all very exciting to watch. With that kind of talent and now that they are owned by Ted Leonsis, hopefully we will see better days for this long troubled organization. John Wall is already shows signs he is destined to be a star in this league. Lets hope that is what happens!!
