hi, hello? am i the 10,000th poster?

We've got a little ways to go, dealer...

About 124 more to go...

i think we should not rush him back. he has had problems with it before hes been pretty durable here let him heal and come back 100 percent. We are deep at WR we should be able to manage. We still need to try and pound the rock more and more and more and play some smashmouth football

Fauria has a walking boot on his left ankle.

Let's hope he won't be asked to whiff...I mean block anyone come Sunday.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm we need a HOT topic to jump start this race. i can't think of anything.

let's see...hmmmmm...jason, who has the most sculpted body in the locker room?

no...not that

who'll still marry Britney?

if you had a choice of a head coach, gm (other than gibbs) who would it be?

if you could be the GM what trades would you like to make?

no, too sporty.

hey, jim webb is leading allen!(son of george allen)

no, too politicky.

favorite rock/rap/country music video of all time?

archieletta a full time (undersized) LB?

ladies, what beat reporter/or a local talking head would you most likely go out for a cup of coffee?

guys, same question as the ladies.

meg, funny. i tried to think of something but couldn't. what a horrible signing.

Dealer favorite country is Devil Went Down to Georgia by Charlie Daniels band. Shock you with that one didn't I. lol But man I love that sound.

http://community.foxsports.com/blogs/NFL_Czar/2006/11/07/Duckett_trade_was_a_dud

haha how about Archuleta getting certain packages. He is getting the LaVar packages which means they may try and make him miserable to get out of here alah Arrington. Archuleta said something about cover skills in an interview what cover skills he hasnt covered anyone since he has been here. Archuletacatchem he better be able to tackle since his man always catches the ball

when they start talking packages i think it means trouble for the player they are talking about unless it is a rookie they are slowly bringing along but not a high price free agent. Slowly highway 99 Andre Carter is improving i think if you put a better linebacker behind him that side of the defense would improve

¡Oye Como Va!
As Carlos shreds the guitar
Moss does defenses

Some Beach by Blake Shelton. That might could be my favorite country western song...

"9 to 5" by dolly.

and anything by faith hill. she sings right?

best rap video: m 'en m featuring dr. dre

best copy without cridit: V. ice...ice, ice baby (under pressure)

best song lyrics: i don't know cuz i don't listen to lyrics. i hear they're bad for you.

"Fauria has a walking boot on his left ankle."

Oh... I wondered where it actually hurt when someone -- say like a defensive lineman -- repeatedly stole your pride and stomped on it.

Apparently it hurts in your left foot and/or ankle. Thanks Jason.

Sorry I've been AWOL, guys. Work's got me busy... imagine that!

How bout Denny Green for GM when the Cards can him. He's (& whatever staff he uses for talent evaluation) proven he has an eye for drafting talent but his ability to put that talent to use is left wanting.

We cannot rush little Santanna back before he is ready. Hamstrings aren't like other injuries where you can just play though it. If you can't make it 'go', you just can't. It's not a question of toughness.

My #1 female sports reporter is easily Lindsay Czarniak (no idea how to spell) on Channell 4. Wow. Saw her in person at a comedy show and was blown away. Like, all I could do was laugh nervously and sweat...

Archubingus will be in packages...Grilliams says that when he doesn't like what you are about (Lavar last year).

I know CMT and BET still play videos. Do they still make rock videos? MTV is out of that business, right?

The best videos of all time were made by Twisted Sister. I Wanna Rock is a classic. Quiet Riot had some good ones, too.

Faith Hill's a looker. Don't like her singing, though...

Best Rap Video: Pop That Coochie by 2 Live Crew (It's got excellent er, um... editing.)

Best Lyrics: For Doz That Slept by Black Sheep (Simple, to the point.)

Archubingus will hopefully be in as many packages as a Jewish kid on Christmas.

INXS i thought had a good idea with the cards and all, which keeps getting copied over and over like "in your eyes" and last week's episode of LOST.

i don't know what i would say if Kelly johnson said hi to me. in person. that'd be sooooooooooo coooooooooooool.

We're at 9,896.
I believe Cotton McKnight said it best: "There's an electricity in the air, a palpable hue of anticipation. ... It's time to separate the wheat from the chaff, the men from the boys, the awkwardly feminine from the possibly Canadian."

Ten grand in our sights
So close we almost taste it
Give Cindy a raise

I want that Spurrier book! Does it come with a free visor?

