Part of the reason that Daniel Snyder continues to bring in coach after coach, free agent after free agent, and losing season after losing season is because its profitable for him. For as much as thousands of fans lament the sad state of the franchise, and its inability to find continuity beyond its annual coronation [...]

So, the Redskins would have us believe that because they got a flighty, minority assistant coach to conduct a token interview for a not-yet-vacant head coaching gig, that they aren’t a racist organization?
Please.
We’ve had the discussion about what’s in a name, and for all intents and purposes on their end, the Redskins have succeeded in [...]

Not that he needs that much help, because Daniel Snyder has already done such a fine job of it. But if Snyder is going to fire Jim Zorn, it will cost him much more than the remaining terms of the contract. It’s going to cost him players, fans, and likely, league-wide respectability, if there was such [...]

With Daniel Snyder on the verge of bringing in Mike Shanahan as head coach of the Washington Redskins, D.C. Landing Strip has provided us with insight into what this team could be with a little continuity.

Sure, Gregg Williams is internationally known and locally reviled as a loud mouth jerk, but what would the fortunes of the Washington Redskins have been under his tenure as head coach, instead of the 3-8 debacle preparing to face his defense this Sunday?

The Huffington Post unveiled its new sports section yesterday, and minus the lack of diversity among the writers, you can find decent coverage of daily sports content.
Of particular note to the DMV demographic is one of the page’s entrants into the “Destroy Daniel Snyder” media campaign; this one authored by Thomas B. Edsall. Among the [...]

How ironic is it that the capital of our great nation, the brick and mortar embodiment of “Of the People, By the People and For the People,” is just just now permeating the myopic brains of Redskins fans fed up with Daniel Snyder?

It may not be Mike Holmgren, but eventually, someone is going to take a lot of money to be the head coach of the Washington Redskins, and if the pile of cash is sitting on top of a contract reading “I won’t interfere” signed by Daniel Snyder, it would be wise for someone to take [...]
