Roundup: Best of the Week

Looking back on a week of top-notch comments in sports. . .

-- On the nearly severed ties between the Miami Dolphins and defensive end Jason Taylor, who just finished up a stint on Dancing With the Stars:

bs2004: If you had a choice to spend the next six months with [dancing partner] Edyta Sliwinska or Bill Parcells, who would YOU choose? Nuf. Sed.

-- On the Nats' demands for $100,000 a day in damages from the District government (owners say the ballpark wasn't ready in March like it should have been):

eomcmars: Hmmm, maybe that explains why the seats behind home plate are always empty: they were never finished. And I bet the Lerners were the ones who prodded that idiot judge to sue the dry cleaners for a trillion dollars because his trousers were lost.

-- On the latest development in the saga commonly known as "Fred Davis and the Faulty Alarm Clock" (Act III: Fred Davis Apologizes):

DuhHumanity: I apologize for reading this crap! I am sorry I should have over-slept and miss all these wasted articles on such an useless Redskins news item. I will try to do better next time, I promise! Now, when do I get paid like Fred Davis? Oops, I keep forgetting that I am just an average Joe Smoe, not someone famous like Fred Davis! But I will keep posting my sleep status, just like the Washington Post, because I, also, have nothing to write about!

-- On Wizards draft/offseason chatter:

Anonymous: Eddie Jordan for Luol Deng in a trade would be sweet.

-- On D.C. United's early-season futility:

Steve Goff's Dr. Seuss-ish prose:

D.C. United does not score on the road.
D.C. United does not win on the road.
D.C. United does not score on artificial turf.
D.C. United does not win on artificial turf.
Oh, who are we kidding? D.C. United does not win anywhere.

espn: dc united hates soccer.

wow: Dont be silly. Judging from what i've seen on the field the past few games, DC United dont know what soccer is.

-- On free Pat Sajak bobbleheads for the first 1,250 fans at the Bowie Baysox game on Sunday:

Woohoo! Free bobbleheads! (Fine, that was me.)