"How Do You Like Me Now!" Toby Keith

Amazingly, it seems like CMT and BET are much closer in programming and even lifestyles, while Mtv has been taken over by the kids that used to get beat up in high school.

BTW, Archuletta needs to buck the eff up. He signed that dotted line, got his silver spoon, now sh*t or get off the pot.

Please Moss sit
Don't hurt your hammy anymore
We'll ride Clinton

Very funny Milehigh....I liked that one

With all those numbers in your name, bbtp, I thought you might could count...

the last one was a dud - I can't count syllables.

What a Jerk.

'I'm being told that Average Joe's does not have enough players and will be forfeiting the championship match.'

-'It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.'

MV Dame how can you leave out Mos Def? His lyrics are off the chain.

Strong Dodgeball quoting --

"Usually you pay double for that kind of action, Cotton."

RIP Arrested Development... may you share the path of The Family Guy and find your way back to us.

"Whip It" by Devo
"Black Hole Sun" by Soundgarden
"Hot For Teacher" by Van Halen
"You Got What I Need" by Biz Markie
"Ready Or Not" by Fugees

Absolutely anything by the Beastie Boys is the joint.

I hate any country unless it was made before the invention of the music video.

Oh yeah, and we are going to get stomped Sunday, I hate to say it. I can feel it like a cold sore coming on.

CLAW OUT

10K will most likely be achieved while I'm at my night class. Great job guys. Great job Jason. Great job Cindy. Great job Donald Rums... oh wait. Nevermind.

Fave country songs: If You Wont Be My Number One Then Number Two On You and I Hate Every Bone In Your Body Except Mine

OK, so they're not REAL songs, just funny names laid claim by my old friend Marvin (Wilson '92).

Real fave country song "Settin the Woods on Fire" or anything by Hank Sr

#57

Why you should let me be the 10,000th poster?

becaue i love spurrier. i really do. and i haven't accomplished anything since this blog. and i've never had anything on my "trophy shelf". actually i don't even have a trophy shelf and this will make me go out and get a trophy shelf.

Love the old Sun Records stuff, and have a killer Elvis box set from those days. Johnny Cash is the end all and be all.
Hank Sr. is awesome.
I'll take just about anything off Motorcylse Cowboy by Haggard. Killer CD.

Long Beach Dub Allstars, CA

'In 23 years of broadcasting I thought I'd seen it all, folks. But it looks like Peter La Fleur has actually blindfolded himself.'

-'He WILL not be able to see very well, Cotton.'

1) The 'You Got What I Need' Video is just outstanding.
2) I would like to submit 'My Mind is Playing Tricks on Me' by the Ghetto Boyz.
3) If we are going to discuss lyrics, it is just plain irresponsible to not mention the WU TANG CLAN.

I remind all of you of the double album:

'Uncompleted missions, throwin your best known compositions
You couldn't add it up, if you mastered addition.'
BOOYAKASHOT!

Arrested Development was just the best....
If I get the raise (don't hold your breath), I'll throw in a visor. Unless, of course, I'm the 10k poster!!!!!

Real Compton City Gs - Eazy E

David Cross is a personal hero of mine. If you guys get a chance, suck back some 'Mr. Show' episodes. Him and Bob Odenkirk are incredible.

10K, here we come.

Koool Keith was amazing. Dr. Octagonacologist changed my life

Earth People, New York & California
Earth People, I was born on Jupiter

If I win the book is yours, dealer...

On point, jm220. Can't forget Mos Def...

Cindy, you're automatically disqualified from this competition. That'd be like a ref winning Super Bowl MVP...

Half man half alligator half shark?

I was kidding!!! Of course, I'm dq'ed. I think Ed Hoculi could be a Supe MVP. The dude is buff....

Art Monk - the complete Mr. Show boxed set were the only DVDs I brought with me for five weeks of traveling through Germany for the World Cup. Unbelievable stuff. Got me through many a brutal train ride.

David Cross was great as Tobias Funke and I luv him as Russ Lieber on "Colbert."

Art - Bushwick Bill was the man.
"This year Holloween fell on a weekend. Me and Ghetto Boys was trick or treatin. Robbing little kids for bags. 'Til the law man got behind our @#$."

Wu Tang "Enter The Chambers" may be the best hip hop album of all time.

