My take on anything and everything Burgundy and Gold
while living in the heart of the wilderness. I am a fan, nothing more or less.

IT

Posted 08-13-10 at 04:10 PM by Neophyte (Behind Enemy Lines)

The day starts like any other weekday…alarm, shower, coffee, e-mail. It is pretty much like every other work day I have had since Jan 3rd of this year. Oh, my office is a bit warmer than most of those days and I am dressed a bit more casually than most of those days (I’m in shorts and Crocs rather than jeans and sneakers) but it is pretty normal otherwise.

Except it isn’t. Not really.

You see, IT returns today.

IT is Redskin football and there isn’t much...

A Good Man

Since Easter I have spent a good bit of time reading more than my fair share of media and fan comment about everyone’s new best friend, Donovan McNabb. I have to say I have not heard this much hype about a guy in Burgundy and Gold taking snaps from center since . . . well . . . since Campbell took over the starting job from Brunell.

Before I elaborate further, I have to admit to you all that I am a Jason Campbell fan but I did not start out that way. I was against drafting him when...

It's The Line, Stupid

The QB stat line for the game read 22 of 35 for 198 with no Touchdowns, one INT, three Fumbles (two lost) and six Sacks.

If I showed you that line in a vacuum, where you didn’t already have a clue where I got it from, my guess is you, as a Redskin fan, would have no problem believing that it belonged to Jason Campbell. We have sure seen his stat line look like that often enough.

In this case it belongs to Tony Romo and this is the line he posted yesterday in the Great...

Hope and Change

Like many guys, I have ideas about what a “perfect” morning involves. The list includes a hot shower, a great cup of coffee, and some things best not mentioned in polite company.

Yesterday I added something to the list I had previously considered impossible. . . namely, the resignation of Vinny Cerrato from our beloved Washington Redskins.

I can tell you that seeing that news for the first time in a thread here on BGO made my coffee taste better, my chair more comfortable...

Tail of Two Cities

Let’s go back a year or so, to October 20th 2008, the day Mike Nolan was fired as Head Coach of the San Francisco 49ers and Mike Singletary was promoted to Interim Head Coach of that storied but recently downtrodden franchise.

At the time, the 49ers were 2-5 and coming off back to back poundings by teams we Skins fans know all too well, the Eagles and Giants. They lacked identity and will. They were on track to be the 3rd best team in a 4 team division considered so weak that many...
