i've heard enough of this nonsense...so i came here to vent. something that is really bottling the mind today is how sooooooo many fans/"experts" are soooooooo quick to point out how nervous they are to expect Kirk Cousins to have even a remotely similar season to last year. but that's not the worst of it. what's so mind-numbing is that these exact same people are very insistent that Dak Prescott...with his enormous 1 NFL Preseson profile, is going to have a blowout rookie season. with one, you have 9, or 10 games worth of NFL starter film against regular season defenses. with the other, you have what...6 quarters of Preseason vanilla fluff to base that off of? & yeah...i know most of this is born from a conflagration of Dalla$$ pandering, & recent Redskins team history...but seriously? "i just don't know if we can expect Cousins to perform near the level he did last year." --- "i think Dak is going to light up NFL defenses this season, & have one rookie season for the records. i think Dalla$$ could go to the Superbowl, or at least challenge in the NFC Championship game." ??????????? what the actual ****? /rant just had to get that off my chest. i'm good.

great job TSO...thoroughly enjoyed all the juicy morsels!

I'm with VoR (mostly) on this. None of what we see here, production-wise, means a hill of beans. Coaches are looking at position battles, mental acuity, & how guys react to pressurized, live, NFL game action vs practice. If i'm picking knits, there are some "little things" i would like to see improvement in. Things like tackling, catching (especially well placed footballs in the end-zone....:: glares at Davis ::), & penalties. Get better at those things, & stay healthy, & i'm golden until preseason.

Practice/OTA/TC attire is usually entirely departed from regular season gear in almost every way except for the helmets. Nothing to see here.

35 here...used to like the white pants, love the gold/yellow...white doesn't belong in our Burgundy & Gold color combo. I would be ok with burgundy, but i really just prefer the gold pants. Ultimately, i'm a sucker for the "BC" throwbacks. I absolutely love those unis. Every time i see them on highlights, & such, they just stand out to me as a pure football uni. Especially with the non-striping on the helmets. I would be absolutely ecstatic if we went with those full time....but that's just me. I am actually a little shocked that so many Redskins fans don't like the "gold" part of the "burgundy & gold" tradition, & would prefer the white pants so much. I'm just not a fan of white football pants, period. I don't like them on any team.

this looks super good also...i'm loving my Marvel Unlimited digital comics subscription. fwiw. tons of catching up on many less dimes spent.

Gonna pay them a visit TK...just down the street here from Hawthorne. Tried,& liked a few beers recently...in love with the extreme hoppy stuff, but i think i've found a new favorite. Photosphere Phil from Clown Shoes. Anyone else here try it? I love the doubles, & triples, & i'm a sucker for the higher ABV/IBU stuff, but this is a stunning in-between.

Hoky crap, this Space Cake by Clown Shoes is delicious. Also...i'm in love with Elysian: Space Dust. Next on deck is Simtra by Knee Deep, & then i plan on trying Hop Shortage. I once believed that i hated IPA's...i now know that i just need the really good stuff. Doubles, & triples all day.

That game was the absolute epitome of how one can loathe soccer. 1) ANY OTHER SPORT & both players get sent off. You shouldn't be allowed to instigate like that & not wind up losing out just as well. I won't listen to otherwise. 2) Costa should have been sent off TWICE outside of that....first for the 2 elbows, & the backhanded slap against Kos. Then for the crap he pulled with Ox. 3) why i love hockey, MLB, MLS, & NFL football. If you pull that crap in those leagues...someone's going out on a stretcher. Now maybe the AFC players didn't have the stones to go a lynchin' (in the non-racial sense)...but rest assured, someone's either getting their knees taken out, cross-checked head-first into the boards, two-footed, or chin-music if you play that busch league garbage in any of the other leagues i mentioned. That was absolute crap. If i ever see Costa, or that ****ass Mourinho on the street, you can rest assured i will accidentally spill some scalding hot coffee, & shout some slanted obscenities in the process (non-racial of course). That, or just kick the living **** out of their balls...literally.

Should be an interesting game tomorrow evening with the Galaxy vs Montreal. Drogba has been beastly (spare me the competitive balance regurgitation) since coming onto the team, & the Galaxy have some weary players from the Int'l break. Glad Stevey G got a rest though, & that Zardes didn't get any knicks against Brasil. Anywho...should be a fun one. Oh...& AFC play Stoke....or something.

Hate pumpkin anything, unless it's pie. Which is why i just tried the Bruery: Autumn Maple...brewed with yams, molasses, maple syrup, & spices. Boldly proclaims, "We don't need pumpkins in our beer!" Couldn't be more right. Kinda goes down like Sam Adams Utopias. Very delicious, & oh so strong. Mikey likes it.

Man...smdh...same ol' Arsene-al. This blows....not 1 single area of cover. I have no idea how he expects to keep the bandaids together throughout an entire Prem season + UCL + FA + that other cup that used to be called Carling. Pretty apathetic about Arsenal right now.....which means more time to focus on..... The LA GALAXY!!!

Good match... fun to watch.

Or take off Coquelin.....i would rather have the extra cover, but it looks like Wenger has elected for more offense. Here we go...

Annnnd there it is. Bellerin is having himself a match.

Time for Cazorla to come off, put Ramsey back with Coquelin, & bring on the Ox Pen? No... Also...this game isn't for Giroud. Time for Walcott as well methinks.

Glad/not glad he's staying put

3-1...

Wow.....x 3

What a save! X 2

Benteke & Gomez look game for sure.

You can see the ball clearly change trajectory & rotation.

Ramsey's on form today....i love it when he's gaming

Disagree about the Coquelin play...there was nothing in it.

Wrong....