Jason, Haggard is great. Mama Tried is one of my all time favs. Sign me up for anything by Willie and/or Waylon, too.

I will say, however, don't be too quick to judge country acts from the last couple decades. You have to separate the good from the bad, but I suspect you had to do that back in Merle's day, also.

Clint Black and Alan Jackson are terrific song writers and stay true to the genre.

65 or so to go?

Digable Planets was unique and had great lyrics.

Pharcyde.... just funky beats.

Mr. Show was classic.

Arrested Development was one of the best shows I have ever seen. Incredible writing. Anyone who can make Jason Bateman funny, even while playing the straight character deserves praise.

Meg(atron), where are you?

Arrested Development and Arrested Development. Two VERY different things...

Blue Flowers.....

JLC- Where do you stand on The Highwaymen? I'm a big fan.

Also, I submit Del the Funky Homosapien for the tight lyrics pantheon.

Tennesse...Tenne...T-T Tennessee...

9935!!!!!!!!!!

This is like the Ripken streak except way more meaningless.

Skinz, you are kidding yourself if you don't think I had Digable Planets on a Casette Mix entitled: 'Make Out Mix 1' in high school.

I just told on myself...

I know it's too politicky but I gotta say of my girl and representative ah hem "Madam Speaker" woo!

Johnny Cash - Folsom Prison Blues - not quite country western but close enough to be best song.

Video - Cherry Pie - Warrant - Tawny Kitane on the hood of a car hard to beat.

I would like to submit 'My Mind is Playing Tricks on Me' by the Ghetto Boyz.

AMTTS damn bra you are bring it. How can we leave out Rakim?

Long time listener, first time caller. Just had to pitch in on the thrilling drive to 10k.

Here's some breaking news:
Amani Toomer is out for the season. He opted to have surgery on his ACL.

THANKS MV!!!!!!!!

so editor, MV Dame, dealer. hook it up!
and there'll be something nice for you. like Harris-Teeter "greek goddess" pizza.

ummmm i liked NKOB (new kids on the block). *ducks his head*

and i LOVE ed hocule. just because he gets on Peter the Clown's nerves.

Welcome, Nate! Now I know how Dick Clark feels on New Year's Eve.

Amani Toomer is out for the season.

WOW!!!!!!!!!! NFC EAST IS OURS!

Dig Plans was tight, and the old Sun Records stuff is great, I luv the old Rockabilly.

PE's "Shut 'Em Down" was a pretty cool video, and of course anything from It Takes A Nation.....

Great news Cindy. Now I have something to say to all the G Girls tomorrow.

Run DMC when they first came out. Grandmaster Flash. Come on son you they were the sh**

Tawny Kitaen on top of Jag in Whitesnake "Here I Go Again" video...

Most of you guys must be old, because I do not who the heck you guys are talking about.

That being said, Tupac, Spice 1, DJ Quick, Scarface, Eazy, Salt-N-Pepa, Wu-Tang, Backyard Band, Rare Essence, and Proper Utensils.......

9948...do I have to do this all over again for each time zone?

ArtMonktotheSticks, where can you see the weakness of a man?

Quick EPL note. I was in Paris a number of years back and I happened to watch the French League playoffs and the team from Marseille was young (AMTTS and Governor term for terrible, beat up, awful, bamafied) but somehow they were staying in the game because of a large dude who was playing up top by himself. Imagine Sean Taylor, but playing offense in soccer. He single handedly took this lousy team to the championship game. I said "That dude is the tightness. I guarantee you he becomes a super star." His name was Didier Drogba. True story.

Wu-Tang double CD, you don't even need to go to summer school.

I am from Compton.

Cindy, no more updates! When we've passed the mark and you can crown a winner, then let us know...

Thanx JM, we are leaving so many things out.

Ummm, what about Tribe? Irresponsible to not include them in a lyrical discussion.

Rakim, Run DMC, and Public Enemy were all the tightness.

My contention is that cowboy fans love LL Cool J because he is a bama.

iggles fans heart bubba sparks and bon jovi's new stuff.

Video - Cherry Pie - Warrant - Tawny Kitane on the hood of a car hard to beat

sfskin, good get. wow! i can't belee NKOB and Warrant made this blog. c'mon come out from where ever you are...you know you liked NKOB. don't be hatin! it's okay.

