The Redskins looked like they really didn’t want to be playing the dreadful Detroit Lions this week. They need to finish off their drives better. The four field goals made should have resulted in more points. Is it just me or shouldn’t Casey Rabach make the Pro Bowl this year? Start voting Skins fans. We need to get this guy in there. One of the best posts of this week was Dan Steinberg’s post about who vomits before a game. If you haven’t yet, check it out.

Mike Fiorio opines that Jason Campbell is a front runner for MVP, he is obviously overlooking one of the main reasons the Redskins are 6-2 and that would be 944 yards and 7 TDs from the great Clinton Portis.

Plaxico Burress, Giants star Wideout, fined last week $45K by the league for his actions during and after the game against the 49ers, didn’t start due to his missing a treatment session for a neck injury. I wonder if he’ll be fined again. Maybe he’s trying to get his salary under the $250K threshold in anticipation of an Obama administration.

Kudos to Mike Singletary. Mike is going to be a GREAT head coach in the No Fun League. It seems to me, based on what I’ve read since Mike Nolan was canned, that Coach Nolan liked to baby his players a little (kind of like Coach Gibbs would do with Clinton Portis).Well, that’s over guys. Just listen to the post game presser below:
Thankfully he listened and benched the dreadful JT O’Sullivan. It’s going to be a while before he can turn things around. Let’s hope the 49er brass let’s him stay on.

Pam Oliver had a senior moment:

Tired of all the Obama and McCain ads littering the airwaves? Guitar Hero has one of the better commercials out right now.

Finally, saw this video on SI. Check out the kicker as he gets laid out on the opening kickoff. Pretty cool.

I am a one of the biggest skins fans myself and I can tell you know that no one on our O-line will be making the pro-bowl unless we get some pass protection. We see pretty darn good with our run blocking, passing is another issue. Good to see skins fans!
