TimmySmith Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 http://cbs.sportsline.com/columns/weblogs/entry/9698673 Quick hits --Jaguars receiver Reggie Williams has finally come of age. After two seasons of below-average play, the former first-round pick has been good in 2006. He had five catches for 93 yards and two touchdowns against the Redskins Sunday. One of those touchdowns came on a play in which Sean Taylor blasted him, but he held on. Another Skin hating hack giving no props. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fred Jones Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 It is about winning not praise from the media. They can give Eli all the props in the world as long as we get a win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Hell, I gotta give Williams credit. I have NO idea how he held onto that ball. ST blew him the **** up!! Reminds me of the Porter play from last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsciambi Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 That was a wicked hit. When it happened, people on the board were saying how bad our defense was. I pointed out that it wasn't a bad defensive play, just an AMAZING catch. Sean Taylor almost took his head off, and he still caught it. He deserves the props for that play.

Dan T. Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 This is quite a stretch to consider this Redskins hating. Reggie Williams has underachieved in the past, but this year he is putting together a real good season. That's news. So Prisco puts in in his random thoughts blog. What's the problem?

The fact that he called out Williams for one great catch when Santana was clearly the star of the show. In fact, he was the star of all of Sunday, and even the media agrees with that. It's insult by omission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think Santana cares what some hack at cbs does or does not say about him in a post-game column. He was the MVP of a win over one of the better teams in the NFL. I'm sure that's enough for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what anyone in the media has to say about the Redskins, good or bad, but I was just explaining why this is considered "hating" on them.

TimmySmith Posted October 2, 2006 Author Share Posted October 2, 2006 This is quite a stretch to consider this Redskins hating. Reggie Williams has underachieved in the past, but this year he is putting together a real good season. That's news. So Prisco puts in in his random thoughts blog. What's the problem? Previous Column "The Washington Redskins are always about the now. That's the Dan Snyder way. So when Clinton Portis was injured this summer, and his status for the team's opener was in doubt, the Redskins traded a third-round pick to the Atlanta Falcons for running back T.J. Duckett. Last week, Duckett was inactive. Those are the types of moves that keep teams down. Third-round picks have value. For most teams, they are cheap labor for five years. But Snyder could care less about that. He spends money each spring like he prints it. But at some point, the madness has to stop." 9/20 "The Redskins paid a lot of money to get receivers Brandon Lloyd -- they traded to get him, too -- and Antwaan Randle El. Against the Cowboys, Lloyd had one catch, his first of the season, and Randle El had two. Were they worth the money? We've been saying here for a long time that Randle El was nothing more than a good No. 3 receiver. Dan Snyder has to learn who to spend his money on." This is not cherry picking these are all the mentions of the Skins this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None mention any of the big stars of the week. Sorry, to cherry pick this quote as dissing the Skins is too thin-skinned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care what anyone in the media has to say about the Redskins, good or bad, but I was just explaining why this is considered "hating" on them. Understandable. I just have a disdain for many sportswriters these days because of the Skip Bayless "I'm going to write the most controversial thing I can think of because more people will read it" approach.

Tulane Skins Fan Posted October 2, 2006 Share Posted October 2, 2006 Did ST split open his helmet on that play? what happened? from the upper deck it looked like he cracked his helmet in half and williams was carrying two pieces back to the sideline Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