4th RE was the band along with EU. And if you are talking RE. You are just as old as us.

Bone Thugs, EPMD, Nirvana (love Curt rest in peace), Chuck Brown (wind me up Chuck), Baltimore House Music.

is it just me, or does anyone else think Kelli Johnson has a neck like mertin hanks???

i laugh everytime i see the name Bob Loblaw.. that show was he-larry-us.. ;p

"excuse me, do these effectively hide my thunder?"

(and where are you guys seeing the post count? i estupido)

hmmmmm, we're guesstimating. Only Cindy (Jason's editor) knows for sure...

damn, artmonksticks beat me to the Tribe reference...

also a shout out to the Roots and Blackstarr (aka Mos Def and Talib Kweli)

i think kelli johnson has a thing for shawn springs. it's obvious when she interviews him. i would hope he would take advantage of that.

Riggo just played a clip of Coach Joe saying the Reaper could play 3-4 postion on offense. Roy can never say that. Would it be a nightmare if Boofer wins? EHHHHHHH Pulling that energy back in. lol

I mean, unless you're talking about the post counts from the Redskins Insider main page...

Given my somewhat limited pedigree in all things rap, I'll have to say that I find myself thinking wistfully about GZA/Genius' 'Liquid Swords' and Wu-Tang's 'Triumph' as far as my favorite pieces goes. But I'm a dance music junkie - what do I know?

And Amani "It's Not A" Toomer "But A Ligament"'s out? Well, at least the secondary might get a break - no, wait, Sinorice is there to burn us....

whitesnake video!!! i still have to watch it in its' entirety everytime it's on vhs-1 or something.

jm, don't go to the darkside...

If Mertain Hanks has a long neck, than Yes.

JM220 - I'm not talkin about RE when Funk was wit them. I'm talking more mid-90s when White-Boy was the lead.....

Above the Law, MC Eight (g'yeah), BOSS, Method Man and ODBs 1st album, Biggie's 1st......

4th Floor, I did not know we were going to bring go-go into this! But maybe we should (PA Tapes in the back...) as this is a DC blog and go-go is DC.

I do have to call you out on one thing though....Salt 'N Peppa! Come on man! Replace them with either Gangstarr, Pete Rock & CL Smooth, or Biggie and you have a list of tightness.

Spice 1 was nice...and so was Nice and Smooth.

don't you think it's better that Moss doesn't play this week so we'll be focused more on the running game?

how 'bout them Dems!

and yeah... rummy faught is guts out

sage steele??????????? c'mon man! now you're being a Racialist!

EU, Little Benny & The Masters, Junkyard, RE, and of course the Godfather. A few of the reasons growing up in the DC area was great. Not to mention the Dischord days.

4th White Boy didn't bring it like Funk.

Marvin Gaye. Man the brother could bring it.

i like long necks. i mean hello! the prettiest animal in the animal kingdom being a girraefe (sp)!

and there're some cultures who do weird stuff to their woman to elongate their women's necks.

it's a sign of exotic beauty. :)

Dealer, we need to give you props cause when this noble quest for 10,000 was on life support, you're the one that got the ball rolling with the country-rap-video-lyrics questions. That's why you deserve the book no matter who wins...

Don't slam me so hard. My feet hurt!!! I love it.

Amani Toomer out for year with knee injury

Thank God!!!! He kills us every year

2 words:

Northeast
Groovers

aweeeee thanks MV! just for that i hope your ND wins the national championship this year.

Shawn Springs is engaged....unless something has changed....but who would not have a thing for him? He is simply divine!

How bout some love for MF Doom. Liquid Swords was dope. Enter the 36 Chambers tops the rest of the group efforts in my book. And Ghostface continues to put out solid solo material.

lisa, i agree that he's a good looking man but something about the way he talks just disturbs me.

ohh god i hope this isn't the 10Kth post.

So do I, dealer, so do I...

MF Doom is the tightness! We are myspace friends...so I got that going for me...which is nice

Sardines!!! Reagan makin' bombs, Reagan makin' bombs........

Kelli Johnson does not have a neck like Merton Hanks. I met her once at a softball game, and she's a nice girl, cute, and deserving of much better than a Merton Hanks comparison.

That's it, just trying to drum up some righteous indignation to keep things moving as the thrilling death march to 10k continues.

ohh god i hope this isn't the 10Kth post.

