Redskins Happy Time: Doug Williams Super Bowl Commercial

This has been a really crappy week or so for Redskins fans. Let's turn back the clock to a happier time.... Check out this commercial featuring Doug Williams

Dr. Z From Sports Illustrated is an Idiot

Not only does the guy pictured at the left LOOK like a complete douchebag, he IS a complete douchebag. His name is Paul "Dr. Z" Zimmerman. He is a writer for Sports Illustrated. He exemplifies hideous looks and stupidity. This guy has been actively keeping Art Monk out of the Hall of Fame for years, while that coke-head, convicted felon, Michael Irvin got in this year. In Dr. Z's words "catching 800 8-yard hooks just doesn't do it for me." Hey, dickwad, that's not all Art Monk has done. Didn't Art Monk play on some Super Bowl teams? Didn't he succeed without a Hall of Fame quarterback for years and years? Didn't he NOT get busted for drugs multiple times? To Dr. Z's credit, he is starting to realize he should consider Art Monk in his Hall of Fame voting. But, this is only because of a relentless e-mail campaign from Redskins fans. Oh, Dr. Z has also thought of Redskins fans as "nudniks" for years. Anyone who uses the term "nudnik" is a huge douchebag. Props to Hogs Haven and AOL FanHouse for reminding me of this asshole.

YouTube Diving: Blogger Sustenance

Ok bloggers, we all do it: Scour YouTube for a unique, kitschy video when too lazy to actually come up with an original idea for a post. And here we go.... Check out this vintage Redskins video, from Joe Gibb's first win against the Bears back in the day. Neil Olkewicz and Dave Butz have some sweet highlights, and John Riggins gets into the end-zone, too.

The Greaseman and Glenn Brenner: '80s-Style

Much of my childhood was spent trying to decipher the sexual innuendo contained in The Greasman Show on DC101. It was usually my big brother that translated the terms "Schnarlin'", "Squeal Like a Pig", and "Hobbling". During football season, Grease was always fired up about the Skins, often interviewing the likes of John Riggins. Good times... If you lived in the DC in the '80s, you definitely knew who Glenn Brenner was, too (pictured with Grease). He was the greatest DC broadcaster ever, bar none. The man is a sportscasting legend that everybody loved. The best thing about Channel 9. Tragically, he died of a brain tumor in 1991. During the glory days of the Redskins, these two personalities were my only source of Redskins news and hype, and I loved it. Now, who do we got? Elliott in the Morning? I don't think so.

Come on, Sandy Baby, loosen up. You're too tight...
