  1. Signed: DB Brandon Meriweather

    The realities of NFL finance never cease to amaze me. I wish someone would pay me $6 million for a "look see". Is that really what NFL execs say like "oh well sure he's got issues but it's only six million?" B.

  2. Williams and Bounty System in Washington

    i guess the whole issue of what you intend with a "good clean hit" is very troublesome, a gray area, or what? Obviously, they are meant to do harm, perhaps they don't intend permanent harm but no two ways about it, that's always a risk. WTOP has an article on the Giants-SF game and the Kyle...

  3. Williams and Bounty System in Washington

    I've been watching this story develop, or shall we say snowball all day. I pretty much agree with Ax and Boone, there is a gargantuan amount of hypocrisy in some of the rage being expressed. Reading some of the posts on various other boards I have to wonder how many of these people have ever...

  4. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    That may be, we will find out in time though how important a db coach is to a team is debatable anyway. Yeah, he could have walked but he may just have decided the Vikes position was a lousy one and thought it's better to just wait for something else. It's hard to say what's in a man's heart or...

  5. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    How interesting. He's got an "out" in a one year contract? So much for his "admirable" rating. I wonder how focused he will be. Well, at least he won't be nervous reading the want ads out in the open at Redskins Park. B.

  6. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    The part where it says it must be in writing is what you are misreading. It says in fact "certain" one have to be in writing, not all. You missed that. I don't think you are actually reading my posts and your conclusions make no sense. I'll refer you again to West's or any other legal...

  7. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    I would refer you to any legal dictionary on the subject but I will cite West's for you. My post is entirely correct. The student athletes to which you refer may well be in breach of contract IF someone wants to hold them to it unless the law in their specific jurisdiction states otherwise...

  8. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    Oral contracts are legally binding though it may depend on the jurisdiction and whether a particular statute governs a particular situation. It is sometimes hard to prove the contract exists however. B.

  9. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    Nope, not all NFL teams do that. Only the New England Patriots do it in some circumstances, the Chicago Bears say they have done it rarely and nine other teams said they didn't do it at all. Other clubs have not provided the info. on what they do, or don't do. It ain't semantics either, it's...

  10. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    No problem, I understand and you may be right, "Shanahan"might have let him go and it might not be a problem for him in the future. But nobody is under contract to Shanahan, they are under contract to Snyder and who wants to predict what he might do? I never thought he would sue unemployed...

  11. This doesn't make sense...

    Now I understand why even Mark Murphy thinks the pendulum has swung far enough in favor of the players. B.

  12. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    It may be admirable and it may just be prudent. Oral contracts are considered legally binding and when you look at it from that point of view did he even have a choice? What I'm also saying is if he had decided to take a better offer after giving Washington an oral OK then sometime down the...

  13. Redskins Add Raheem Morris to Coaching Staff

    I'll offer a feeble hope that he works out but I'd feel a whole lot better if we just grabbed some premium db coach from a proven winner rather than the ex head coach of the 4-12 Bucs. (Well, yeah he did have some success as db coach in Tampa.) And of course, having given the Skins a verbal...

  14. Shanahan on franchise QB's

    I'll have to disagree and like I said I don't want to turn this into a Tebow thread. B.

  15. Shanahan on franchise QB's

    I think that's too strong. He's been inconsistent but no worse than some other great ones who also developed slowly like Elway and some others. . He's more than a great kid, he's got a great work ethic, great sense of responsibility and can inspire his teammates. Not to mention his desire which...

  16. Shanahan on franchise QB's

    I would say that requires a LOT of supposition on your part, how can we really say it was for PC? It was a helluva load that both Shanahans staked on the subject and to Sports Illustrated no less: "I'm not sure after talking to Mike Shanahan and his offensive coordinator son, Kyle, who likes...

  17. Shanahan on franchise QB's

    Shanahan was dumb enough to stake his reputation on Grossman and Beck so there isn't much to hope for really if we're counting on his evaluation skills. He's lost a lot of steps since his early years. Shanahan spent time with Tebow too but let him get away. We need real good scouts first and...

  18. The Peyton Manning discussion

    Don Banks' piece ought to end all speculation. What a dose of harsh reality, he can't even throw more than 30 yards anymore...Sad, really but no team in their right mind should go for Manning. Oops, Dan Snyder runs our team.... B.

  19. The No big-name QB discussion

    I agree there is a need for a QB, but the most essential need I see is for a great scout. We need some guy ( like Beathard) who is a great judge of talent to start shopping for all our needs really and maybe some of those football players are on colleges no one else has heard of and no one else...

  20. Redskins make Super Bowl History

    Interesting. What we won't do to console ourselves! Yeah, it's more about the humor than anything else. :) B.