Dealer I vote that it should be. LMAO

we're friggin in DC and we got only one rep from the Go Go?????
c'mon where's the love fpr gogo?

I think my girlfriend (and now wife) was one of three white girls at the Go-Go Live concert at the Caps Center.

Uhhh I'm agreeing with dealer about wanting ND to win the national championship, not about Shawn Springs being a good-looking man. Just wanted to make that clear...

Our postseason hopes
Resting on trip to Philly
Dead on arrival?

jm, not that there's anything wrong with that.

MV Dame are you sure? lol

I hate ND as much as the cowgirls.

.....[random football statements]....

increase my postcount please.

No dealer there is nothing wrong with that.

The one song from Rock Base

I make 10k post on toilet. yes?

You're right JM, but I was too young back then to get in a show when Funk was playing, so I didn't have the opportunity to appreciate it. I thought I was too young to listen to Chuck back then, too.....

Nas's 1st tape, Tuesday's at the IBEX, Blackhole Fridays and Saturdays.....

haa haa...okay everyone i win.

The 10k post should be about the Skins. Remember this lil' bloggy way back in training camp when all was right with the world, we were gonna kick butt this season, and Britney & K-Fedup were still together?

Noble Quest almost complete. Then I can go home...

Man who fart in church, sit in pew.

every team in the nfc east has probs. holes. we have the least. our D showed up on sunday. we only have one hole. Q-Hole.

Holy Moly

Let me get my little list out with the names of all the people I want to thank...

dude, i can't feel my fingers.

phew!

*fingers flop over the keyboard*

This quest for 10K has been a shabingus...

isn't that what this blog is all about? Mocking others, hating on our rivals, making up nicknames (Archubingus, Gardner, Rod, Grilliams etc.), and using terminology?

I heart this blog.

WE HAVE A WINNER!!!!!!!!!

Yay! Congrats MV Dame.

Headed back to bed; wake me sometime tommorrow.

Sweet and sour like a tangerine, fresh like a box of Krispy Kremes - best lyrics ever

this is 10K! Ok, maybe not.

Uh, can we still blog?

thanks editor! where would you like that Greek Godess pizza delivered?

If, for some reason (like incriminating photos), you are unable to complete your reign as the 10k blogger, Dealer will step up.

I not get 10K?

I execute :(

do I get credit for the time change? two hours behind, 10 posts too late.

Oh well, HAIL.

OK, I can go home now. I want to have adult sodas with all of you. Lot of love in here right now!

I might sound lame, but if we're off Mainstream rap, and stick to quality, how can we ignore Das Efx. A lot of people think they were clowns, but their beats and style were awesome.

Truly Awesome Stuff:

Big Ups to anyone who said the following:
Tribe, Mos Def, Talib Kweli (or anybody from late '90s Rawkus), Wu Tang, and Pharcyde

(I hope this isn't 10 K)

Always a bridesmaid never a bride.

(like incriminating photos)

LMAO! Good one Cindy.

MV Dame congrad

There once was a benched Archibingus......

DAS EFX! good get mr. numbers!

i actually had their cd with the machine guns going off as my freshman year answering machine message.

congrats mv! and now, i want that book.

Not be like SallieMae. But damn my day was long with only checking the blog three times during work. Where have the days of checkign it every 5 min gone? Damn you boss man! Damn you

Yesterday was rough. First, the republicans get massacred at the polls. Then, Ms. Britney Spears shows that she is smarter than our beloved Coach and dumps her Mark Brunell.

WHAT IS THIS WORLD COMING TO?

Yes, you can still blog. Gotta figure out our next goal...Remember: as far as I'm concerned, you're all winners. Which sounds like something Pat Healy would say.

Congrats to everyone who typed their guts out today.

Congrats, MV! One of your best poems yet, too.

Does any one think the U should play this weekend or is it just me?

Sorry. That should be shouldn't play.

also before i forget...
yes, i accept the vice-10Kth poster position.

*holds his left hand up*
i hear by swear on my skins 2007 season to uphold my duties as the vice-10kth poster with the utmost respect and due dilligence it deserves. i acknowledge limited mastery of the english language or any other human language and my inability to spell and i promise to never use spell check.

all hail! to mv dame!

peace! out!

I feel giddy right about now after talking up some real music.

