  1. Whatcha eating tonight?

    We've got a variety of chips/dips/pretzels/cheese/etc - mostly snacky stuff the kids will like. I happily found a 4 pack of My Bitter Valentine from Alewerks in Wegman's yesterday that I'm looking forward to, along with a Belgian Ale from the Bruery that I'll be drinking. You?
  2. Bread Thread

    Being the walking cliche that I am, I've been baking a LOT during the pandemic, and am excited to try bagels this weekend. Also will be smoking salmon on the Egg at the same time, but that's a different thread. Curious what baking adventures anyone else has had?
  3. Ummm... where is the Almighty, Infallible One? AKA, Ax?

    I have missed his nuggets of wisdom over the last couple of weeks. Does anyone know him off the board? Is he OK?
  4. DJax - Longterm Plans

    Sorry to link to it, but the paper that shall not be named (but will be linked to from time to time) had an interesting piece on Jackson this morning: I figured maybe we could try a conversation that doesn't revolve around bashing Kirk and/or Gruden. Then again, I tried that with Morris last...
  5. Cake or Death? - Two Things

    Yeah, I know. It's been a while. But let's be honest: the last two years haven't been much fun for Redskins fans. 2012 was ah-mazing; I've already started to repress 2013 and 14. Anyhow, it's the start of the 2015 season, and I'm sure this will get lost in the shuffle of our first gameday of...
  6. Will Morris hit 10k Career Yards?

    Interesting Grantland piece today on the paucity of runners who stand a chance of hitting 10k career rushing yards: The article asks if Marshawn will be the last. Made me think of Alfred, who was addressed thusly: Thoughts? Rest of article here: Stopped on a Dime: Could Marshawn Lynch Be...
  7. Grantland: The Year the NFL went Insane and Gave a Kicker the MVP Award

    It's Summer. What else are we gonna talk about... The Year the NFL Went Insane and Gave a Kicker the MVP Award «
  8. The Chip Kelly Gamble

    Nice read on what Chippy is doing this off season, and how a lot of it makes absolutely no sense... The Chip Kelly Gamble «
  9. Super Bowl Ads

    Pretty bad year, no? Nationwide is getting skewered, as they should be. Budweiser was pretty offensive for those of us who enjoy a good beer, not elephant piss. Thoughts?
  10. Cake or Death? - Manage This. Please.

    We've all had managers, yes? Good ones, bad ones, horrendous ones. We've all had people who exert a great deal of control over one aspect of our life, sometimes to the point that it impacts other areas of our life. I apologize in advance, but I want you to remember what it was like when you...
  11. Would You Rather Lose the Team for Three Years and Get a New Owner, or Status Quo?

    So, all hypothetical of course, let's say our choice mattered at all. Say you could vote on the following two options: -Status Quo -Snyder moves the team to LA (where they become the LA Assholes, and lose all Redskins History - ala the Browns), we lose professional football in DC for 3-5...
  12. Cake or Death? - Solution

    No one likes a complainer. We all know them. Everyone needs to vent when they are frustrated, but eventually if you aren't offering solutions to the problems, you're just bitching. And no one likes that. I vented on the BGO forums yesterday. If I offended anyone, I apologize. I am still...
  13. Cake or Death? - Big Shot Bob

    Remember Robert Horry? Dude won like 20 titles (all numbers approximate) in the NBA with the Lakers and Spurs, and always seemed to hit a key three or two during a playoff run.Horry had a knack for being in the right place at the right time, and being able to step up and deliver when it...
  14. Extra OLinemen?

    So I was reading this morning on Grantland a weekly NFL recap, and came across this nugget about the Pats/Colts game: And I wondered why we aren't trying something like this? Sub in a sixth OLineman for a TE or an extra WR. There are, of course, plenty of scenarios in a game that negate any...
  15. Cake or Death? - Hope Starts Now

    Anyone remember when Matthew Stafford was injury-prone? Could stay healthy? In his first two seasons he played 10 and three games, respectively. In the season opener in 2010 he injured his shoulder, came back on Halloween to beat... the Redskins (sigh), then reinjured that shoulder a week...
  16. Cake or Death? - The Tipping Point

    No, I'm not predicting some massive crisis for the NFL whereby the tens of millions of rabid fans who devour the NFL each Sunday (and Thursday) suddenly decide to divest themselves of the spectacle in pursuit of other, more moral endeavors. No, I'm talking about something far more serious. My...
  17. Cake or Death? - The Evolution of a Name

    I have stayed out of the Redskins name controversy because I am conflicted about it. However, after hearing Daniel Snyder give an interview, and listening to the subsequent talking heads reaction to said interview, I feel compelled to join the discussion. For once, I thought Mr. Snyder nailed...
  18. Cake or Death? - An Open Letter to DeSean

    Dear DeSean, You'll have to forgive some of us. For every one Redskins fan excitedly jumping up and down this morning upon hearing the news of your signing, there is another fan, like myself, huddled in the fetal position in the corner. We've been hurt before, you see. In fact, I was at the Y...
  19. Family

    We're going to Phoenix in the Spring to visit my wife's grandmother (any of you who know me on FB need to keep this off there, please :)), and it's already driving my wife crazy. She is having to dredge up repressed bitterness and anger about all sorts of childhood stuff, and it's pissing me...
  20. Cake or Death? - The Crazies

    As has been noted here before, huge Tim Olyphaunt fan here. I want to be Raylan Givens when I grow up. One of the better horror movie remakes lately was the Crazies in 2010 with Timmy starring. A really fun zombie-esque thriller I enjoyed. (Do I need to do a Spoiler Alert for a three year...
