the royal we

The discussion here is about using "we" as a fan and journalist. Andy and Steve use the word "we" where as TK cant' stand it.

This dovetails into a discussion of psychotic, crazed fans.

Fortunately, not much discussion of the actual game this weekend.

Skins talk

We begin by talking about the pitiful Giants, who the Skins vanquished last week. Beating them doesn't mean anything compared to the Iggles this week. Riggo says the word in NY is that some people are happy with playing Manning and some are annoyed that they are going to miss the easy playoff spot.

Riggo thinks that the win, against whomever, is good for the Skins' psyche. And who the QB is wouldn't make a difference to the Giants. And maybe Coughlin's style is finally starting to wear on people.

Kwame got suspended for a game for lackadasical behavior. TK thinks that he's just star-crossed in DC.

Kiss my Asterisk

We begin by asking TK what an asterisk is and why it's used to denote things. TK thinks it's just a notation.

TK talks about Father Malloy at ND (A washingtonian). He said only twice have I been ashamed to be at Notre Dame, last Tuesday and Wednesday, when Ty Willingham was fired. Where exactly was he last week, TK asks?

Knocke shared his experiences from dealing with college administrators.

more on les boulez

WIth DA in the studio, there's more Wizards talk. DA was shocked to learn that TK was at the Game the other day (even if he didn't stay for the actual game).

Also, DA is as appalled as TK about the Redskins' playoff talk.

(my earlier post was eaten. this is done from memory. my bad. sorry)

Les Boulez

With DA in the House, it's Wizards Talk. DA was shocked to learn that MR Tony was actually at the MCI Center the other day. Not that he stayed FOR the game, mind you.

TK also expects doom on the horizon (an ACL waiting to happen) and they haven't been on the treacherous West Coach trip yet. The Airport Sheraton in Portland used to be owned by ABe Pollin's brother, so the Boulez always had to stay there. But, MJ wouldn't have any of that.

DA, like MR Tony, is appalled by all the playoffs talk on the Redskins' behalf.