The Giants are not looking healthy right now on both sides of the ball, Dallas is reeling, and the Eagles are reeling. We have an excellant chance on catching up for the 2nd half of the season.....

2nd half predictions - NO, NY, and Carolina all have 3-5 or worse records and we sneak in, but use the front door. Remember, we still have to play Philly (2x), ATL, CAR, NO, and NY. Our season is far from over, but we need to take it one game at a time........

i'm with you on the U. there's always time for fun and games. and this weekend for that U aint it.

While I think that Miami should not play this weekend, what I really cannot believe is that they practiced today.

up here....we are all super smart bloggers, and for us, thats real important. if i have to go through something like this, i'm glad i'm going through it with the guys/girls we have here.

In any case, I'd say that a decision like that should be left up to the team captains. Though I doubt anyone on that team has the maturity to have earned that type of captain role.

What a shame. This years performance be damned, Miami needs a serious overhaul.

wow! that's shoking cindy. it seems to me that they don't have their priorities straight.

i wonder if jason will ask CP or moss about this.

Thanks Cindy and Dealer. I love sports just as much as the next person. But nothing should take the place of a human life. To me it just show bad taste and a lack of respect for human life. Thanks for letting me express that.

Don't you guys (WashPost) have a college football insider for that convo?

Oh yeah, They SHOULD play. Didn't the NFL play after 9/11? Didn't Reggie Wayne play after his bro got kilt? I read Smoot's brother died this week also.......

I think you play for him and to get back to do something normal which everyone who dies should want from the living......

i'm gonna be going away...for a bit...

but 4th: I think you play for him and to get back to do something normal which everyone who dies should want from the living......

these are KIDS. i rember when i was their age. i didn't know what death is. and neither do these kids. yes, they've probly seen death in their lives but trust me they don't know what it means for a life to end. i was 10 when i saw someone die in front of me. the body was still moving. you think i thought about death when i was in my early 20's, teenager? no. in my personal experience i didn't know what life or end of life was until i helped create a life. for others it might be different.

in this case they can't let kids/captains make that decision. grown ups, if there are any in this case, should step up and say this is a BIG DEAL boys.

as for 9-11, let's not go there. a whole different story.

sorry to cut this short.

peace out!

The NFL took the weekend off after 9/11. It moved the Redskins game against the Cards to the end of the season.

The NFL failed to do that when JFK was shot. The commish at the time, Pete Rozelle, said he regretted that decision.

As for college football, when a member of the team dies, I think it's appropriate to cancel a game. A couple years ago the OK St basketball team lost some (all?) of their players in a plane crash. I think they canceled the season.

NCAA football may be more professional than people want to acknowledge, but these are still very young men. They should give them a break.

Congratulations MV and now on to 100K! Dealer get those fingers in shape!

EU - Doing tha Bump! WOOO

Best song title and some excellent lyrics - "I left my wallet in El Segundo"

Now back to futball - Moss should rest his hammy we need him and we have a gajillion dollars invested in other receivers who managed well enough against the cowpaddies.

100k by Draft day!!!!

Megskin,

I heard Springs was engaged the end of last season but have heard nothing about it since.....maybe the engagement was cancelled...or maybe that is just wishful thinking on my part.

I guess it really depends on the situation. I was just thinking if I was on the team, I think I would want to play because I would like to rip some one's head off right about now, and playing on the field will let me do that. We all handle death different, but I've been too many funerals/known too many young people who died, you start to become numb...

These kids are not really KIDS. Sorry to inform you, but those same age KIDS are dying everyday in Iraq and Afganistan. It is unfortunette what happened, very. But, this should be (as the team looks back) a learning experince for everyone involved.

Life's a *itch, then you die. That's why I get h*igh, cuz you never know when you gonna go.......

oh yeah - Joe, If my memory serves me correct. The NFL did not move any games, AT ALL. Can someone please confirm?

Hey all. Thanks for the congratulations. Really, though, you all need to thank yourselves. We ALL typed our guts out. Yes, of course, I'll stake my claim to the title of 10,000th poster, but I don't need anything else.

Dealer, the book is yours. Cindy, hook 'm up!

Joe in Raleigh, yeah I'm glad that one won, too. I was pretty pleased with it. Feel a little empty though that H-Man ain't around to share in the festivities.

100k by Draft day, Cindy? No sweat.

JLC, best blog ever.

Period.

4th, I see your point of view and I recognize that death is something we all face.

However, a football player that's murdered and a soldier giving his life in service for his country cannot be compared. While they may be the same age, one is a terrible tragedy while the other is the ultimate sacrifice for one's country. These are very, very different.

I agree, it should be a learning experience. So give them a week off to learn from it and reflect. The business of making money for the Hurricane football program can wait 1 lousy week.

Wasn't the season extended a week? Obviously, the last game before the attacks was played Sept. 10 (a Monday) and the next game played was on Sept. 23, a Sunday. The last week of the regular season was a Monday night game Jan. 7. The Super Bowl was pushed back a week, being played in Feb. for the first time. The league decided that they liked it that way.

What is attack you idiot from? What movie?

The NFL did shift the next week's games.

I feel ya Joe. Death is one of the hardest things in life.....

From L Cooker - We will be playing @ College PArk this weekend.....

4th they did push it back a week. Everyone handles death in their own way. I respect your opinion. However, we all learn to love life and the importance of life. Then maybe we wouldn't be so quick to kill one another or jump off to war.

Let's get back to talking football. I didn't mean to change the topic. It just hard to see how the world look at death with no feelings or meaning.

I'm out. Good blog week, so far. Gotta keep up the momentum right up to Sunday.

To infinity and beyond! I'm heading home.
High five!

Today was a good good day, my faith in the republic has been a little restored, and the blog made it even better.

I will end today with this and thanks to all you Insiders for keeping the s**t eating grin going all day long.

100K by Draft Day!

Yeah, you guys were right. They did move the games back.

Anywho, Does everybody get off at 6pm or something? This thing slowed to an almost halt after #10,000.........

I am proud that my nickname "manboobs" made it into the 10K post as as it being in Limerick form which I recommended Haikuman to do in my stead for lacking creativity. This was a team win here though. Up here, there are no losers. Except Boofer. He lives in the trailer park with his mom and 42 cats. Loser.

So let me get this straight, while I was off....um....doing whatever it is I do that is so secret that I'm not even allowed to know what it is I am doing....you guys blew thru 10K?

I could say I was robbed, but I'd rather bask in the glow of the 10K post being a poem! (Well done, MV Dame -- you're like the son I never knew I had nor would claim if I did!)

-Old Man voice-"I remember the day when this blog had NO class. No literary sense whatsoever. Might as well been posting in green crayon, I tell ya. It's amazing what one 17 syllable post will do to a blog, but you wouldn't know that, you young wippersnappers. We haiku-ed uphill both ways, and had to rhyme with nuthin' but the clothes on our backs and the rags on our feet. But now, well, the Bard himself would be proud, if he twerent dead."

Long live the blog haiku -- if you can't say it in 17 syllables, you're jawing too much. Unless you need to rhyme it. Than that's ok, but please step it up and not use 'be' at the end of every line? To quote the Queen..."mmmkay?"

all I have to say is that if you look at the history of music, and you combind the lyrics then you would see that Iron maiden tops in vidios, music, and words all in one. They also know how to play together, which is what a lot of modern bands forgoten how to do.... But thats besids the point, what happened, this is supposed to be a blog on the skins, not this other ramblingof different thing. Oh and by the way go dems!!!!! And to end on a high note, I think the skins will win all but one, with the final game againce the giants to see who takes the division. my two cents

any spelling eror is for my drunkness in celibrating the vic. that the skins won this pat sunday. can't ask for a better win... expesilly againce the one team I hate more then any... The cowgirls!!!!!!!

Bizzare Ride To The Pharcyde is a great album. Del can bring it, too.
Das EFX, one hit wonders, but damn, They want EFx was huge back in the day.
Loves EU and Rare Essence, and my brother is a dj and puts out a lot of Bmore club music in his label. I grew up on that stuff but have to say I can't stomach it anymore.
Speaking of DC music. Anyone listen to Basehead back in the day? Had one album on Imago, Play With Toys, that was pretty solid.
Thanks for the race to 10,000, but up here, our work is not done. Still got half a season and we have to take this one comment at a time.

Brunell wore a hat and threw on the side, not participating in drills.

Did Campbell take the snaps? How much longer are we going to have to deal with the old man that has to take days off? I will check back in during lunch time.

Hey there, Mark was back today. They split drills Wed. from what I gather.
